Build the List
Start with capacity and budget.
A-List (must-invite), B-List (invite as space allows).
Decide plus-ones and kids policy early; apply consistently.

Collect RSVPs
Website + QR code on invitations for speed and accuracy.
Track meal selections and accessibility notes.
Follow up one week before the RSVP date.
Seating, Simplified
Seat by connection and comfort: family zones, friend groups, age/access needs.
Place VIPs with good sightlines and away from speakers.
Decide escort cards vs. board; table numbers vs. names.
Etiquette & Edge Cases
Handle declines kindly; send digital updates if tables shift.
Accommodate dietary needs quietly with caterer and place card indicators.
We’ll help you choose accessories and silhouettes that work with aisle widths and seating layouts, book your appointment.
