Creating and managing tables

Learn how to create, rename, reorder, and delete tables for your wedding reception seating chart.

Build your seating chart by creating tables and assigning guests to them. Plan your reception layout with as many tables as you need.

Plan requirement: Pro plan

Creating a table

  1. Go to Planner > Seating and click Add table
  2. A new table appears in your chart — click the table name to rename it

Editing a table

Click directly on a table's name to edit it inline. The change saves automatically when you click away.

Deleting a table

Click the delete icon on an empty table to remove it. You must move all guests to other tables or back to the unassigned list before a table can be deleted.

Reordering tables

Drag and drop tables to rearrange their order. This changes how they appear in your seating chart view and exports.

Table naming

You can use any naming convention:
- Numbers: "Table 1", "Table 2", "Table 3"
- Names: "Rose table", "Lily table", "Orchid table"
- Descriptive: "Head table", "Kids table", "VIP table"

Tips

Plan your layout first. Know how many tables you need from your venue before creating them.

Name consistently. Use a naming convention that matches your table signage at the venue.

Create all tables first. It's easier to set up all your tables, then assign guests, rather than going back and forth.
