Plan a wedding dinner with a dance floor
Place the dance floor and the couple's sweetheart table, then let Smart Layout fill the room with round tables of ten around them.
Opens the editor with a sample room. No sign-up.
Start here
Three minutes from an empty screen to a plan your client can open.
Seat 120 guests with Smart Layout
Mark an area on your scaled venue plan and let Smart Layout fill it with tables for your guest count — then apply it in one click.
Share your layout with your client
Turn on a view-only link, copy it and send it; your client opens it on any device, no account. In person, press Present.
Uplights around the 16-foot dance floor, lit in the 3D view
Turn on Lighting for the dance floor, pick Uplighting, and show the client the lit floor in the 3D view under Candlelight before they buy it.
Rounds or banquet rows? Flip between them in the meeting
Open Present in the client meeting and flip between two layout options of the same room from the version menu, each with its seats and tables.
The couple chose gold chairs: 120 of them, in one change
Select the twelve rounds, pick the Chiavari chair and type the gold colour code once: all 120 chairs change, and 3D shows the room the couple signed for.
A late RSVP: guest 121 seated in twenty seconds
Add the late guest to the list in Seating Mode, click the empty chair at a table with room, pick the name, and the seating chart is current again.
Lock the stage before you move 12 tables around it
Lock the stage with the padlock in Properties, then select everything and drag: the twelve tables move and the stage stays where the venue's plan has it.
The client wants the bar moved: a pin on the plan, no call
Share the plan with your client as Comment. Her request arrives as a pin on the bar itself; move the bar, press Resolve, and nothing gets lost.
A six-foot aisle for the procession, 10 rows each side
Deploy ten rows of chairs in front of the arch with a six-foot center aisle, then measure it chair to chair before anyone walks down it.
Set the screen's bottom edge at six feet, above the heads
Raise the projection screen's bottom edge to six feet, then sit in the last row in 3D and check that the whole slide clears the heads in front.
House lights down, haze on: show the client the opening look
Open Atmosphere in the 3D view, pick the Show look, take the house lights down and the haze up, and show the client the beams over the stage.
Will a 20K projector fill a 16-foot screen from 30 feet?
Place a 20K projector thirty feet from the screen, turn its lens to it and read the image width, the overshoot and the lens that fills the screen exactly.
19'-8" of truss, 4 moving heads: the warehouse pull sheet
Export the Counts sheet from a built stage plan and get the truss run, moving heads, drape and uprights as a pull list for the warehouse.
Cut the six-foot double doors into the 3D walls
Use the Chopper to open the wall where the room's double doors are, set the opening to six feet wide and look through it in the 3D view.
Walls from the plan: 5 detected, 1 traced, 22 feet high
Detect the straight wall pieces of one room on the venue's drawing, set the real ceiling height, trace the wall detection cannot read and see it in 3D.
How much cable from front of house to the stage? 73'-5"
Trace the snake's real route from the FOH desk along the side wall to the stage with Continuous Measure, and read the total run in feet.
Is that column blocking table nine's view of the screen?
Sit in a chair at the table behind the colonnade in 3D, see the column across the screen, move the table and check the same seat again.
Tables, chairs, linens: the counts sheet for the setup crew
Open a house setup, choose File, Download and press Counts. The crew gets one sheet: tables by size, seats, chairs and linens, and every other item.
Send the content team the LED wall's exact pixel map
Download the LED wall's content template at its exact resolution, give it to the content team, and check their artwork fits the wall without stretching.
A delay screen for a back row 57 feet from the wall
Measure from the LED wall to the last row, fly a delay screen in the main wall's own shape that mirrors it, and check the slide from a back-row seat.
Walls and carpet that look like the real room
Give the 3D room the venue's wall colour and lay its patterned carpet from a photo, so the model reads as the ballroom your client toured.
Let your client walk the room on their own
Save a view from a seat, copy the walkthrough link from Share and send it. Your client opens the room in first person, in that seat, with no account.
Show the couple the room from their own seats
Click the couple's chairs at the sweetheart table, open the view from that seat, and send a link that opens there: the room as they will see it.
Light the 3D view like the evening, not the site visit
Switch the 3D view from flat daylight to warm evening light with the Candlelight preset and Warmth, so the client sees the dinner, not the walkthrough.
Label the load-in door so the truck finds it
Write LOAD-IN on the plan at the door nearest the stage and point an arrow at the stage stairs, so the crew and the truck driver know where to unload.
Room for a wheelchair at table six
Take one chair away at table six and open the gap with the chair arc, so a wheelchair rolls straight up to the table with even spacing left.
