What is a Wedding Seating Chart?

Creating a seating chart for any kind of event (especially a wedding) makes the whole process of visualizing where guests will be positioned within a space, so much more straightforward. It allows you to take a list of names and turn it into an accurate depiction of how the room will actually look. This graphical representation is almost a must for any large-scale event, especially when organizing a something as grand, and important as a wedding.

Wedding Seating Chart Etiquette

Diplomacy is key when arranging wedding guests for a reception, or ceremony. Not all guests will know, get on with, or even like each other! Which is why it’s critical to think clearly, and carefully, about where each guest will be seated. Otherwise, you may end up with little pockets of anarchy, rather than a room full of celebrations!

Beyond dealing with any tricky relationships, it’s wise to consider family first when seating guests. For instance, yourselves, your parents and your partner’s parents should share a table at the reception, unless you opt for a sweetheart table for just the two of you.

Grandparents, siblings not in the wedding party, and the officiant and their spouse should also join the head table. That is assuming your parents aren’t divorced, which may mean you need to create another ‘head table’, which’ll allow parents to sit apart.

How to Arrange Wedding Guests

If you’re unsure of the personalities, or interests of all your guests, gather your close family together when preparing ideas for your seating layout. As they’ll be able to enlighten you on just what everyone is like. Getting a clear picture of who knows each other, and who will get along, is key to creating a harmonious reception.

A lot of your guests will not know each other well before sitting down together at the reception. This can be discouraging for some, but it often can’t be helped when arranging such a large number of people.

Wedding seating chart builder

To help guests quickly spark up conversation with one another, consider the work, interests, and ages of loved ones when pairing people together. By thoughtfully matching guests up, you’ll quickly find that on the night they have lots in common. And that’ll hopefully avoid any awkward silences.

If you’re struggling to remember which guest should, or could go with another type of guest, consider starting a color coded system on your invite list. By having a multicolored excel template and a wedding seating chart maker such as ours, that allows you to easily incorporate colors into the template, you’ll be able to quickly match up compatible guests.

How to Organize Wedding Reception Tables

A massive benefit of using a seating scheme, is that it allows you to clearly see which type of table arrangement will work best for your reception. Rectangular and circular are the two most popular table shapes. But there are many others, such as family style, which is great for informal weddings. Or there’s the U shape design, an arrangement that lends itself to intimate celebrations.

Consider thoroughly the type of table arrangement you choose, as it will greatly affect the interactions guests can have with each other.

Seating plan template

For instance, round tables are much-loved as they, depending on their size, allow all guests to interact with each other. Whereas rectangular tables, due to their long shape, often create two or more groups of guests. But, this shape of table is perfect if you have a large guest list, as it’ll allow you to fit numerous guests on one table, and not take up too much space within the room.

How to Organize Wedding Ceremony Seating

There are many ways you can configure your wedding ceremony seating chart , but typically the style you select will depend on how formal you want the occasion to be. And importantly, where it’ll be taking place. As some wedding ceremony venues, such as churches, will have set, structured seating in place.

If this is the case, then all you need to worry about is seating guests appropriately within the space. With VIP’s such as parents, grandparents, close family and the wedding party all sitting in the first and second rows. Typically, each family sits on either the left or the right-hand side of the marrying couple.

Illustration edit wedding ceremony chart

In the rows after immediate family and the wedding party, sits the rest of the guests, in order of importance or closeness to the couple. With this in mind, it’s good to use a wedding seating chart when planning your ceremony, as it helps to alleviate any confusion your guests may feel when they arrive. Unsure of exactly where, and which side they should be sitting on.

Illustration ceremony layout

By having a clearly laid out seat map, you’ll also be able to evenly distribute your loved ones. Something couples often regret not doing when they look back at their pictures, and see big gaps of guests, or uneven spaces.

Organize people ahead of time using a wedding seating chart app or tool, and you’ll find the whole ceremony experience is a lot smoother.

How to Use a Wedding Seating Chart for your Reception

Starting any kind of project with a blank page is typically pretty daunting. Which is why we created our wedding seating chart template. A useful starting off point that shows straight away the types of elements usually included in a wedding reception, and a suggestion as to where guests could be placed. From there you’re free to customize as you wish.

