here's my ?? for you -
is your RH providing the cards or is this going to come out of your budget?
I honestly think one per person is the way to go...simply because what are you going to do with couples who are not married? Whose last name goes on the card?

My RH gave me the cards. But I hate my script writing so I got another set from staples that I can just print on (it wasn't much since I had a staples reward check anyway)
i wasn't sure. I did see someone put couple that weren't married on the same card with full names.
I think I may put married couples together on one card maybe & then non married or singles on separate cards.
But then I have a couple of people that have not told me their guest names... grrr![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
So I am not sure what to do about that if I don't get it in time!
Okay now I have a question... if they aren't married yet, do you then have to go out of your way to find out the other partner's last name if you're doing 2 separate cards? I was going to put engaged couples on the same placecard and just do like Jane Doe & Guest for those who aren't married.

For engaged couples - they REALLY love it to see, 'The Future Mr & Mrs blah blah'....
You don't have to go out of your way - but it will totally make them smile... I was at Heathers' wedding this weekend & she had someone's 'future' names and the couple were sooooo happy to see that.. Think of how happy you'd be to see that!

Okay - deep breath in, deep breath out.... I so know what you are going through.
I think your solution is perfect... Married peeps on one card, singles on 2.
For those that have not given you last names of their guests....they can go on one card with the person's first name....
Example: Jessica Harrigan & David
This way - your single person will know to look for her name and the dude, well, he's on the card too!

That is such a cute idea!
I think we're doing one per person
I did one per couple, whether they were married, engaged or dating. Only the singles had their own card.
We're doing one per person but only because I'm doing hershey bars as the placecards (the wrappers will have the seating info).
All on one. If you are Mr and Mrs Doe you got one as well as Jane Doe and John Wedding (her guest).

okay another question. If you have a family that has a child with them, you putting the child's name too. I was thinking at least for my flowergirls that they would get their own. but I am not sure?
