The cards worked out really well, because as we sat them at the tables it was a great opportunity to make sure each table was set for the correct amount of people! The banquet hall had actually set a few for the wrong number, so it was a chance to catch the mistake and get the table layouts perfect!Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11600834182233613290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6829537924360174546.post-18845584992567927742008-04-22T11:45:00.000-04:002008-04-22T11:45:00.000-04:00J-Fro,How about something original, I see the poin...J-Fro,<BR/><BR/>How about something original, I see the point of having people sit near people they know or are familar with but I think the most fun at weddings are when people mingle. Thus why not have a wheel when people come in and they spin it to see where they sit, or a big grab bag with table numbers in it and when you walk in you get to draw out a number and that is where you sit. So you are sitting at a table with a bunch of people you don't know but are forced to and if you don't want to talk to the people at their table they can get up and dance. I know this sounds crazy but the point is make it something that represents you and Chris. P.S. I know that you like the lake, so why not have a small pool/fountain with rubber ducks in it and table number on the bottom and you get to draw out the duck and keep it!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6829537924360174546.post-51081071317102679432008-04-21T22:09:00.000-04:002008-04-21T22:09:00.000-04:00I think I would do a board.

People will crowd around them as they enter the ballroom and it'll be easier for all to see where they need to go if you have 2...and place it near the entrance to the ballroom, and have your MC announce that there's a board when the call to move to dinner occurs... Just my 2 cents!Ericahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16098002049319726944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6829537924360174546.post-26960642126433275132008-04-21T12:37:00.000-04:002008-04-21T12:37:00.000-04:00Just found your blog and LOVE it! :) I also have ...Just found your blog and LOVE it! :) I also have to say I really love the board idea... i think it's different and interestingi do monogramshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03138099393779439352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6829537924360174546.post-58781113274921808362008-04-21T11:47:00.000-04:002008-04-21T11:47:00.000-04:00We're doing cards.

After obsessing over how the cards will be presented and lining them all up perfectly so they will look beautiful, I realized that after half the guest have rummaged through them to find their name...the presentation will not look so cute for the rest of the guest still looking for their name. With the board, no one will be running their hands through name cards, knocking them over and the presentation will be beautiful for each and every guest..and one last thing to have an anxiety<BR/>attack over :)H to the Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11930791485951291352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6829537924360174546.post-90024006952995601232008-04-21T10:08:00.000-04:002008-04-21T10:08:00.000-04:00i think i like the escort cards a little bit more....i think i like the escort cards a little bit more... but the board could be lovelyTara Vorheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15101505998299358265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6829537924360174546.post-85621741195768352742008-04-21T09:51:00.000-04:002008-04-21T09:51:00.000-04:00I like the board idea.
