Making Place Cards

If you are having a traditional Wedding with a sit down reception, you will probably want to allocate your guests to seats with a place card. Most brides choose to use a traditional tent place card. These are small place cards with a single fold.

If you are lucky enough to have great neat handwriting, you can write directly onto the cards, with a nice calligraphy or gel pen. However, most of us are not this fortunate, and so will probably want to print on them. Our own unique pre-scored place cards, have been cut to a specific size 90x90mm, they are supplied flat packed, allowing you to put through a printer quit easily, all you will need to do is adjust the gage in the printer tray.

Alternatively you can print the names of your guests on a sheet of vellum, insert paper, or pearlescent paper then cut to smaller size, you can either use the printed guest name as a wrap around the place card, or cut into strips where the guest name is printed, then adhere to the pre-scored place cards.

Purchasing blank place cards, will allow you to decorate accordingly. You can follow your theme throughout your diy wedding stationery and embellish with your chosen design to match your invitations, so your reception tables will look perfect, with matching items.
We have created templates for printing on our place cards, so feel free to download this and use accordingly.
