About place cards

Place cards are where the seating chart meets the table. Design a template that matches your suite, then write in each guest's name, table number, and entree choice by hand: which means last minute changes are no drama at all. Order 8 to 10 weeks out, grab a few extras, and your tables will look effortlessly considered.

Good to know

Design the card in the Studio, but leave generous blank space where names will go: cramped handwriting is the enemy. Match the suite's fonts and colors, and do a handwriting test on one card before committing to the whole stack. Order extras.

Do I write the names myself?

Yes. Guest names and table numbers are written in by hand: not printed. That makes last minute seating swaps painless.

What pen should I use?

A good quality pen works on most stocks; if you choose a premium glossy finish, use a permanent marker so it sets cleanly.

Flat or folded?

Folded tent cards stand on their own and read well across the table. Flat cards work in holders or laid on plates. Pick what suits your tablescape.

Can they match my invitations?

Yes. Templates are designed to coordinate with invitation suites for a pulled together look.

How many extras should I order?

A few more than your guest count. Seating plans shift, and extras are your insurance policy.

When should I order?

At least 8 to 10 weeks before the wedding, so there's no rush while you finalize the seating chart.
