Landmarks

Name your tables after all the places you have been together, either on simple trips, or landmarks that have enabled your relationship to grow. It could be street names, cities, countries, or places in your hometown that have a special meaning.

Photographs

If you prefer to reminisce using photos rather than words, you can tell your story through a series of pictures of you and your fiancé. If you have known each other for a long time, you can show pictures of you over the years. They can also be photographs from your childhood or holiday memories.

Displaying your wedding table names

There are many ways to arrange your table names. You can start by choosing from one of our elegant wedding table numbers before finding the ideal place on your table.

You can place your table names at the centre of the table, in frames or clipped to upside down pegs to make them visible. You can also simply lie the table name against the centrepiece or make it stand out against your floral centrepiece by attaching your card to a stick placed inside the vase. If you have used an empty wine bottle as your flower vase, you can also add your table name to our personalised wedding wine labels.
