Seating charts, venues, RSVPs, and more

Start with the venue and the guest list. Use your event website to share the date, location, and useful details, then review guest responses in RSVPs. Build a room layout, assign people to tables, and lock the seats that matter before testing other arrangements. Save your event and export the seating chart and guest list for your venue team. Core seating edits stay available offline; online guest responses and published websites require an account and internet.

From venue search to your final seating plan

See how the latest Seat Maker experience brings your venue, event website, guest responses, and seating chart together on iPhone and iPad.