The best place to start when assembling your wedding reception seating chart , is with the layout of your tables and chairs. As the style you choose will determine what else can be placed within the space, while also dictating the guest experience.

When deciding between table shapes, it’s important to reach out to your wedding venue, and request the full layout specifications of the reception space. That way you’ll know how much room you have, not just for tables, but also the dance floor, stage, decor elements etc.

When you’re ready to place guests at their tables, you’ll quickly realize how powerful a wedding seating chart tool can be. A huge advantage of our seating chart maker, in particular, is that it allows you to simply import your guest list spreadsheet from Excel, and then instantly place invitees at their appropriate tables.

Example of interface for catering layout

Before, or after guests are positioned on the floor plan, you can personalize their avatars to better represent each guests’ individuality. For example, you can highlight the age group each guest is in, such as adult, teen, or infant. Following that, you can signify skin color, gender, and which side of the couple invited them — this final selection automatically gives avatars a signifying color.

Once guests are seated around the tables, and you’re happy with the arrangement, it’s time to place the rest of your decor! With our online wedding seating chart tool, you can drop and drag all the major focal points and elements you’d expect to find at a wedding reception right onto your chart!

To get you started, our template features items most couples would consider standard, such as a dance floor, stage, and restrooms. So all you have to think about is adding the fun stuff! Like smoke machines, DJ booths and your cake table!

Why a Wedding Seating Chart is Such a Useful Tool

Every guest is different, and when planning a wedding with lots of loved ones, that can lead to confusion. Food choices and intolerances are the perfect example, as each of your guests will likely need to choose their main course and could potentially be allergic to something on the menu. This information is vital for those in your catering team, and should be presented in a style that can be understood quickly by them.

By having a clear seating scheme for your reception, with all the important information about each guest clearly visible, the organization of your wedding will run a lot smoother than without.

Moreover, by utilizing the seating chart, it becomes effortless to create table seating cards for each layout's table. Afterward, you can produce an attractive grid of cards and display them on the wall, aiding guests in finding their designated places with ease.

The Benefits of an Online Wedding Seating Chart Maker

When planning a wedding, at the very least, there will be two people organizing things (hopefully!). But typically, a wedding is not simply planned by the marrying couple. Mom, Dad, best friends, brothers, and sisters are all usually drafted onto the big day team to help in some way.

What’s great about using an online wedding seating chart, such as ours, is that everyone can share their input in real-time.

Wedding Planning Assistant is an online, cloud-based tool that helps couples plan every aspect of their celebration, not just their seating arrangement. From creating a free wedding website, to organizing a checklist and preparing place cards – you can do it all on our site, for free!

Illustration editor of seating chart

When it comes to the seating chart for your wedding, being online, with all the information synchronized in real-time, is a game changer. For instance, whenever there’s an update to your guest list, anyone on your team will instantly be able to see it.

Maybe Mom has finally got an RSVP from your cousin in London, and has now found out she’s gone vegan. Mom can easily update that guests’ RSVP status, adding in her dietary requirements and potentially the meal choice too.

Having a wedding seating chart that’s online and instantly updatable by your whole team, stops anything being forgotten, and helps everyone stay on the same page, at all times. Key when trying to organize such a large group of people, each with needs and desires.

Ensure that Everything Fits in the Room Without Estimating

Experimenting with a seating chart, placing guests around tables and dropping elements of decor is fun. But without real-world measurements, there’s no way of knowing if your table design will actually fit within the space. Which would be a disaster!

Thankfully, our wedding seating chart tool allows you to easily, and accurately construct a scaled down version of your reception room. While also giving you the ability to precisely measure just how far each element (table, stage, large piece of decor) actually is from one another.

Then, once you’ve mapped out exactly where everything should be, there’s no need to worry about scaling your wedding table seating chart to fit on a poster board. Because our tool will automatically scale your plan to fit on either a portrait or landscape A1 page. The perfect size for your caterers, planners, venue or yourselves to print it out on .

All the key information will be visible, and you’ll get a clear feel for how the space will actually look.

