I am in the process of deciding on my menu layout and was wondering how many menus I should order? What is the norm? Do you order 1 per person, per couple, 2 (or more) per table, etc? I am trying to save some money so I figured one per couple would be good but I am not sure how that would look on the tables or how confusing it would be for the guests.

1 per person or 1-2 per table in a frame!

Re: Menus (How Many Should I Order)
if you want to save money - do what I'm doing! One menu in a frame per table - also, this way you don't have another thing to worry about finalizing RSVP/#s-wise!

i did one per couple, you don't need that many and plus they just get thrown out afterwards. so don't spend all your money on them!

Re: Menus (How Many Should I Order)
Im having one per person. I am totally totally totally not a very capable DIY person. But someone from liweddings was nice enough to send me a template that looked really nice, and i just changed the information on it to have my menu items.. NOw i have a word document with two menus on it ..i just need to get some nice paper and print them out (at work =)) bc i dont even have a printer at home) and then use a paper cutter to cut them in half. It is pretty simple and Im thinking since all I am paying for is the paper it shouldnt cost that much.

EXACTLY what I did!!! If you use a michaels coupon the paper will be really cheap!

We did 2 per table. Saved us lots of money and time.

Re: Menus (How Many Should I Order)
I want to do menus as well but I am just doing one per table in a nice frame. It saves me money on printing and it still looks nice. Neither of my sisters had menus and everything went just fine but I kind of like the look of a menu.

Re: Menus (How Many Should I Order)
I'd do 1/2 per table instead of 1 per couple

Re: Menus (How Many Should I Order)
If your trying to save a little bit of money, but still want the effect of the menu's figure 1, 2 or even 3 (depending on the size of the table) menu's displayed in either a frame or one of those stands (dont know the name of it, it is used to sometimes hold up dishes for displays) or even a plain placecard holder to hold it up...