Corner bars at 45 degrees, so the line forms in the room
Place a bar in the corner and type 45 degrees in Rotation, so the queue forms in the room instead of along the wall and the door.
Hide the drape to reach the tables behind it
Hide the pipe and drape for a moment to edit the dinner tables behind it, then bring it back in one click from the hidden pill.
Crescent rounds: nobody sits with their back to the keynote
Set every round to six seats on a half-circle arc, so the lunch keynote has a room full of faces instead of a ring of backs.
The rental house only has 60-inch rounds: swap them all
Select every round and set the diameter to five feet once: each table shrinks in place, and you see how tight ten chairs get at sixty inches.
Line the highboys up with the Cross Hall columns
Line a row of highboys up with each other, then with the Cross Hall's column line, so the cocktail tables follow the architecture.
Split the East Room with drape: dinner set unseen
Run a pipe-and-drape divider across the East Room so the cocktail hour happens in front while dinner is set, unseen, behind it.
No chairs on the ends of the banquet rows
Select every banquet table and set Seats on the short side to zero: the end chairs leave the service aisle and the seat count updates.
Put the head table on a riser, so the room sees the toasts
Put a band riser under the head table, set it to sixteen inches, and check in 3D that the back tables can see every toast.
The door swings the wrong way on the plan
Flip a door's hinge side so it swings the way the real one does, and mark it as an emergency exit so the plan keeps it clear.
A wheelchair ramp to the stage that fits the room
Size a stage ramp at one foot of run per inch of rise, see that a 32-inch stage needs too much room, and lower the deck so the ramp fits.
Tiered rows, so the back row sees over the front
Deploy twelve theatre rows behind one seating row, raise each row on a tiered riser, and check the stage from the back row's own seat.
Match the client's linen colour exactly
Type the client's exact linen colour code into the tablecloth, paste that design on every table with one click, and check the whole room in 3D.
Put the room's columns in before you seat anyone
Place the hall's columns on the plan where the drawing shows them, then let Smart Layout set the cocktail tables around them, and see the columns in 3D.
Pin the measurements your crew will check on site
Keep the stage-to-front-row and the center-aisle measurements on the plan as dimensions, then print them on the PDF the crew carries on load-in day.
Keep the feuding cousins at different tables
Set a Keep Apart rule between two guests, see the conflict light up when they share one table, and fix it with a single click.
The same dance floor, same spot, in option B
Copy the dance floor from layout option A and paste it into option B: it lands on the very same spot, so both options compare fairly.
Two six-foot tables, one head table that moves as one
Push two six-foot tables together for the head table, group them with Command G, and move the whole head table in one drag without a gap.

Three check-in desks split A to Z, so the line keeps moving
Place three registration desks, label them A to H, I to Q and R to Z, then line them up and space them evenly so each line has its own lane.
Mark the fire exits; Floors flags any table that blocks one
Mark each fire exit on the plan, see the warning when a round table drifts in front of one, find the culprit and drag it back until the warning clears.
How big a dance floor for 120 guests? Sixteen by sixteen
Work out the dance floor from the guest count, set it to sixteen by sixteen feet, choose parquet and let Smart Layout seat the rounds around it.
Mark every power drop, so the electrician finds them
Place a power drop at the stage, the LED processor and front of house, label each with its circuit, and export a PDF the electrician can walk.
Black drape behind the stage, so only the screen shows
Run a stage curtain of black pipe and drape the full width behind the stage and the LED wall, set its height in feet, and check it in 3D.
Room for the bar line, without blocking the hall
Put the bar at the end of a narrow hall, keep ten feet of queue in front of it with Smart Distances, and pin that space for the venue.
Hang the lighting truss at trim, fixtures spread evenly
Hang a twenty-foot truss downstage, set its trim height, add four moving heads, spread them evenly and see the beams on the stage in 3D.
Where does front of house go? Center line, two-thirds back
Place the FOH table on the room's center line, two-thirds back from the stage, align it to the stage and measure the snake run in feet.
Where is Ms. Gallagher sitting? Find any guest fast
Type a guest's name in Find guest and the plan jumps to her table, so the door team answers in seconds, not after a printout hunt.
Move the lectern exactly one foot, no dragging
Nudge a lectern by exact distances with the arrow keys: one inch per press, one foot with Shift, so it clears the piano without guessing.
Will the grand piano fit on the platform?
Measure the Unity Temple platform before the movers quote: at seven feet seven, the nine-foot concert grand goes on the floor, not up there.
A U-shape for a board dinner that fits the room
Size a U-shape table by its head and side lengths in feet, centre it in the State Dining Room, and check the clearance to every wall.
