Auto-seat the rest

What’s inside
  • Tables by shape (round / square / banquet)
  • Drag guests to assign or reseat
  • Per-guest dietary + allergen tracking
  • Auto-seat the rest in one click, diets kept together
  • A For the kitchen strip: every diet and allergen counted per table
  • Place cards, sorted by table, with the guest's dietary line for the server
  • The floor plan draws the same tables, to scale, in the room
01

Track the person, not the meal

Beef-and-fish weddings still need to know that table 3 has a celiac, table 7 has two vegans, and the bride's grandmother is allergic to shellfish. Per-guest dietary tags follow the guest across re-seats and feed the kitchen prep summary so the line knows exactly how many vegan plates by station.

02

Auto-seat the easy 80%

Seat the family and the VIPs by hand, then one click seats everyone else: guests with the same diet go together where there is room, empty tables fill before anyone is squeezed, and it tells you if someone is left standing so you add a table. Drag anyone afterwards.

  • Dietary and allergen counts per table, on the seating tab, for the kitchen
  • Place cards from the same data: four folded cards a sheet, sorted by table
  • The Maître tool and the button run the same planner
Maître woven through

Maître reads the dietary spreadsheet so you don't have to

Drop the bride's guest list (CSV, photo, even a forwarded email) and Maître extracts every name + plus-one + dietary into structured rows. The auto-seat helper does the rest. The kitchen gets the dietary summary in one click.

“[Drop a guest list spreadsheet]”

MaîtreMaître parses every row, normalizes names, splits plus-ones into their own seats, captures dietary tags. You confirm; the seating chart populates.

“Summarize dietary for Saturday's wedding”

MaîtreMaître returns counts: 8 vegan, 3 gluten-free, 2 nut allergy, 1 kosher. Ready to hand to the kitchen.

“Reseat table 7, they want to be near the dance floor”

MaîtreMaître proposes a swap, shows you the diff (which guests move where), and updates after you confirm.

$50 of Maître work included monthly, metered at what the model costs us. Overage is off unless you turn it on. Read more on the Maître AI page.

Need something this page doesn’t mention?

We build custom features for individual customers starting at $10/month. If your idea is broadly useful to other catering operators, we may waive the monthly fee entirely and add it to the standard catalog. The first conversation is free and we’ll tell you which path applies.

How it works

Pairs well with

Say it, and it is done

In the van, on the floor, walking out of the client's kitchen: tap the mic and say what changed. The recording is kept, the words come back spelled the way you spell them, Maître proposes the changes, and you approve each one with a tap.

Staff scheduling + time clock

Schedule shifts, email the lineup, watch them clock in. Actual hours feed your labor cost so you know which event ate margin.

Floor plans the venue crew can read

Measure the room once. Drag tables, the bar, the dancefloor and the doors into it, to scale, on your phone. Save the ballroom as a layout and apply it to the next forty weddings. It prints on the BEO with the linen order.
