Seating Guidance

Teams get stuck when they pick a sorting style from habit and ignore married names, bilingual guests, duplicate first names, or local naming customs. The first mistake is usually treating the topic like decoration instead of a functional decision.
Sorting rules should be frozen before printing so stationers, planners, and helpers all answer guest questions the same way. Even a good decision becomes messy when print, signage, or setup teams receive mixed signals.
Choosing first name or last name sorting changes lookup speed, naming exceptions, and how natural the sign feels to the actual guest audience. A room should be built around real user behavior, not the most flattering draft view.
