If the number of invited guests at your wedding is more than 20, you will definitely need seating cards. Together with the seating plan, they simplify the search for seats, add individuality to the overall design. To begin with, think through who, where and with whom will sit. This is very important. After the choice is made, invitations are sent, start preparing cards. In the classic sense, seating cards are, first of all, paper cards with the number of the table and the names of the invitees indicated on them. But even such a simple, seemingly simple thing can be made completely unique. Having addressed to the designer, you will realize it yourself. In addition to the original design of the cards themselves, you can decorate the table for them in an unusual way.

Seating cards. Drinks
You can attach seating cards to a glass of champagne or wine.

Also, champagne or wine can be in bottles. In the summer heat are relevant juices, freshest, and lemonades.
Seating cards. Keys

Card catalog
For more convenience, use a mini card catalog. Specially prepared drawers (or other containers) with alphabetized cards for guests. The plus of this kind of storage is that it can be matched to any interior.
Polaroid photo cards
For this, you need to prepare in advance pictures of everyone who is invited. Some of the relatives have probably long been in your family album, and photo cards can be taken from there. For all the others, you will have to hold a photo shoot 🙂 As a result, the cards are hung or laid out in a certain place, and the guests will not have a hard time finding themselves.
