When your Find Your Seat page comes down

Guest names shouldn’t stay online forever, so your Find Your Seat page has a built-in end date. You don’t need to remember to remove it.

When it comes down by itself

• With a wedding date: guest names, tables and the map come down 3 days after the wedding. That leaves time for guests who look back at the page, or a day-after brunch. Then the page shows your thank-you note until 30 days after the wedding, and then it’s gone.
• Without a date: 365 days (a year) after the page was last published or updated. Each update restarts the clock.

The bottom of the card in QR Code / Seat Finder tells you which applies, for example Guest names come down 3 days after the wedding.

Your thank-you note

Write it in the After the wedding section of the builder, in up to 200 characters. Guests who open your link or scan the QR code after the wedding see your names, your theme, “Thank you for celebrating with us” and your note. If you don’t write one, they see “It meant the world to have you there. ♥”. No guest names or tables are left on the page by then.

Take it down early

1. 1

   Open QR Code / Seat Finder

   Go to QR Code / Seat Finder (QR Code on a phone).
2. 2

   Click Take down

   It’s the small link at the bottom right of the Find Your Seat card.
3. 3

   Confirm

   A box explains that guests’ QR code and link will stop working until you publish again. Click Take down to confirm. The page comes down straight away and the card says Your page is taken down.

Only the wedding’s owner can take the page down. To keep the page up but stop it changing, switch off Keep it live instead. See changes update live.

What guests see afterwards

While you’ve taken the page down, anyone opening the link or scanning the QR code sees your names and This seating page isn’t available right now, with a note to check back later or ask the couple or the wedding party. Once the thank-you window has ended, they see This seating page isn’t available instead. The same messages appear in an embed on your wedding website.

Deleting your wedding

If you delete a wedding that has a live page, the page goes offline at once so guests can’t keep finding seats. If you click Undo straight away, the page comes back with the same link. See delete a plan or wedding and undo.

Your plan stays put

Taking the page down, or letting it expire, only removes the public guest page. Your guest list, tables and seating stay in your account, and you can still print every export.
