All of this easily doable in django.

Typically when handling forms for editing models, you would create a
ModelForm, which represents one specific model/table. However, you can
include as many ModelForms as you want within one <form>.

A good (and complex) example of this is django's admin system which
allows you to include other models 'inline' when editing a related
model. I think an earlier respondent alluded to this.

Did you have specific questions? Django is quite easy to use and quick
to prototype in, perhaps you should try implementing a prototype in
django to see if it does suit your needs, asking questions on here
when you get stuck.

Cheers
