About this template

A table booked without context is a table served blind. This booking form captures party size, timing, occasion and dietary notes at reservation time, so the host knows it is an anniversary for two, or a birthday for nine with a nut allergy, before the guests reach the door. Turnarounds, floor plans and kitchen prep all start from the same structured entry.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from a reservation app?
It captures structured context an app typically does not — occasion, allergies, seating preference — so the floor is prepared, not just the table reserved.
Can we enforce deposit terms?
Add a checkbox that links to your cancellation and deposit policy; every booking records consent.
Is it free?
Yes. Copy it into your FormLM workspace and reuse it for every service.
Do guests get a confirmation?
Send one from your confirmation email tool; the form records contact details ready to trigger it.
Can we cap party size?
Configure the party-size field to accept the range your venue actually serves.
