A dinner with speeches, a party where people stand, a room with a stage, a celebration with a kids table. Choose the layout that matches how your event runs, open it as your own, and seat your guests.

Seated with speeches needs a stage and sightlines; a standing party needs high-tops and space; a family event needs a kids table near the fun. Open the layout that already does that.
The event’s name matters less than how the evening runs.
Galas, awards and fundraisers need every table facing the front. The gala and fundraiser layouts are built around the stage, and the gala page adds a long-table version.
See the gala layoutsRectangular tables facing a presentation table for a company dinner, or a head table and long tables for a formal banquet.
The mitzvah layout puts a long kids table by the dance floor and rounds for the adults, the shape most family parties take.
Bar mitzvah seatingThe cocktail party layout spreads eight high-tops through the room, for a reception where most guests stand.
The shower and birthday layouts suit twenty to sixty guests with a gift or cake table in view.
The rehearsal dinner layout seats two families at long tables in a private room.
Rehearsal dinner seatingStart with what happens in the room. If people will watch something, a speech, an auction or a performance, choose a layout that faces the front. If they will mingle, choose one with fewer seats and more space.
Then check the count. A layout is a starting point, so the closest one is good enough: adding or removing a table takes a moment once it is open.
Last, look at the room you have. If the venue sent a floor plan, upload it behind the layout and move the tables onto it before anyone is seated.
Build a layout from scratch when no template is close.
The full tour of how a seating plan comes together.
Six reception layouts, from 30 guests to 170.
A downloaded event layout is a drawing. Every time the headcount moves, someone redraws it, and the seating is kept in a separate list.
A PlanSeats layout holds the room and the seating together, so a new table or a late guest is one change, and the venue sees it through the same link.
There are layouts for galas, fundraisers, company dinners, banquets, mitzvahs, birthdays, cocktail parties, showers and rehearsal dinners. If none is close, start from a blank room.
Yes. Once a layout is open you can add any table shape, move tables and change their sizes.
A template’s tables do not count toward the Free plan’s 4-table limit, so you can open any layout on Free. Free covers up to 20 guests; for more, the Planner plan is $8.99 a month.
Send them a view-only link, or export the chart as a PDF or image they can print.
