How saving works

Off: your list is only in this tab. Closing or reloading the tab loses it.
On: your list is saved in this browser only, so it’s here next time you open this page. Clearing browser data still deletes it, so download a backup too.
Unchecking deletes the saved copy from this browser. Don’t use it on a shared computer.
The guest list, seating chart, place cards, table numbers and meal count pages share this one list. The budget, checklist, timeline and vendor tools each have their own Keep box and backup.
Undo works until you reload or leave this page.

Options

Paper Paper sizes offered: Letter, A4, A5, A3, Legal, Tabloid. Use the size that is in your printer’s tray; most home printers take Letter and A4 (often also A5 and Legal). A3 and Tabloid need a large-format printer or a print shop.

Need a poster? The PDF is vector, so a print shop can scale the Tabloid or A3 PDF up to 18 × 24 in or 24 × 36 in and it stays sharp.

Lettering

Modern (sans serif) Classic (serif)

Classic sets the text in a serif typeface (Times). If a name has letters Times cannot print, such as Ł or Greek letters, the whole file keeps the modern typeface and “Before you print” says so.

Orientation

Portrait Landscape

Order

A–Z by last name By table

Title Leave empty to use your event’s name, or “Seating chart” if you have not named the event.

Subtitle (optional)

Show guest names

Print at 100% (“Actual size”, no “Fit to page”) and use the paper size of your label sheet. Print an outline test page on plain paper first.

Labels to print

Guest addresses (one label per household) Return address (a full sheet)

Label sheet Sheets are named by label size. Product numbers are only examples of sheets with the same layout: check the size and the number of labels on your pack.

Which households

Households with someone invited to this event Every household on the list

City and postal code The country prints in capitals on the last line when it is filled in. In the UK layout the city or town prints in capitals too.

Return address Not saved: it is kept only while this page is open. Type it the way it goes on the envelope, one line per line (up to 6).

Start at label

Test page: outline every label on the first sheet Print this on plain paper first and hold it against a label sheet, against the light, to check that everything lines up.

Names on envelopes

The first line is the household name, or the name on envelopes you type below — exactly as typed. No titles such as “Mr.” or “Mrs.” are added. Leave a box empty to use the household name. Saved with your list; Undo works as everywhere.

No household on these labels yet.

Households without an address (no label)

Add their addresses in Guests → “Households and addresses”, or import them with the address columns of a CSV file.

Nothing to print yet

Before you print

The preview, PDF and Print then show only these cards. Take out the old cards listed under “Before you print”.

When printing, set the scale to “Actual size” (100%) and turn off “Fit to page” so sizes stay exact.

Print tips

Print at 100% (“Actual size”) and turn off “Fit to page”. In Chrome and Edge: More settings → Scale. In Safari on a Mac: Show Details → Scale.
Measure the 50 mm line (1.97 in, just under 2 in) on a printed card sheet. If it is shorter or longer, the scale was changed.
On a phone, the print dialog often cannot set the scale: download the PDF and print it from a computer.
For cards, use matte card stock your printer accepts (often around 200–250 g/m² or 65–80 lb cover). Print one test page on plain paper first.

Import a guest list (CSV)

Save your spreadsheet as CSV first (Excel: File → Save As → “CSV UTF-8”; Google Sheets: File → Download → CSV). The file is read on this device only; nothing is uploaded. Nothing changes in your list until you confirm the import.

Open a .csv file or drop it here. Up to 2 MB and 5,000 rows.

Check accents: this file may not be UTF-8. If names look wrong (for example “JosÃ©”), save the file again as “CSV UTF-8” and open it again.

Events

One event is enough for most weddings. Add another when part of the day has its own guest list, replies or seating — for example a ceremony and a reception. Each event keeps its own replies, tables, seats, vendor meals and prints; choose the one you work on in “Event” above the counts.

Optional. Stored as the calendar date you pick.

Dietary notes

Record dietary and allergy notes

Dietary and allergy notes are health information. They stay in this tab’s memory; they are saved in this browser only if you check “Keep on this device”. They are never printed on guest-facing items and appear only on the caterer detail sheet when you choose.

Extra columns from imports

Columns you chose to keep when importing a file. They are stored with your list and in backups, but not shown anywhere else in the app. Remove any you don’t need, especially private information.

No extra columns are stored.

Guest list as a spreadsheet (CSV)

A spreadsheet copy of everyone invited to this event, with replies, meals and tables, to read, print or share. Choose what else to include:

The file holds only the event selected in “Event” above the counts. To get another event’s list, select that event first.

This file is a spreadsheet copy, not a full copy: it leaves out other events, table shapes, seats and room layout, vendor meals, invitation and thank-you planning, and any contact details or notes you do not include. Opening it here again with “Replace my current list” removes those. The backup below is the full copy.

Include contact details (email, phone, address) Include dietary notes

Turn on dietary notes in Settings to include them.

Include extra columns from imports Include private notes

Backup and restore

A backup file keeps everything in this workspace: guests, replies, meals, tables and seats, events and settings. Open it here with “Restore a backup” to get it all back, on this computer or another one. Keep it somewhere safe, for example in your email or cloud storage.

Each planner page has its own backup and its own “Keep on this device” box. This backup holds only the guest list workspace. Download the budget, checklist, day timeline and vendor comparison backups on those pages.

Download a backup

The backup contains your whole list, including contact details and notes. Anyone with the file can read it.

Restore a backup

Choose a backup file or drop it here. Named “wedding-workspace-backup-…”, up to 5 MB.

You are asked before your current list is replaced, and you can undo it.

Unreadable saved data

The list saved in this browser couldn’t be read. It wasn’t changed or deleted. Restore a backup above, or discard the unreadable data so this browser can save your list again.

About storage

Your list lives only in this browser tab until you check “Keep on this device”. Then it is saved in this browser on this device.

Browser storage can be cleared by you, by cleaning tools or by the browser itself when space runs low.
Private or incognito windows forget everything when they close.
Other devices and other browsers don’t see the list.
Nothing is sent to a server. Download a backup regularly and keep it somewhere safe.

Start over

Empty this list to begin again, for example after trying the sample list. Your event names and dates, your names and the Keep setting stay.

Start over?

This removes all guests, households, tables, seats, replies, meal choices, vendor meals, seating preferences and print records. Your event names and dates, your names and the Keep setting stay.
