So we won't be picking our two main dishes until about a month before the wedding.....is it necessary to do a menu card, or can I have the waiters just ask everyone what they want to eat?
I think it's a nice touch, but you definitely don't have to do them.
We did them but that was because we had a choice of 7 entree's...looking back it was a nice touch but definitely a lot of extra work.

I'm putting them together now and it IS a lot of work. It's a nice touch but not totally necessary.

how are you doing them? Are you printing them yourself and just using cardstock?
I plan on doing menu cards, but I'm a total foodie who loves reading about what I'm about to eat. I also sometimes have a hard time hearing the waiter and have to ask him to repeat everything again. But you don't need them and I don't think anyone will miss them if they're not there. It's certainly not woth stressing about if it's not important to you.
These are mine... but this before I added all the text.... (sample one I did shown)
I did mine on microsoft word in 2 columns & it took me like 1/2 hour. I then printed it & bought scapebooking 8 1/2 x 11 colored paper to match my theme & went to office max & made copies. It cost me about $30 with the supplies & copies. If you want to do them but not spend alot of money or time you can make them simple.

I just did this one....will print it on a nice paper....
The reason I love menu cards is because of people with allergies. We were going to do some sort of chicken thing with pistachios and realized that if people had a nut allergy, at least they could read the entree and see 'with pistashio nut blah blah blah' But no, you definitely don't need to have them.
I made my own, and they were definitely a nice (but not necessary) touch. I used the cards from Michael's that say Menu on the top. It's about $5 for a box of 25. I put 4 cards on each table.

The fox Hollow does them for you.
Maybe do one or two per table and ask the hall for some little stands to put them on??

I agree. I did them and I liked how they looked, but it's not a must! BTW - the Capitale wedding that I am going to is in 3 weeks! I'm taking LOTS of pics, just for you![]()
