Why use a seating chart tool?

Seating chart maker vs. spreadsheets and design tools

Spreadsheets can store guest names. Design tools can draw tables. But neither is built around the actual job of deciding who sits where.

PlanSeats keeps your guest list, floor plan, tables, and seating assignments connected, so a change to the seating plan doesn't mean rebuilding everything somewhere else.

Spreadsheets and design toolsPlanSeats
Guest list and layout live separatelyGuests and floor plan stay together
Seat changes require manual updatesDrag and drop guests into new seats
Tables are static shapesTables are part of the seating plan
Changes can mean reworking multiple filesUpdate the plan in one place
Built for general-purpose planning/designBuilt specifically for seating

Your seating chart will probably change before the event. The tool you use should make those changes easier.