Export Your Wedding Seating Chart Template to Excel

To serve your wedding guests successfully, your vendors will need as much information as possible, and have it displayed in a format that works for them. Usually, a wedding seating chart will work perfectly for them, as it’ll allow them to explore the room and get a fantastic overview of your guests.

Interface of seating chart Excel

But occasionally, it’s more useful for vendors to scan through a list of your guests, and filter out the information they require. And that’s precisely what our wedding seating chart template can do, with its export to Excel function via your guest list! This straightforward to use tool allows you to download your full list of guests, with all the information clearly laid out in pre-formatted columns.

Your caterer will love how easy it is to access the information they need about each of your guests, and it’ll (almost) eliminate any possibility of mistakes in service. But it’s not only your caterer who will benefit greatly from having your wedding seating chart template exported to Excel . Your planner, coordinator, and your wedding stationers will all do better at their jobs with this function.

Create Your Wedding Seating Chart Poster in No Time

And while we can’t make the job emotionally easier to deal with, we can make its operation, and subsequent application onto the seating chart, seamless.

Every guests’ icon can be quickly customized to represent their gender, race, or age bracket.

Because our platform has been designed to be collaborative. A place to build something together, with family, friends, but also wedding professionals.

If you’re at the very beginning stages of wedding planning, and you’ve recently hired a planner, or coordinator to help you put things together.

Without regular check-in’s and confirmations, things can get forgotten, and a once well-planned timeline can begin to slide.

Avoid over-running your schedule, and always be up-to-date with what your planner is doing, by creating a project together on Wedding Planning Assistant. And our wedding seating chart app offers the perfect example for why you should.

This task in particular is typically completed within the final stages of wedding planning, and the process usually goes through many iterations before it’s ready. These last couple of weeks are frequently a stressful time for couples, with guests often sending RSVPs back at different times, dropping out last minute, or suddenly requesting special requirements. It’s a lot to deal with and can be hard to keep track, especially when you have a planner or coordinator who also needs updating.

By using our online wedding table seating chart , you’ll be able to keep your whole team in the loop, including professionals, at all times. As soon as someone confirms their attendance, you or your planner can place them in the appropriate place on the seating scheme. Along with their unique set of requirements. Nobody skips a beat, nothing gets forgotten.

Wedding Seating Chart Ideas

Our wedding seating chart is an incredible reference to have when wedding planning, and your vendors will love its usability. But on the day, your guests will need something that’ll show them where their seats are. And there are so many ways you can present your reception plan that’ll not only coordinate nicely with your theme, but also delight your guests.

After only a quick Google search for wedding seating chart ideas , we’re sure you’ll discover a limitless amount of inspiration for your reception, or ceremony. And that’s without even looking at Pinterest! Having such a wealth of decor ideas at your fingertips can be a massive bonus when trying to find the perfect look. But it can also become a little confusing.

Our advice is to start, and concentrate on functionality. First and foremost, your wedding seating chart is there to direct guests to their place. It needs to be clear, obvious and enable loved ones to find their name and corresponding table in seconds. If not, you may end up with a lot of confused guests and a bit of a bottleneck, as people desperately try to find their name on the board .

Typically, the best way to avoid having lost guests is to simply list out your tables in numerical order, with the names of each guest under their corresponding table number. Whether you’ve got three tables or twenty tables, this system works. As does listing guests alphabetically, alongside their table number.

As long as the sign is big enough, and the font is clear. An A1 size board is typically a good size, but it will depend on your space and the number of tables/guests.

Once you’ve formatted the reception plan, found a font that works and maybe added a background or floral element. It’s time to find a pretty frame, an easel, and set it up somewhere guests will spot it easily.

Alternative

The seating chart can be referred to by a multitude of alternative terms, representing its diverse range of designations. Some of the possible alternative names for the seating chart may include but are not limited to: seating plan, seat arrangement, seating diagram, seat chart, seat map, seating layout, seating scheme, and seating assignment. With such a wide array of names, individuals can choose the terminology that best suits their preferences or aligns with common usage in their particular context or region.

