Your wedding day is meant to be one of the most beautiful events of your entire life – so it only makes sense that you want every tiny detail to have its own place and perfectly coordinate with the overall theme of your Big Day.
Of course, the décor can make a huge difference – and while you should definitely focus on that, it is important to make sure you don’t rule out the power of a well-made wedding seating chart, not just from the point of view of what it contains, but also from the point of view of its look.
What are some of the loveliest wedding seating chart ideas of the moment? We have gathered them right below – so read on and find out more.
Clothespins and cards. Pin your place cards on some twine to create a rustic, unique-looking seating “chart”. Place this right at the entrance in your wedding reception venue, so that people see it and grab their own card. It will look so fun and special!
Watercolor cards. Watercolor can add a romantic touch to your seating chart – and it can help you make this more personal too. Paint your cards with watercolors and use beautiful calligraphy for the names of the guests (e.g. pink watercolor and rose gold calligraphy) – it will look fantastic!
Coordinate with the invitation. Want to create a seating chart that looks really polished and elegant? How about coordinating it with the elements and design from your wedding invitations? This is one of the best ways to make sure your wedding décor and stationery tie together and look great when different elements are pulled together.
Pressed flowers. If you plan on having a wedding inspired by nature, why not create a seating chart where every guest/ family is represented by a small, framed pressed flower? This is a lovely idea that looks really great with outdoor weddings – and the framed pressed flowers can double as wedding favors too!
Don’t be afraid to get creative! While there might be a lot of wedding etiquette rules to follow (still), you now have more freedom than ever to create wedding décor elements that truly speak about you and your personality! Use this freedom wisely and bring to life your dream wedding!
