WEDDING SIGNAGE + DETAILS

Wedding signage is essential for blending functionality with style, welcoming guests, guiding them, and reflecting your theme. It ensures smooth event flow and enhances the guest experience, aiding in seating arrangements and meal service. If you're unsure about the necessary signage, we offer an outline of essential items for both the ceremony and reception to ensure no detail is overlooked.

WELCOME SIGN

A welcome sign greets guests as they enter, setting the mood and offering a sneak peek into the day's festivities. It's often the first piece of decor attendees see, making it crucial for establishing a welcoming atmosphere and showcasing the wedding's style or theme.

ORDER OF EVENTS SIGN

This signage outlines the timeline of the wedding day, from the ceremony start time to the reception's last dance. It helps guests know what to expect and when, ensuring they don't miss any key moments. The Order of Events sign is essential for keeping the day on track and guests informed.

SEATING CHART

Seating charts direct guests to their designated table, facilitating a smooth transition from the ceremony to the reception. A well-organized seating chart can minimize confusion and ensure guests feel personally considered, contributing to a comfortable and enjoyable dining experience.

TABLE NUMBERS

Table numbers or names assist guests in finding their specific tables, working hand-in-hand with the seating chart. They can also add a creative element to the table decor, whether through thematic naming conventions or decorative displays that complement the wedding's design scheme.

STATION SIGNS

Interactive station signs clearly mark various areas within the event, like the gift table, photo booth, bar, and dessert station, guiding guests through the venue and enriching their experience by ensuring they fully engage with all the event's features.

PLACE CARDS

Place cards or escort cards elegantly guide guests to their seats, sometimes they can also inform servers of pre-selected meal choices, ensuring a smooth dining experience. Customizable with calligraphy or unique designs, they add a personalized touch to the event's ambiance and reflect thoughtful attention to detail.

Incorporating these various types of wedding signage not only aids in logistics but also adds layers of detail and charm to your celebration. Each category of sign serves a unique function, ensuring guests feel guided, informed, and welcomed throughout every phase of your wedding day.

Client Love

“Joanne’s talent and meticulousness is without a doubt what made our signage the best part of our wedding decor.

Everything from the seating chart, bar signs, and acrylic place cards were handwritten by her and we were in absolute awe when we first saw them. She is prompt in answering my questions and in relaying her creative ideas, while also considering our vision. Her pieces are truly a wonderful addition to any wedding. Highly recommend!!”
