Oh, yeah ... I'm gonna have fun with these as the years go by! Reupholstering the seats, adding little lumbar pillows, emphasizing the chinoiserie or the coastal, pairing with patterned drapes or bamboo shades ... the possibilities are endless when you have classic and sturdy pieces like these.  Looking forward to the journey!  Wayfair staff is telling people in the Q&A that you can't remove the seats.  You absolutely can, and you can reupholster them yourself.  The seats are attached with screws just like any dining chair seat cushion.  I've already changed mine with no issues.
