Software You Never Knew Existed: TablePlan

Planning a banquet? Got royals coming to dinner? Or just hosting your daughter’s wedding? TablePlan is the app you had no idea even existed, and turns the nightmare that is making-sure-Aunt-Clara-doesn’t-sit-next-to-any-vegetarians into a delight!

Drag-and-drop re-seating on the fly. Built-in RSVP management. Faster than Excel. (Let’s face it, almost anything on Earth is faster than Excel.) And only 20 bucks.

When I got married, we didn’t bother with a table plan. We just stood up and said: “Sit wherever you like!” It was almost not a total disaster.

    When you say it was almost not a total disaster, are you referring to the banquet or the marriage?

    Table plans are one of those things that look easy – until you try to actually do one.

    Patrick: just the getting people seated. The food, the company, and the marriage were all fantastic :)
