How to Make a Wedding Seating Chart - JAM Style
A big part of planning your wedding is planning the perfect wedding reception. The place where your guests will gather to eat, drink, and celebrate the joy of your big day. One big issue couples face is the reception seating chart. This is a mockup of your reception space with all the elements laid out.
To create the perfect reception seating chart, here's what you will need:
Materials:
- Bulletin Board
- Markers
- Thumbtacks
- Colored Cardstock
You should start by cutting out the key pieces of your space and tacking them to the board.
Typically you include:
- Wedding party table
- Guest tables
- Bar
- Dance floor
- Stage/DJ booth
Here are some other helpful tips:
- Use thumbtacks to place guests. This way if anyone has to be moved it's easier.
- Color coordinate bride/groom members so it's easier to see.
- Place all kids together at one table. They will keep each other entertained.
There you have it. A simple way to create your wedding reception seating chart.
