How to use a seating chart template
It's three steps, and all of them are free. Seatwell doesn't seat people for you. You choose every seat, and it keeps count as you go.
- 01
Pick the closest layout
Choose the one nearest your guest count and the tables your venue has. It doesn't need to be exact. You can add or remove tables once it's open.
- 02
Add your guests
If your plan already has guests, they're ready to seat. If not, type names one per line, paste rows from a spreadsheet, or choose a CSV file. Seatwell matches the name, party, meal and notes columns, and you can change any match.
- 03
Seat them and print
Drag guests to tables on a computer, or tap Seat guests on a phone. Then print your seating list by table or A to Z, or make a sign for the entrance.
Change anything once it's open
A template is only a starting point. Every table in it is a normal table you can edit.
- Switch a table between round, rectangle, long banquet, head table and sweetheart.
- Give any table from 1 to 40 seats.
- Turn a long table sideways to build rows or a U-shape.
- Rename tables, or number them your own way.
- Add more tables, up to 300 in one layout.
- Add a second layout for the rehearsal dinner, with the same guest list.
Round, rectangle and long tables seat guests all the way round or on both sides. Head and sweetheart tables seat one side, facing the room.
How many tables do you need?
Divide your guest count by the seats at each table, then round up. Count a head or sweetheart table first, and take those guests off the total.
Not sure yet? Start with an empty plan in the free seating chart maker and add your guests. Seatwell then suggests how many round tables of 8 fit them, and adds them for you in one tap.
| Guests | Round tables of 8 | Round tables of 10 |
|---|---|---|
| 50 | 7 | 5 |
| 80 | 10 | 8 |
| 100 | 13 | 10 |
| 120 | 15 | 12 |
| 150 | 19 | 15 |
| 200 | 25 | 20 |
What you can print
Your prints come from your guest list and tables, so add guests before you print. Seatwell doesn't print a drawing of the room.

Seating chart template questions
- Are these seating chart templates free?
- Yes. Opening a template, adding guests, saving it in your browser and printing your seating list are all free. There's no sign-up. You only pay if you want the extras in the Wedding pass.
- Can I change a template after I open it?
- Yes. Change any table's shape, give it from 1 to 40 seats, turn long tables sideways, and add or delete tables. Nothing in a template is locked.
- Can I print a blank seating chart template?
- Not as a blank page. Seatwell prints your seating list and seating sign from the guests you add. It doesn't print a picture of the table layout. Add your guests first, then print.
- Will Seatwell seat my guests for me?
- No. You choose every seat. When you seat one person from a family, Seatwell offers to seat the rest of their party too. It warns you when a table has more guests than seats, or when two guests you want apart share a table.
- Do the templates work on a phone?
- Yes, in your phone's browser, with nothing to download. On a phone, each table shows as a card. Free plans stay on the device you made them on. Use Download backup in the Plan menu to move one.
- What if my guest count doesn't match any template?
- Pick the closest one, then add or remove tables, or change the seats at each table. A table can have up to 40 seats, and a layout can have up to 300 tables.
