Spinoff- Table names

For those of you doing table names and not #'s.........how are you going to let the guests know where their table is?? I would hate for them to be wandering around the room looking for the name on their placecard.........

I will make placecards for them and all the placecards will be on a table by the cocktail hour room. They put them in alphabetical order by last name so they're easy to find.

But I guess I meant the tables themselves....Will you have a map to show where it is in the room.......or anyother ideas??

What I did was put a number also like a watermark behind the name. Did it in MS Word, it came out nice.

i don't think there's any escaping that..MrsB2Be told about a wedding that she went to with no table #'s and the basically told everyone to sit wherever you like

Oh, my bad I misunderstood!

Ok, so you're doing table NAMES and you want people to not have to walk around looking for the tables, right?

Well, at the placecard table you could have a pretty chart/layout posted so people know. But to be honest, I think they'll figure it out just fine.

I went to a wedding where they had table numbers and they were in a slightly strange order so I had to walk around looking for my table - it took 2 seconds, no biggie.

No, we are having a seating chart and when they walk in the room the Maitre ' D or wait staff will be seating everyone.

Re: Spinoff- Table names

i have been to sooo many weddings where the numbered tables were hard to find, because they weren't in order, so i'm not even going to worry!! i don't plan on having that many guests anyway. have you thought about putting a 'map' of the tables by the placecard table?

My favors are my placecards, when you walk into the room they will be on a table I think I have a mock.


Oh I see what you mean, in the room on the table there will either be a 5x7 frame with just the table name or the name on a higher stick (like a placecard sick but bigger)
