Get a first wedding seating plan, then make it yours.
You add your guests, groups, couples, preferences and constraints. Lennea works out a strong first table arrangement. You review it, change what you want, and keep the final call.
Every guest already has a table. You start from a considered arrangement, not a blank chart to solve.
What went into this plan
You tell Lennea which people belong to the same groups, who stays together, where there are preferences, and how many seats each table has. The arrangement comes from those relationships, not from the names alone.
- Maya and Ben are a couple. Keep them together.
- Alex and Jess are a pair. Keep them together.
- Maya would rather sit with the university group.
- Ben would rather sit with the work group.
- Keep each group together where practical.
- Every table seats eight.
Why did Maya end up here?
Seven university friends, seven from work, and two guests who know people in both. Sixteen people, two tables of eight. Maya and Ben are a couple, so one of them sits with the other's group. There is no version that keeps every preference at once.
Both pairs stay together. Maya sits with Ben at the work table, and Alex and Jess fill the two spare seats at the university table.
Prefer a different tradeoff?
Maybe you know Maya would be happier with the university group. Move Maya and Ben across, and Alex and Jess take their place at the work table.
- Now honoured: Maya sits with the university group.
- Still together: Maya with Ben, Alex with Jess.
- Given up: Ben now sits with the university group, not work.
- Four guests change table. The other 48 stay where they are.
The optimiser may favour the first arrangement. You may still prefer the second.
Back to the whole room.
One decision changed. The rest of the plan holds.
Lennea works out who sits with whom. It does not draw your reception floor plan or design the chart you print for the venue. Once the tables are settled, take the assignments wherever you need them.
Still working through friend groups, couples, guests who know nobody, uneven table sizes or people to keep apart? Read our guide to seating wedding guests.
Start with something concrete.
Add your guests and the relationships that matter. Lennea gives you a first arrangement to work from.
