October 2012 Weddings

show me your...

Table numbers!  I'm having a heck of a time figuring out what to do...

our wedding is a casual, simple, fall-themed, barn celebration.   we are having sunflowers in jars as centrepieces and mini pumpkins as escort cards.

Re: show me your...

  • Here are ours they are very simple in clear frames. There is a red and orange leaf stamped on the bottom (the red looks orange and the orange looks yellow on my computer) and we pringed them on linen paper that I had so they were simple and inexpensive to make.

    Could you maybe paint the table numbers on the jars?

  • These are ours. We ordered them off Etsy. I was able to tell her our colors and send her pictures of our invites and STDs and she created this.

    we could paint on the jars but I'm not sure how visible it would be for everyone.
  • I'm in the process of making mine, so no pics yet.  They are just little 6" tree slices that I'm going to wood burn the numbers on (if it goes well) or if it doesn't, I will just transfer the numbers on to give it a more "stamped" look.

  • You could paint or carve pumpkins with the table numbers on them???

    I saw something on Craigslist this morning where they just took soup cans that they painted and punched holes in the shape of the number, then they put candles in it.  That could be cute, and assuming your room isn't brightly lit when the guests arrive, they would be able to see it easily.  I think painting on the jars could be easy to see if there is just one jar on the table and it's a bright color

  • Our table names are country love songs. I embroidered each title and put them in frames. Were also doing sunflowers in mason jars for our centerpieces :) Here's a handful of them.

  • I made them in Photoshop. All of the tables are named after classic movies that have some significance to one or both of us. They'll be in the IKEA TOLSBY frames (the two-sided white frames, I feel like they're all over wedding blogs, ha), and so the other side is a black and white print-out of the movie's poster.

    The "Eat, Drink, and Be Married" logo at the top is on all of our paper-goods for day-of (the sign for the escort table, the sign for our guest card) and also on our custom cocktail napkins.

  • Ours are going to be photographs of different things that we like from around the area we live.  Some examples are the Carolina Hurricanes (hockey team), local bars, restaurants, etc that describe us.  Turns out we mostly like to eat (LOL).  :-)

    Oh man, I'm at work and don't have the pics on this computer.

    FI is really into horses.  He worked with several racetracks over the years before becoming a chef and there are several jockeys in his family (2 of his nephews currently race at Aqueduct in NY). So, that being said, I made frames from small horseshoes.  I'll have to post my pics later.  I'm rather proud of how they came out!

    ETA:
    Here's mine!!

    I used photoshop also.  Each table is a different casino in Las Vegas.  We just bought frames for them at the dollar store today!

  • everyone has such good ideas!
  • I don't have actual pictures of ours yet, but here's the link to where we found it.


    We're doing the table numbers as pictures of us at that age. My mom is using foam board to display them and we'll have the number stuck in the top of the foam board using a toothpick.

  • I found some red rose print paper at Hobby Lobby and decided to make my own, however, the Numbers will be bigger and more readable than what they show in this picture.
