Table plan
Every table with chair numbers and who sits where.
For the venue and the catererSeating chart app for iPhone
It arranges.
You approve.
Tell it who must sit together and who must not. Seated works out the table plan — and names the rule it cannot honour.
A wedding, a gala, a company dinner, a conference, a fundraiser. If people have to sit somewhere, and it matters where.
Free to plan on iPhone. Documents are $29.99 once.
The job
Seating is the scramble everyone puts off.
Other tools hand you a floor plan and a hundred name circles to drag around. That is still the work, on a prettier canvas. Seated does the opposite: you describe the constraints, and it produces the arrangement.
How it works
Three tabs. Two kinds of rule.
Set the room, put a name on each chair, write who must sit together and who must not. Then read the plan and approve it.
Set the tables on Plan
Add tables and seat counts — quick setup if you already know the room. This is the capacity the plan has to honour.
Put a name on each chair in Hall
Tap a table and type. The guest list is those chairs, in seat order. A name without a chair is not on the list.
Write the two rules that matter
Must sit together. Must not share a table. That is the whole vocabulary — simple enough to defend to the guest who asks why they are at table nine.
The app
You can see yourself using it.
Plan, Hall and Guests are the same event, three ways. Nothing here is a mock-up of a feature that does not ship.
The room, as a map
Drag tables into place. Tap one to seat people. The hall is the room, not a canvas of name chips.
Names on every chair
Guests is the same seating, in chair order. Search it. Open a person. Change a note.
Four sheets for the day
The same plan, printed four ways, so the venue, the door and the kitchen cannot disagree.
The part that matters on the day
It will not quietly break a rule.
If Seated cannot honour every constraint, it says which rule was the problem and names the people involved. It leaves them unseated rather than putting them somewhere you forbade.
- It tells you, in plain words, when you are short of seats, when a group will not fit, or when two rules contradict.
- A late name does not reshuffle everyone who already has a chair. The new arrival is found a place; the rest stay put.
- A rule between two people applies to everyone they are grouped with — keep one half of a couple away, and the other half stays away too.

Before you decide
Straight answers.
Is this only for weddings?
No. The same solver seats a gala, a company dinner, a conference or a birthday. Weddings are one reason people need a table plan. Nothing in the product is wedding-specific.
Do I have to drag names around a floor plan?
No. You type names onto chairs and write rules. Seated produces the arrangement. Hall is for laying out the room and seating a table — not for shuffling a hundred chips.
What if it cannot seat everyone?
It says so, and leaves those people unseated rather than breaking a rule. Typical causes: not enough seats, a group larger than your biggest table, or together/apart rules that contradict.
What do I pay for?
Planning is free and stays free. The four printable PDFs are $29.99 once — a non-consumable in-app purchase, not a subscription. Restore Purchase is on the paywall.
Do I need an account?
No. The whole app, including the purchase, works without signing in. An account is only for keeping plans apart on one phone, or carrying a purchase to another.
Is it on Android?
Not yet. Seated is an iPhone app.
Which languages does the app speak?
Thirteen: English, Ukrainian, Polish, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Czech, Romanian, Swedish and Turkish. Guest names stay as you type them.
