Create your DIY wedding table plan

These wedding table plan cards are designed for you to create a DIY wedding table plan that can be adapted to suit the style of your wedding. A simple Pinterest search will open up a world of DIY wedding table plan ideas to inspire your wedding reception. For a rustic wedding, you may wish to peg these cards on some rustic twine and hang them across a mirror or a frame. Alternatively, you can get green-fingered and attach them to a stick that can be put into plant pots filled with herbs or succulents. Otherwise, you can arrange them in a large photo frame, adding a backing paper that matches your colour scheme! Get creative and create a DIY wedding table plan that matches your wedding decorations and is in line with your DIY/crafting skills.

Personalise your wedding table plan cards

Personalising your wedding table plan cards couldn’t be easier. Simply choose your favourite design and then enter into our editing tool. Replace our default text with your table name or number and then add in the names of the guests you have chosen to sit at that table. Be sure to include their surnames or initials if you have multiple guests with the same first name! You will then be able to choose from our range of high-quality paper types and we would recommend choosing the same paper for your wedding table numbers and place cards to create a coordinated suite!

Wedding table plan tips

Creating your seating plan for your reception is not the easiest thing to do. Some choose to mix up the two families to help people get to know each other, whilst others decide to keep it simple and seat people by family or friendship groups. Either way, your wedding seating plan is the way to ensure that conversations flow around the tables and that everyone can enjoy your reception. Here are a few things to bear in mind when planning your seating chart:

• You may want to keep things traditional with a top table. Usually, it is the newlyweds, their parents and the best man and maid of honour who sit at this table. However, you can adapt the top table to seat everyone who means the most to you.
• Try to sit people with at least one other person they know to help make them feel more comfortable. If you have friends from out of town who don’t necessarily know anyone else, try to find someone you think they will have common interests with and make sure you introduce them before they take their seats where possible.
• You may want to consider creating a children’s table and you can even add activities to keep them busy during the reception.
