Seating plan for golden or silver anniversaries
At golden or silver anniversaries, generations and friends of decades come together. The tables tell that story, and the plan can show it.
Updated on October 29, 2026
Step by step
List by generation
Use groups such as children, grandchildren, siblings and friends. It’s the easiest way to think about the tables.
The couple’s table
The couple, their children and the children’s spouses sit at the main table. If it’s large, split it into two neighbouring tables.
Grandchildren and cousins
The youngest grandchildren can have their own table, near their parents. Teenagers prefer to sit together.
Lifelong friends
Seat the oldest friends together: they have stories to tell each other.
Create the plan
Choose “Golden or silver anniversary”: the template comes with a couple and children’s table and round tables of 8.
Mind mobility
Place older guests near the entrance and the toilets, away from the speakers. It’s a detail that’s appreciated.
If there will be toasts or speeches, put the couple near a spot where everyone can see and hear them.
Frequently asked questions
