Wedding planning is all in the details, and crafting custom place cards is an easy way to meticulously plan your reception. Though not strictly necessary, using name place cards ensures your guests find their seats with ease and helps organize your special day. Incorporating them into the event is simple. Most couples will design seating charts with everyone’s name and table listed, and then their guests will find their name cards on their plates. Alternatively, you can use escort cards, which are displayed in the reception area and guide people to their tables. Whichever plan you select, your wedding table place cards will make your night feel personal and sophisticated.
This personalized touch makes your guests feel intentionally involved in the event. To further that feeling, some people will handwrite their names. If you plan to do so, then you need to print place cards on sturdy paper stock with a writable surface, such as 14 pt. Uncoated. Include every guest’s first and last name to avoid any confusion. The 2” x 3.5” table tent provides plenty of space to clearly write or print names in a clear, legible font.
When designing place setting cards, make sure the style complements your wedding theme and matches your other wedding stationery. Get started with GotPrint’s customizable wedding place card templates.
