contents Planar cavity magnonics has been developed mainly for a single magnetic film, leaving multilayer behavior in spatially resolved cavity scattering largely unexplored. Here, we introduce a double layer planar cavity with two magnetic films embedded in the same microwave cavity to derive a full two-film scattering theory in the macrospin ($J = 0$) limit and recover the exact zero-gap half-thickness limit, thereby benchmarking the model against the known one-film result. We find that the double layer model actively enables geometry-controlled bright-channel enhancement, demonstrating that the magnon-photon coupling depends on spatial placement rather than just total magnetic volume. Antinode-compatible placements increase the coupling, while node-compatible placements suppress it. Weak symmetry breaking also transfers finite cavity weight to a mode dark in the symmetric limit, producing an additional branch without destroying the main avoided crossing. Finally, a reduced multimode theory for $J\neq 0$ predicts family-resolved bright and dark channels for odd standing-spin-wave modes.
