Default Next project: Dining Table/Chairs?

My wife wants me to build her a dining table for the kitchen form cherry.
This will be the largest table I have had to make. She doesn't trust me
enough to make the chairs and she wants to buy them

I told her that I 'think' I can do it :|

I don't own a lathe for round spindles, but that's ok because we don't like
round spindle chairs.

My biggest concern (and hers) is dishing out the seat contour for your
....um...cheeks. How do 'most' people do it? What is 'most' common? I was
think of some kind of contoured jig that I could use to make sweeping router
passes.

Suggestions?
