Planning Seating Across Multiple Rooms
Divide guests across named room layouts while checking capacity, assignments and movement between spaces.
Give each room a clear purpose
Use recognisable room names and measured dimensions. Confirm whether the spaces are dining rooms, overflow areas or separate event stages; a room label alone does not tell a guest where to arrive.
Review the whole guest list
Check assignments across rooms before publishing. Removing a room can leave guests unseated, so review those people and publish again after changes. Coordinate signs and welcome-team instructions with the venue.
Worked example · illustrative details
Main hall and garden room
A sample event uses the main hall for 80 guests and a garden room for 20. Verify those capacities with the venue, check that family groups know their room and plan how announcements reach both spaces.
Your next steps
- Check the source details with the hosts or venue.
- Review the relevant named guests and current saved information.
- Make the change in the appropriate DEVENT workspace tool.
