For weddings, galas, corporate dinners, family reunions
A personalised seating chart for weddings and large events, ready in a minute.
Paste your RSVP’d guest list with free-text notes (“don’t seat Aunt Karen with Uncle Rick”, “Grandma needs an aisle seat”, “the college friends are one group”), tell us the venue shape (tables × seats per table, plus optional head or sweetheart table), and in about a minute you get three alternate arrangements (family-cluster, mix-and-mingle, strict-constraints) plus three print-ready 300dpi PDFs per arrangement: alphabetical Find Your Seat, table-by-table master chart, individual table cards. Flat $9, no subscription, no account.

It holds every constraint at once
Humans hold about 7 items in working memory — which is why seating a 200-guest wedding by hand takes a weekend and still lands Aunt Karen next to Uncle Rick. The solver holds every don't-seat-together, keep-together, accessibility, and dietary constraint simultaneously, and the hard don't-seat-together pairs are never violated.
Three arrangements, one price
Every order returns three alternate arrangements — family-cluster (relatives grouped), mix-and-mingle (guests spread across tables to encourage conversation), and strict-constraints (optimised purely for the rules you wrote). Pick the one that looks right for your event.
Print-ready PDFs
Each arrangement ships with three PDFs rendered at 300dpi on both A4 and letter paper: an alphabetical Find Your Seat list for the entry table, a table-by-table master chart, and individual table cards. No manual formatting work before the venue print run.
One price, no lock-in
$9 per chart. No subscription, no account, no upsells. One transaction, three arrangements, three PDFs each.
How it works
- 1. Paste your guest list. Name, group, and free-text notes per guest — the parser turns those notes into structured constraints.
- 2. Tell us the venue shape. Number of tables × seats per table, plus optional head or sweetheart table. Pay $9.
- 3. Print the PDFs. Three arrangements × three PDFs each, landing in your inbox in about a minute.
When this is the right tool
Weddings (20–300 RSVP’d guests), corporate dinners and galas, bar / bat mitzvahs, rehearsal dinners, and large family reunions where multiple groups need to share a room. Anywhere the seating plan involves more than a dozen constraints and real social tension.
Frequently asked questions
- What’s your refund policy?
- If our pipeline can’t produce your three arrangements and nine PDFs — infeasibility, render failure, or any retries-exhausted error — you get an automatic refund from your order page, no questions asked, within 90 days of purchase. If our logs show you never opened the order page or downloaded any of the nine PDFs after delivery, you can refund from your order page within 30 days. Otherwise email seatly@forage.bot and we’ll work it out case-by-case.
When this isn’t the tool
Conferences with open seating, cocktail receptions without assigned tables, small dinners (under 20 guests) where a paper napkin is faster, or ceremonies that need a precise seat-by-seat layout (down to which specific seat at a round table each guest takes). seatly assigns guests to tables, not to specific seats at a table. If the constraint set can’t be satisfied at the table count you gave us, we return a specific actionable error instead of shipping a broken plan.
