Please Find Your Seat — Event Seating Chart, RSVP QR Seat Finder (Laravel SaaS)

Please Find Your Seat is a complete, self-hosted seating-chart platform for weddings, galas, corporate dinners, conferences and parties. Organizers build a beautiful seating chart in minutes; guests open a single link, type their name, and instantly see their table — then RSVP, scan a QR code at the door, and find their seat on a live floor plan. No guest accounts, no app to install, no awkward lap around the room.

Upload the zip, run the in-browser install wizard, and you are live. Use it for your own events, offer it to clients as a service, or run it as a subscription SaaS — five payment gateways and editable plans are built in.

Why organizers love it

• Guests find their seat in seconds. A fast, mobile-first search page at /find/{event} — type a name, see the table number, table name, seat and a personal message.
• QR at the door. Download a print-ready QR, or print an elegant arrival poster plus one scan card per table. Guests scan and are taken straight to their seat.
• RSVP without the chasing. Guests confirm or decline (with party size) right after they find their seat. Responses flow into the dashboard instantly.
• A real floor plan. Place the stage, dance floor, bar, DJ booth, buffet and more, then show guests a live map with their table highlighted — “You are here”.

Everything that’s included

DRAG-AND-DROP CHART BUILDER

DESIGN & TEMPLATES

• Categorized template “looks” — Wedding, Corporate, Sport, Gala, Celebration and Conference — each with a live preview thumbnail.

SHARE, PUBLISH & QR

• Publish toggle, optional password protection, and an auto-expiry date.

GUEST MESSAGING CAMPAIGNS

• Send guests their seat details over SMS, WhatsApp and Email.

• Audience filters (all consented guests or confirmed only) and a full send history with delivered/failed counts.

ANALYTICS

BILLING & SUBSCRIPTIONS

• Five payment gateways — Stripe, PayPal, Paystack, Flutterwave and Razorpay — with webhooks.
• Real billing history and downloadable, print-ready invoices.
• Configurable currency.

TEAMS & COLLABORATION

• Invite teammates by email with Admin / Editor / Viewer roles.
• Pending invitations with copy-link and a join-on-signup flow — invite people who don’t have an account yet.

White-label & branding

• Custom logo upload and configurable site name & tagline — reflected across the wordmark, page titles, emails and the marketing site.
• White-label app theme that re-skins the whole product — dashboard, sign-in pages and marketing site — to match your brand.

Multi-language

• Ships with English, Spanish, French and German and an in-app language switcher.
• Admin translation editor — set the default language, choose which languages are offered, and translate every interface string from the admin panel. No code, no redeploy.

Isolated admin panel

• A separate, secure super-admin area (its own login) to configure the whole installation:
• Payments — gateway keys, plan ids and store currency.
• SMS & WhatsApp — Twilio credentials.
• Email — SMTP settings for transactional mail and email campaigns.
• Plans & Limits — prices and quotas per plan.
• General — site name, support email, logo and white-label theme.
• Languages — default language and the translation editor.

One-click web installer

• No command line required: a guided /install wizard checks server requirements, configures the database, creates your admin account, runs the migrations and signs you in — then seals itself off.
