Planning your wedding stationery doesn’t stop at invitations. You also need details for the actual wedding day!
What do you need for your wedding day? Ultimately, it comes down to your specific needs versus wants. Seating charts and table numbers are standard unless you have open seating with a buffet menu.
Let’s break these categories down into a quick guide to help you decide what to include.
Most weddings arrange guests at specific tables, even without assigned seats. The standard seating chart size is 24″x36″, printed on lightweight, rigid foamcore for easy setup. You can place it on an easel or hang it with a ribbon on a frame. We recommend organizing seating charts alphabetically because it’s clearer for guests to find their names. This becomes even more crucial when your guest count exceeds 100 people.
Including a welcome sign is optional, but it can enhance the entrance of your venue. Many couples place it at the ceremony entrance, then reuse it for the reception.
Smaller signs, like 12″x18″ or 8″x10″, are perfect for creative uses. They work well for bar menus, guestbooks, sweets tables, or even displaying love quotes. Adding these details adds personality and charm to your wedding decor.
Seating charts pair well with table numbers, making this a must-have stationery piece. Instead of numbers, you can use meaningful names, such as special dates or favorite places.
Menus are common for plated dinners but also suit buffet-style weddings. Typically, they list 2–4 entrées and use place cards to indicate each guest’s meal choice.
Personalized menus double as place cards with guest names, meal choices, and allergy information.
Tented cards (4″x2″) are standard, but slim 1″x4″ cards are a modern trend. Attach slim cards to menus using glue, wax seals, ribbons, or stylish paperclips. Adding personal touches, such as love quotes or pronouns, makes these even more unique.
Escort cards combine seating charts and place cards into one simple yet elegant solution. Guests find their names and table numbers, then carry the cards to their tables.
