A little structure. A better event.
A little organization goes a long way.
Start with the households coming, then decide how you would like everyone to gather.
Gather the guest list
Add guests or import a CSV. Group households into parties so it is easier to keep track of who is attending together.
Arrange places to reconnect
Place tables for the meal and spaces for photos, activities, and conversation. Include food service before deciding the final table arrangement.
Share the setup
Invite relatives helping with the event to review or edit the plan. Agree on table names and locations before setup day.
Make it work in your space
Keep the households connected. Make room for introductions.
A reunion can be both comfortable and a chance to meet a new branch of the family.
Start with households
Use a party for the people arriving together and review attendance before making the seating plan. That helps you spot when a household’s size has changed or a guest is still waiting to confirm.
Choose how much seating to assign
For a sit-down meal, individual assignments can make arrival easier. For a picnic, a visual table plan may be enough. Either way, include the food area, activity space, and photo spot so the gathering works beyond the meal.
Mix familiarity with new connections
Consider seating related households nearby while leaving opportunities for conversation across family branches. Use names or colors to keep the arrangement readable. Share the plan with your co-hosts so they can help guests find the right place on the day.
Good questions
Questions about family reunions.
Can I keep families seated together?
Yes. Group guests into parties and use the group information while assigning seats. Check that the chosen table has enough places for the household.
Can I plan a picnic-style reunion?
Yes. The library includes outdoor objects and picnic tables. Arrange the gathering spaces on a floor plan and add individual guest assignments only where useful.
Can more than one relative help plan?
Yes. Share the event with editing permissions for collaborators or view-only access for people reviewing the arrangement.
Your space. Your people.
