Why printed charts fail

A seating chart on paper goes wrong in three ways.

  • The crowd at the board

    A hundred guests, one printed chart, one doorway. The first thing your guests do is wait in line.

  • The late change

    Someone cancels the night before. Now the chart is wrong, or covered in crossed-out names.

  • The question all night

    Guests who can't find their name come looking for you, or for whoever is holding the list.

One QR fixes all three. Change the seating anytime. The QR never changes.

Try it right here

Type two letters. Find a seat.

This is the real guest experience, running on a sample list. The sample guests are ready on the left, then search on the phone exactly as your guests will.

  • Works with typos
  • Nicknames match
  • Two letters is enough
  • No app, no login

    Three calm steps

    From guest list to a confident welcome.

    Begin with the information you already have. RH Seating keeps each decision clear, then turns the finished plan into one simple guest experience.

    1. 01

      Bring the guest list

      Paste it straight from a WhatsApp message or a spreadsheet, upload a CSV, or type names in. You check every name before anything is added.

      Paste, CSV or manual entry
    2. 02

      Assign each place

      Assign tables from the guest list, let it suggest a first draft, or open the visual layout when exact chairs matter.

      Share & welcome

      Guests scan, search their name, and see where to go. Change the seating anytime. The QR never changes.

    One event, your way

    Plan it quickly, or plan it to the chair.

    Every event has both: a fast guest list with a QR code, and a visual layout of the room down to each chair. Use one or both. They share the same guests and tables.

    A spacious planning canvas for coordinators who need exact-seat control, printable layouts and a calm event-day workspace.

    One scan answers more than where to sit.

    The same QR your guests already scan can carry your menu, allergy tags, registry and floor plan, each with its own on/off switch.

    The menu, and who avoids what.

    List courses and dishes, and tag anything containing nuts, dairy, gluten or shellfish, right beside each guest's table.

    • Tags say what a dish contains, never “free from”
    • Guest allergy notes arrive in their own field

    Your gift links, where guests are.

    Add the registries you actually use. Guests see the real destination next to every link, so nobody has to guess.

    • Only secure, checked addresses are kept
    • The destination site shows in plain text

    The whole page, in 17 languages.

    Pick your event's language once. A guest who reads another can switch the table, menu and notes to theirs.

    • Set once, and every section follows
    • No account and nothing for guests to install
    • English, Spanish, French, German and 13 more

    Menu, registry and languages sit on the same guest list as the seating. See all features, or read how guest management runs from the first import to the event check-in app on the day.

    From the same seating

    The paper and the phone can't disagree.

    Escort cards, place cards, table numbers and entrance signs are generated from the plan you already built, so what's printed on the table always matches the answer on the phone.

    From hosts using it

    Seating 150 people is stressful. We built this so it isn't.

    More than 10,000 guests seated across 90+ published events. Here is what three of their hosts told us.

    Guests were able to find their seats just by being told their table number.

    Jonathan380 guests seated across 39 tables, August 2026

    I expected seating 192 guests to be stressful, but the setup was surprisingly easy. There really wasn't an annoying part of the process.

    Wedding host

    Honestly it has been such a pleasure to use. I can't really say there was an annoying part of setting it up.

    Ask a question
    Do guests need an app or an RH Seating account?

    No. Guests scan the event QR, open the seat finder in their browser, and search their name. No download, no account. Try it yourself on the live demo.

    What happens if I edit a guest after publishing?

    Saved changes appear on the published page instantly, and the same link and QR keep working, with nothing to reprint.

    Can I upload an existing guest list?

    Yes. Paste names from a spreadsheet, import CSV or Excel and review the rows, or add guests one at a time. Your list can also be exported back out.

    Can the guest page show more than the seating?

    Absolutely. Dining with allergy tags, gift registry links and a floor plan. Each section has its own switch; turning it off removes it without deleting anything.

    How are food allergies handled?

    Tags say what a dish contains (nuts, dairy, gluten, shellfish) rather than what it's free from. Guests can also send you an allergy note in its own separate field.

    Is RH Seating Studio free?

    Your first event is free for up to 250 guests, including a published page and QR code. Later events are free up to 50 guests, then use a one-time plan, never a subscription. Every plan is on the pricing page.