How to Use Seating Charts

There are a number of uses for seating charts. For a concert venue, a seating chart is useful to determine which tickets have already been sold and which are still available for purchase. For a formal event, such as a wedding, the wedding seating chart assists guests in finding their table for the evening. Assigned seats in a classroom setting benefit the instructor in taking attendance and learning the names of students.

How to Make a Seating Chart

Here are some tips to use in creating a seating chart for an event.

  • Make it legible. The seating chart should be clear and easy to read.
  • Keep it simple. Organize and create it so the viewer can easily pinpoint their name and their assigned seat. People shouldn't have to look too hard to find the information.
  • Provide order. Place the names in some type of order. You may group names alphabetically or by table number. Since we read left to right, it may be best to also organize the seating chart in a similar fashion.

Recent post, jeff kear · owner, planning pod, how to select the best event seating chart software for you.

A critical and often underrated component of event planning and management that can have a huge effect on audience engagement is event design and, if you have an event that involves reserved seating, event table layouts and/or seating charts. And although you can sketch out your design ideas on a sheet of paper, to have a truly representational, to-scale rendering of your event layout and seating capacity for distributing to clients, staff, participants, volunteers and vendors, a digital seating chart planner gives you the tools you need to build professional designs that impress and leave no room for error.

With that said, when you are creating event table layouts and seating charts, there are four primary criteria that you should look for when starting to evaluate online seating chart generators.

  • Accuracy - You want your seating charts and floor plans to represent what you will get in real-life so that you aren’t cramming too much equipment, tables or chairs into the allotted space. In addition, you want a tool that lets you include as many event details as possible regarding layout elements like different table shapes or architectural characteristics of your room or space, whether you are hosting your event in a banquet hall or concert hall.
  • Aesthetics - Because we are usually showing seating chart arrangements and event designs to our team, peers and clients, we want to make a big impression and don’t want them to look slapdash. A full-featured event seating plan software platform lets you precisely and colorfully render everything from detailed wedding seating charts with guest table assignments to galas or corporate events that have designated seating for general admission and VIP audience members.
  • Time - We are all pressed for time, and although we want our event seating charts to look professionally designed and be accurate, they shouldn’t take hours to build. The best seating chart makers give you the tools to create highly accurate and aesthetically pleasing designs in a short span of time (usually less than an hour).
  • Ease-of-Use - Most popular event floor plan tools offer drag-and-drop functionality so you can simply place elements on the layout or drop attendees onto selected seats (or drag them off seats to remove them). But the best event seating chart software platforms contain features like auto-format for building table layout grids instantly, reusable seating plan templates, libraries of favorite elements and other features that simplify building seating charts. In addition, some table plan software apps are also mobile-friendly and can be used on both computers and mobile devices.

So what should you look for when evaluating such a tool for building the perfect seating plan? Consider these seven attributes.

1. Guest List Management

What comes before adding guests to seats in a layout? Managing contact information for those guests in an organized fashion so your seating plans are detail-rich with items like names, RSVP status and meal choices. Guest list managers can also come with features like at-the-door check-in apps and Excel file downloads. And for wedding planners, there are also handy features like table number labeling for easily identifying at what table each guest is seated; downloadable place cards and escort cards; and separate lists for rehearsal dinner, wedding ceremony and wedding reception.

2. Registrations and RSVPs

And what comes before a guest list full of rich information? Collecting that information via customizable event websites equipped with event registration / ticketing and RSVP forms that electronically feed that data into your guest list. An added bonus is the ability to collect registration payments and detailed responses to custom questions; the ability to set up multiple ticket types; and even allowing registrants to select their preferred seat.

3. Flexibility of Event Type

Top event seating planner tools allow you to build layouts for any type of event, including wedding seating charts, banquet table setups and seating plans for dinners, banquet style galas, parties, conferences, concerts, classrooms and corporate meetings and events.

4. Adaptable to Any Venue and Space

Do your event spaces typically have unique contours and dimensions? Solid event seating plan software will allow you to easily replicate those dimensions so you can build restaurant seating charts for patrons as well as seating plans for hotel meeting rooms and ballrooms, reception halls, conference centers, wineries and even arena-like layouts for concert halls and theaters.

5. Large Library of Elements

Any seating chart maker worth its weight should offer a variety of table and chair element options (including options for round tables, half-tables and head tables), but the more advanced ones will also offer architectural elements like walls, floors and doors; staging elements like podiums and lighting; A/V elements like amplification systems; and exposition elements like trade show booths and aisles.

6. Virtual Collaboration

This is where Web-based event seating planner apps excel because they have the flexibility to allow others to access to seating charts via the Internet to provide feedback and even create and edit shared designs. This allows an entire team of planners and vendors (like caterers and rental crews) to see designs ahead of time. An added bonus are features that offer 3D walkthroughs to enable users to fully visualize the setup from one or more focal points as well as other integrated event software tools for collaboratively managing budgets, timelines, etc.

7. Customization

If you are seeking to make an impression on vendors or internal / external clients, customizations will help you sell through your ideas. Such features can include customizable colors and fonts as well as background uploads. A timesaving feature to look out for is the ability to create seating chart templates for designs or setups you use repeatedly.

As you can see, the best event seating chart software programs offer a wide variety of features to simplify the process of building seating plans while providing maximum flexibility so you can add many details and integrate with other event management tools that you may need.

Before I began teaching in law schools, I was an IT director and law librarian. In that role, I often introduced software solutions to the faculty and staff, trained them how to use it, and helped with any issues that arose. One of those solutions was seatGEN. From the administrative side, seatGEN is quick to set up and deploy, and training is easy.

When I started teaching, I became a user of seatGEN for the first time. Over the years, I trained hundreds of students and faculty on various applications. I now had to teach a semester-long course. Frankly, I was nervous.

As a novice professor, I read many articles and books on how to teach a law school course. A few discussed the use of seating charts . I had originally intended to let students sit where they wanted, and to distribute a paper copy of the seating chart on the first day of class for the student to indicate their seat. I planned to then go back to seatGEN and drag and drop the student’s photo onto the respective seat. What I did not like about that option was that often there were more seats than students, and they could be spread out far from each other, gathering, most often, toward the back of the room. I could force them to move up, but they often remained far from each other.

I decided to listen to the experts.

Free Class Seating Chart Maker

SEATING CHART

I put the research to work, and I assigned seats prior to the start of class. I then posted the seating chart in my course page so students knew where to sit before the semester started. This allowed me to balance diversity and gender throughout the class. I also hoped to encourage new friendships. The greatest benefit to me was knowing – on the first day of class – wherein the classroom the students would be sitting. This allowed me to address volunteers and cold call on the very first day.

The Flash Card feature was tremendously helpful. Before the semester, I used the cards (they have the students’ pictures on them) to learn names and faces, and to practice pronunciation of sometimes difficult names. I soon discovered an additional use for the Flash Cards, described below.

I used the tent cards to take attendance, track class participation, and preparedness, tardiness, etc. They also helped students learn the names of their colleagues, which supported class discussion.

THE PROCESS

I explained to the students on the first day of class, that I would leave the tent cards on a table at the front of the classroom. It was their responsibility to pick up their card (and only their card) at the beginning of every class and to return it to the table at the end of class. Five minutes after class started, I would then pick up any cards left on the table, and those students would either be marked absent or late.

If a student picked up another student’s card, and that student was absent or late, both students would be marked absent or late. I’ve never had to enforce this rule. It might even be unnecessary, but I wanted to shut down the possibility up front.

I also explained to the students that if they were unprepared for class, I would make a note inside their tent card so they knew where they stood on class participation throughout the semester.

Also, to get to know the students a bit, I would ask them to answer 4-5 questions (that I wrote on the board) inside their tent cards, such as: do you go by another name, what is your hometown, what was your major, do you have other graduate degrees, what is your relationship to the law (but don’t tell my person issues) such as “my mother is a lawyer,” “I’m a paralegal,” and what kind of law they want to practice.

This process worked extremely well. I never had a grade challenged. I never had to take attendance or pass a sheet or generate a QR code. It was simple, low tech, and worked. Giving credit where credit is due when I worked at Harvard Law, I saw a professor use tent cards in class. He, too, used them for attendance taking. SeatGen allowed me to upgrade and update the process. Most importantly, we could print them, instead of writing them by hand.

