Table Names

mszorzano · July 2010

Hi girls,
I am looking for black and white photos of Chicago landmarks to use as my table names. I thought I had seen this on someone planning site, but I am not sure. Did anyone do this? Is anyone looking to do this? If so, where did you find the photographs? I need about 25 different landmarks around the city.

Thanks!
Sol

Hey! I did something similar but with pics from around campus where FI and I met. I think I remember some girls got their black and white pictures from postcards.

Januarybride did that, yes. We're going to be doing something similar although we're going to go around and take the pictures ourselves so that we can be in the pics.

I believe she took those pictures herself.

You could just do the postcards or you could google it and save the pics and print that way (this is what we did with ours).

Yep, JanuaryBride and she took them herself

Scroll all the way down to Table Names and Thank You Cards.

It would obviously be cheaper for you to take them yourself, but google Chicago postcards and see if there's any affordable options that come up. You could also go to the library and look for some books, scan the images, and print them.

Kio Kreations does a lot of these:

I only had 12 tables, so had bought cards that had vintage black and white photos of Chicago landmarks. I was able to work with an Etsy vendor to translate these to table signs but I had also used these for creating escort cards with Moo.

You can download the scans here:

PM me if you are interested in getting the original cards - I will sell them all to you for $20. I know you were looking for 25 so given the vintage feel of these photos, might not be compatible for expanding your set.

There was another bride who was selling hers but I haven't seen her on the boards in a long time she got married at the newberry library.
