How to sit your guest: Wedding day edition
When planning a wedding, the chart is often underestimated, but it plays a crucial role in the flow and overall experience of your day. A well-designed seating plan ensures that meals are served smoothly, conversations flow naturally, and guests feel comfortable and included.
A thoughtful planning takes logic and it is the perfect opportunity to enhance your celebration. The layout of your seating chart depends on your wedding style, venue, and guest count. Here are some of our most successful arrangements:
Round tables are classic and elegant: they are perfect for traditional ballrooms or gardens, they encourage conversation and works best for medium to large guest lists.
Long banquet tables add a rustic and modern style, ideal for an intimate wedding that lets everyone interact with each other and with the bride and groom.
Mixed seating for a more eclectic and dynamic experience, combines rounds, rectangles and lounge-style seating, perfect for flexible and multi-space venues.
Keep this additional tips in mind:
Make it stand out
Considere guest relationships
Keep accessibility in mind
Use placeholders or escort cards
Plan for flexibility
