Table numbers

I was incredibly bored today, so I decided to photoshop table numbers. This is the third time I've tried to post this in the past five minutes- I've never put pictures in a post before... so lets see if it works this time. There's two ideas I really liked, but I wanted opinions. The first set of table numbers are locations that are special to FI and I. The second set are more traditional and have quotes from songs we like. Any thoughts or preferences would be appreciated!

    I love the pictures but it may be nice to add why each one is special to you (if there is a story behind it anyway...). The #'s look great, but I would def change the font on the quotes to something more readable if you go that route. Nice work on both!

    Great options.  I think it will depend on the general feel of your reception.  If it's more casual and fun, I would go with the city locations (I second that it would be great to know why those spots are important to you an FI).  If it's a bit more traditional, the numbers would be good.  Great options, regardless of which one you pick.

    Both are well-designed, but I like the "special locations" option better. I agree with Reddie about saying why the location is special. FWIW, DH and I met on a study abroad trip, so we put "postcards" on each table with one of the places we traveled to. We got double-sided picture frames that spin, so we printed postcards with the location on one side and a postcard message on the other.

    I love the location idea. We're doing something similar...I'm a Park Ranger, so we're doing our favorite National Park sites with photos. I like the idea that everyone has suggested about you telling guests why the places are special to you...but sometimes I wonder if we do all of those things if it can be too much. Just my opinion. I love the effort and idea, I just think there are so many other details to think about! But, I'm not the best DIY person! You can't go wrong with either of your ideas...both have a great, personal touch!

    I like both, but my personal taste is the numbers. I agree with reddie though... change the font or make it bigger... it's a little hard to read.
