After the ceremony, the first thing your guests will see before entering your reception is your place card table. This is the first glimpse in to the theme or overall feeling of your reception. You want this to be a reflection in to the type of event they are about to enter.
Themed weddings are obviously easier to think of place card ideas than non-themed weddings. For example, if you are having a beach themed wedding a great idea is to display place cards by giving guests a message in a bottle with their table number inside.
Or for a Fall wedding a simple idea is to use leaves to display the names and table numbers of your guests.
A non-themed wedding can be a little harder to come up with an idea for your place cards. To create a unique place card table think about your hobbies, interests, favorite things and start brainstorming ideas that would match your wedding.
For a wedding couple that enjoys collecting bottle caps or has a favorite drink to share with their guests try incorporating that in to the place cards.
Do you and your fiance eat ketchup with everything? How cute are these personalized Heinz ketchup bottle labels? Just tie a place card to each bottle for a cute and super fun place card!
There are a bunch of ideas that are fun and interactive for your guests. Take a look at these paper mustaches. Great to double as a prop for a wedding photo booth!
I love place cards that can double as decor. Bud vases with flowers can be used as place cards and placed on the tables as decor. When the wedding is over the guests can take the vase and the flowers home!
