Table numbers?

kiyamurph

What are you ladies doing for your table numbers?  Are you doing anything creative at all?  My venue provides the standard table numbers but I really don't like the way it looks at all, especially with our wedding being really formal I want something that looks nicer than what they provide.  Is anyone designing their own?  Any pictures would be appreciated!

I took 12 of our e-pics and put numbers on them. I will be printing them in 5x7s at Walmart and putting them in the $.99 Ikea frames. Guess I forgot to blog about them. I'll do that tonight. I'm at work, so I don't have the pix.

We are using numbers just as a guide, but the emphasis will be on a city or state (dont know which one yet) significant to our relationship. We are having a travel theme to showcase how our relationship blossomed on the road. Below that on the table, i hope to have a picture and explanation of the particular city/ state listed. Sorry, i don't have pics yet, just ideas

Our table numbers are dates or numbers that have a meaning to us like the address of our high school were we met, the days our kids where born the address of our 1st date ,the day he proposed.etc etc... Then under the date is a poem explaining the meaning behind the number.

I like that idea @ Me&Miles96. I think I'm going to keep the theme of the Adinkra symbols from our wedding invitations.Each table will have a different symbol that represents us.
