With a head table

A head table for you and your wedding party (say 10 people on two 8 ft banquet tables pushed end to end) leaves 140 guests: 18 tables of eight (60-inch rounds), with 4 spare seats.

Stationery for 150 guests

150 place cards (38 sheets at four tent cards a sheet), 150 escort cards (15 sheets at ten a sheet), 16 table numbers, and a seating chart poster: one A2 board holds every name at an easily read size. Wedding Charts prints all of these from your finished plan.

Seat your 150 guests

Lay out your real room, import the guest list, and let the optimizer seat everyone around households and keep-apart rules — then print the poster, place cards and escort cards.

What size seating chart poster for 150 guests?

For 150 names, one A2 board holds every name at an easily read size. Sort it alphabetically by surname so guests can find themselves quickly.

Should I use tables of 8 or 10 for 150 guests?

Tables of eight (60-inch rounds) feel more intimate and are what most venues own. Tables of ten (72-inch rounds) cut the count from 19 to 15, which also means fewer centerpieces and table numbers. Either works; check what your venue or rental company stocks.