FLASHCARDS REVISED

I also found a new use for flashcards. I could shuffle the deck and pull 10-15 cards at random to use for the cold call. I’d put the cards for the student who was unprepared or tardy at the top of the deck after class. I would then make notes inside the student’s tent cards. I would then set those cards aside, and grab another batch for the next class. When the deck was finished, I’d reshuffle and start again.

I always kept the flashcards. I made some notes on the back, which was handy when I was later asked to write letters of recommendation.

  • How to Design Event Floorplans
  • Popular Seating Chart Styles

Popular Wedding Seating Styles

  • Popular Corporate Seating Chart Styles

Allseated provides the seating chart and seating plan software tools needed to efficiently manage the wedding table seating and floorplan details for all types of events.

The seating chart creator tools offer a competitive advantage in event planning with virtual and collaborative benefits, making the planning process easier than ever before.

Before using a seating chart maker to arrange a wedding seating chart, there are a few important steps to take when planning an event. First and foremost, it’s critical to know the event budget and guest count at the start of the planning process. These two details outline the event so that a proper venue can be selected. Only once a venue is selected can you move forward in  designing a floorplan  and using the wedding seating chart tools to create the seating arrangement for the event.  Guest list management, floorplan layouts, and seating chart templates require organization, accuracy, and efficient collaboration between vendors and clients to ensure a seamless day of the event. Using Allseated’s seating chart creator and floorplan layout tools makes it easy for vendor teams and clients to work together.  In order to easily design an event seating chart, there are steps and strategies for event planning to take prior to getting started.

Allseated offers many collaborative planning features for wedding seating planning. Once you create an event in Allseated, you will have access to the guest list feature, floorplan design tools, wedding seating chart tool, timelines, reports, and more! In this article, we take a deep dive into planning an event using Allseated, how to design the seating chart, and cover popular seating chart styles for all types of events.

Establish Guest List

Establishing the event guest list during the initial phase of planning is one of the most important aspects of creating a seamless, more efficient process. Allseated’s state-of-the-art guest list tool  increases organization and operational efficiency. The guest list is an added value to clients, allowing users to do the following:

  • Keep an accurate count and list of all invited guests in one place.
  • List mailing information
  • Group guests into categories (such as friends, family, and colleagues) for even more organization.
  • Track RSVP’s
  • Assign meal preferences for each guest, preventing the chance of error.
  • Specify guests for multiple events such as wedding-related events (bridal showers, rehearsal dinners, and day-after wedding brunches).
  • Arrange seating charts directly from the guest list.
  • Generate reports

Design Event Floorplan

An event floorplan with wedding seat plan can be designed once the event venue is selected and a template is chosen within the event you create in Allseated.

Using Allseated to design a floorplan offers you many features and tools including the ability to:

  • Select your tables, chairs, objects, and furniture
  • Customize spacing
  • Join tables and/or knock off chairs
  • Include spacing for dance floors and entertainment areas
  • Mark exits within the layout
  • List any planning details and/or notes directly within the floorplan
  • Save favorite objects and templates for future layouts
  • Create custom groups and save to favorites
  • Upload files (including JPG, PNG, PDF) to floorplan

A major benefit to an event planning business is using Allseated’sseating chart creator tools for the ability to view the seating layout in 2D and 3D. At any time during the seating chart design process, it’s easy to switch from 2D viewing to 3D viewing to take a virtual walkthrough of the layout. The 3D viewing options include Bird’s Eye viewing which allows you to see your event seating chart in 3D from an above view. It’s also possible to virtually walk through the event layout in 3D via 1st Person View as if you were taking a virtual walkthrough of your event floorplan layout. The many varieties of 3D seating chart viewing options help to ensure that you’re 100% satisfied with the event or wedding seating chart during the design process. This makes the day of the event seamless, accurate, and in line with your event vision.

