Wedding Place Card Ideas

11/14/2008

It’s been a while since I featured wedding place cards, and when I saw these lovelies on Linda & Harriett yesterday, I figured it might be time for a mini-round up of some of my favorite recent place card designs.

First up, these stunning Linda & Harriett zig-zag place cards:

I love, love, love these place cards – the juxtaposition of the zig-zag against the floral napkin, the handwriting on top of both the letterpress zig-zag and peony graphics. And I love that Linda & Harriett was able to make the place cards by using the backs of the flat notes used for the invitations (more on that later)! Oh, and don’t forget to click here to check out more photos from this gorgeous wedding!Next up, these fun escort cards from the wedding featured on Style Me Pretty earlier this week. The escort cards have the guests’ names stamped at the bottom, with the corresponding table number in the upper right corner:

…these lovely, but simple place cards from Lotta Jansdotter:

…these argyle-inspired place cards from The Bride’s Cafe:
