DIY place cards!

I just came across the sweetest idea for my place cards! 

I'm going to make these:



FI and I are both wine lovers and we will be going to many vineyards for our honeymoon so I think it's fitting and it really goes with our rustic vintage decor!

I just have to figure out what to use to cut the bottom a bit so that they sit flat...
suggestions?

omg these are so cute!!

    That's awesome!  Have you started?
    I think I'm going to hand write the names on the place cards just because I think it looks more rustic.

  • Pretty! I can't wait to see how they look when you've handwritten the names!

  • Sweet! I have no idea what we are using, if we are even doing a seating chart.

    Haven't started yet! My friend who works at a winery gave me a ton of wine corks and they've just been sitting for like 6 months! A couple of my friends have done it at their weddings (our hometown has almost 40+ wineries so vineyard weddings are really common lol) and I kept one from this summer so I was going to use it as a reference. Now that you mention it though I might try it out this weekend. Keep us posted on how it goes for you!
