For wedding coordinators

Take over the seating chart
without taking on the chaos

Couples hand you a spreadsheet, a half-finished chart and a list of requests six weeks before the wedding. PlanSeats Pro turns that into one plan you control, the couple can still contribute to, and the venue and caterer can work from.

Unlimited weddings. Couples included.

The handover is where seating charts go wrong

By the time a coordinator is booked, the couple has usually started the seating themselves. There is a guest list in one file, a table plan in another, and a set of family requests that live in someone’s messages.

Your job is to turn that into something final, on a deadline, without making the couple feel the plan has been taken away from them.

PlanSeats Pro is built for exactly that stretch: bring in what exists, set the room up properly, and invite the couple back in on terms you choose.

From the couple’s spreadsheet to the venue’s floor plan

A typical takeover, from the first meeting to the final numbers.

  1. 1

    Create the wedding

    Add it to your workspace beside the other weddings you are coordinating this season.

  2. 2

    Import the guest list

    Bring in the couple’s spreadsheet with names, categories, meal choices, dietary needs and allergies mapped column by column.

  3. 3

    Set up the room

    Start from a venue you have set up before, or upload the venue’s floor plan and place the tables on it at the right scale.

  4. 4

    Invite the couple

    Give them seating-only access so they can place their guests while the tables and the room stay exactly where you put them.

  5. 5

    Finish it and hand it off

    Export the catering and dietary reports for the kitchen, escort and place cards for the stationer, and the chart for the venue.

What a coordinator needs that a couple does not

The couple plans one wedding. You are finishing several at once, each on its own deadline.

Controlled couple access

Three levels of table-layout access, plus a separate switch for the room itself, enforced by the database rather than by trust.

Outcome: The couple helps without moving the dance floor.

Every wedding in one place

The command center lists every wedding you are coordinating with its date and status, so the one two weeks out is never buried.

Reusable venue layouts

Venues you return to are set up once. The next wedding there starts from the room, the tables and the dance floor already placed.

Catering and dietary reports

Meal counts for the kitchen and a dietary report with allergies flagged, straight from the guest list the couple and you have been editing.

Escort and place cards

Printable cards generated from the final seating, so the stationer is never working from an out-of-date list.

Day-Of Mode

On the day, search any guest on your phone and see their table and seat, or open a table’s roster with meals and dietary flags.

Let the couple help, on your terms

Couples know their guests. They should place them. What they should not do, six weeks out, is move the tables your venue has already signed off on.

With seating-only access they can drag every guest into a seat, and nothing else. When you want them to rename tables or change sizes, give them the next level. The room itself has its own switch.

The invitation they receive carries your business’s branding, so the tool feels like part of your service rather than one more app they were asked to learn.
