Table plan FAQs

What is a table plan?

A table plan is the British and Irish term for the master document that assigns guests to tables at a wedding or dinner. In the US it is usually called a seating chart — same job, different vocabulary.

Is a table plan the same as a seating chart?

Yes in practice. SeatPlan.io builds either display from the same assignments. See our seating chart vs table plan guide for the small presentational differences.

Can I make a table plan online for free?

Yes. Open the designer with no account, place tables, and assign guests. Saving long-term and watermark-free PDF export sit on paid tiers.

Does this work as a wedding table planner?

Yes — rounds, long tables, head or sweetheart tables, dietary fields, and exports your venue can use.

Can I drag and drop a table plan?

Yes. Tables and guests move with the pointer so aisle clearance and sightlines stay visible while you edit.