Digital Seating Chart

Once RSVPs are received and the floorplan layout is created, easily create an online seating chart. The seating tab within your event provides you with access to your floorplans and guest list. Using the seat chart wedding tool, seat guests within the floorplan layout by selecting guests from the guest list and placing them at the desired tables. It’s simple and efficient to select a guest, then click on a specific table in the floorplan, to easily seat the guest. When creating your event or wedding table seating chart, you may wish to seat guests at specific seats at specific tables. Allseated offers you the option to do this by first placing them at a table, clicking that table, and assigning the guest to their specific seat.

Seating Chart Styles

From wedding seating charts to  corporate event seating , designing seating layouts within Allseated is simple and efficient.

There are a few factors to keep in mind when selecting the right event  seating style  for an event. Along with venue layout and guest count, it’s important to consider the type of event and the event’s needs.

Popular Corporate Seating Styles

Below are some of the most popular corporate event seating chart styles and what purposes they serve for an event within an event layout.

U-Shaped Seating

A U-shape configuration seating style promotes interaction between event attendees and allows for a focal point or presentation area within the layout. U-shape seating is suitable for smaller groups (up to 30 attendees) and ideal when there is a speaker in the center of the floorplan or at the open end of the ‘U’.

seating chart software

Classroom Seating

Classroom seating is and ideal seating chart design for lectures, seminars, and meetings where note-taking or the use of a laptop is required. Attendees do not face one another within a classroom seating style so interaction between them is limited.

Board Room Seating

Board room seating (and conference seating) offers one long, rectangular table for guests to sit facing each other within the event layout. Board room seating is ideal for small corporate meetings where discussion and brainstorming as a group is the priority of the event.

boardroom

Auditorium Seating

An auditorium style seating arrangement features built-in seats or rows of chairs that focus on a single point in the layout, which is usually a stage and podium.

auditorium

Cabaret Seating

For cabaret seating styles, it is customary to place the chairs in the floorplan in a U-shape around a table with an opening that faces a chosen focal point.

Hollow Square Seating

The hollow square style looks exactly how it sounds and is similar to banquet and U-shaped seating styles. In a hollow square seating layout, guests can see each other while still maintaining a comfortable distance. This seating style is ideal for eating meals during a meeting or working with laptop computers.

There are many wedding seating style options when creating a wedding floorplan layout. While many wedding couples think that a dozen round tables is the only way to seat guests, there are other wedding seating options to choose from for the layout. Below are the most popular wedding styles chosen by wedding couples. Keep in mind that the seating style should complement the venue, guest list, and overall event vision.

Circular Table Seating

Circular tables (round tables) are one of the most popular seating styles for weddings. This classic wedding seating is easy to arrange circular tables for large or small events and the seating arrangement style works for a wide variety of venue layouts.

seat assignment generator

Banquet Seating

Banquet seating is an elegant seating arrangement that is great for maximizing spaces. Banquet seating is perfect for long narrow venues or even for layouts in which wedding couples want to create a nice, long, learn look. With this style of wedding seating, guests are positioned around the circumference of the table facing inwards. Seat important guests (VIPs, the wedded couple) in the middle of the room so they’ll be at the heart of the action, Banquet seating encourages guests to interact with one another. Remember to choose tabletop decor and centerpieces carefully as to not interrupt the flow of conversation at each table.

seat assignment generator

Family Style Seating

Family style seating generally refers to a wedding seating layout with one long rectangular table or several rows of longer tables within the floorplan.

seat assignment generator

Mix and Match Table Seating

If you can’t decide between using round or rectangular tables within your layout, use both! The mix and match table seating style is elegant, unique, and fun, and works with most venue layouts and sizes.

U-shape seating is a popular seating style for many types of events. This seating layout configuration promotes interaction and allows for a focal point within the floorplan.

seat assignment generator

At any time during the process of designing the floorplan and seating chart,  it’s easy to switch from 2D viewing to 3D viewing to take a virtual walkthrough of the layout. The 3D viewing options include Bird’s Eye viewing which allows you to see your floorplan in 3D from an above view. Alternatively, you can also walk through the event seating plan in 3D via 1st Person View as if you were taking a virtual walkthrough of your floorplan. The many 3D viewing options help to ensure that you’re 100% satisfied with the layout before the day of your event.
