Seating Charts for a Garden Wedding
An outdoor garden reception usually means a handful of long tables scattered across a lawn or under a marquee, with guests who've never seen a floor plan before they arrive. A clear seating poster at the entrance — plus a table sign on every table — means nobody's wandering the garden looking lost while the first course is served.
Input GuestsWhy a garden wedding needs a proper seating plan
Garden weddings often have uneven table counts (a head table under the arbour, long feasting tables elsewhere) and changeable weather, so guests need to find their seat fast once they're inside. A big, easy-to-read poster does that job without anyone needing a phone.
Every Event Plans plan includes the entrance poster, a sign for every table, a place card for every guest with their dietary tags shown, and a caterer summary sheet — all built from the same guest list, so nothing has to be re-typed twice.
Frequently asked questions
Is this only for weddings?+
No — it works for any seated event. Weddings, corporate dinners and conferences, birthday parties, galas, baby showers, retirement parties and family reunions all use the same four documents: a seating poster, table signs, place cards and a caterer/dietary summary sheet. Pick a style and it's ready either way.
Is it really free to build the whole thing?+
Yes. Adding every table and guest, setting dietary requirements, and previewing the poster and place cards is completely free — no account, no time limit. You only pay once, when you're ready to download the print-ready, watermark-free files.
What do I actually get for the price?+
Four print-ready PDFs: the entrance seating poster (with a table-by-table map), one fold-to-stand sign per table, one fold-to-stand name card per guest, and a caterer & dietary summary sheet you can hand straight to your venue or caterer.
Can I set different seat counts per table?+
Yes. Every table is independent — name, shape, and seat count are all set per table, so the head table can seat 8 while every other table seats 10, or a kids' table seats 4. There's no global "seats per table" setting.
How do dietary requirements show up?+
Each guest can be tagged with any combination of vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, nut allergy or kids' meal, plus a free-text note. The place cards stay clean — name only — while the full list, with counts for meal planning, appears on the caterer sheet you hand to your venue.
Can I choose the fonts?+
Yes — pick from a curated set of font pairings (a heading style plus a body style), each hand-matched to look good together, rather than picking two random fonts that might clash. Every document uses your chosen pairing consistently.
Is there a subscription?+
No. It's a one-time payment of $9.90 (down from $47) for the full bundle. There's no recurring fee, and no per-guest or per-table charge no matter how big the event is.
Can I make changes after I've paid?+
Yes. Your download page doubles as a private, unguessable link back into the builder — go back and change a guest's table, add someone, swap the style, anything — then save to regenerate all four files, free, as many times as you need. No new purchase, no new link to keep track of.
Can I print these myself?+
Yes. The table signs and place cards are laid out on A4 print sheets (place cards print landscape) with cut guides and a printed fold line on each card, ready for a home or office printer. You pick the poster size (A1, A2, A3 or A4) and the table-sign size when you build your plan, so you can match whatever your printer or print shop supports.
