Lay out tables the way they will actually sit in the room. Add round, banquet, U-shape and head tables to scale, drop them onto your venue floor plan, and hand the same layout to the caterer, the venue and your seating chart.

Three steps from an empty room to a layout the venue can set up from.
Set the room dimensions or upload a photo or PDF of the venue floor plan. Tables you place are drawn to scale on top of it, so the layout matches the space you actually have.
Add round, rectangular, banquet rows, U-shape, sweetheart and head tables, each with the seat count and size you choose. Duplicate a table to fill a row in seconds, and drag the dance floor, bar and DJ booth into place around them.
The same tables carry your guest list. Import names, drag them to seats or auto-assign by group, then share the layout with the venue and the chart with everyone else.
Upload the venue floor plan and place tables on top of it at their real size, so spacing questions get answered before setup day.
Round 48″ to 72″, banquet rows, U-shape, serpentine, sweetheart and head tables, with the seat counts you set.
Lay one banquet row and duplicate it across the room. Move a whole section without re-placing every table.
The layout is not a drawing. Import guests and every table in it seats real people, with tags, meals and notes.
Send a view link to the venue coordinator and caterer. When you move a table, their view updates too.
Export the layout and the seating chart as a PDF at Letter or A4, plus place cards and an alphabetical guest list.
Banquet rows or rounds, a head table, and sponsor tables placed where they can see the stage. Start from the banquet hall template.
Sweetheart or head table, family rounds, and a dance floor that does not eat table 9. See the wedding seating chart maker.
Rounds for dinner or a U-shape for the working session, drawn to scale before the AV load-in. See corporate event seating.
Maximize covers in the room while keeping fire lanes clear, then seat sponsors by tier when RSVPs land.
A drawing tool or a paper sketch shows where tables go, but it does not know how many seats you have, who is sitting in them, or what happens when the guest count changes. PlanSeats keeps the room layout and the guest list in one place: add a table and the seating chart grows with it, cut a table and you see exactly who needs a new seat. See how it compares to Canva and AllSeated.
Set your room size or upload the venue floor plan, then add tables from the shape library. Each table is drawn to scale, so you can see spacing between tables, the dance floor and the bar before anything is set up. When the layout looks right, import your guest list and the same tables become your seating chart.
A 60″ round with chairs needs roughly a 9 to 10 foot circle to leave serving space, and banquet rows need about 5 feet between them. Because PlanSeats draws tables to scale on your floor plan, you can answer this for your exact room in a few minutes. The wedding table calculator gives a quick estimate from your guest count.
Yes. Add banquet tables in rows, duplicate a row across the room, and mix in rounds or a head table where you need them. The layout exports as a PDF the venue can set up from.
Yes. Upload a photo or PDF of the floor plan and place tables on top of it. If a venue has shared its layout with you in PlanSeats, you can start from that instead.
Yes, they are the same thing in PlanSeats. Every table in the layout holds real seats, so once the room works you drag guests on, or auto-assign by group, without rebuilding anything in a second tool. See the seating chart maker for the guest side.
The free plan covers one event with up to 20 guests and 4 tables, enough to lay out a small room or trial the tool. Larger events use the Planner plan at $8.99 a month for unlimited guests and tables on one event. See pricing.
Place the tables, check the spacing, and seat everyone in the same tool.
