Daily Topic Thread - Martha Who Monday (Menus)


Good Morning Ladies!

As we are finalizing our food selections and considering providing menus for our guests, I thought it might be a good time to give you a little inspiration with some innovative wedding menu ideas. I found some great options during my onlie search; I get so excited by creativity! lol
(links to blogs included below)

Such a simple yet totally awesome idea!





Double up the use of your menu and save paper!


This menu was designed to fit the theme of their aviation museum wedding. Fabulous idea! 


So simple and unique at the same time.

Crossword Menu
Guests can have some fun before they enjoy the meal :)


This was just too cute not to share!



Are you providing a menu for your guests? If so, are you DIY? Do share your ideas and finished projects! (Please ;)

  • Our menu is prob one of my fave DIY projects :)
    I designed a "cootie catcher" / fortune teller menu so that our guests can have a little fun and know what they are eating ;)
    I designed 4 different versions with different questions so that people at the table can even play with each other if they wish (and not have the same one).

    This is what a couple of the designs looks like:



    The 2 blank sections will be stamped (love birds) and then it will be tied up with a feather with guest's name (so I'm using the menu as a place card and convo piece as well!)

    This picture kinda helps visual the "process":

  • We are doing a rack card from VP at each seat. On one side is the big 'thank you for coming' and the other side is the menu.
  • We are doing a buffet, would I still do a menu?

    Maybe just a menu card or board at the buffet? Your caterer might already be doing that anyway, so there might be no need. Entirely up to you ;)

    I would just to let everyone at the table know what their options will be. That way they don't pick up one entree and get two feet further and decide they'd rather have the second option.

    I absolutely love the round ones. They just aren't feasible for our food options. Love them though.
  • We're doing a buffet, so I'm going to put the menu on the back of the table numbers, which will be made on squares of cardstock. That way, people can get an idea of what's available, but I don't have to print one for every seat.
