Menu Place Cards

What are Menu Place Cards?

Menu place cards are small place cards with meal choices on them used to indicate the seating arrangements for guests at a wedding or other special event. They usually feature the guest's name and can be customized with different designs, colours, and fonts to match the theme of the event.

Menu place cards can also be used to display the menu options and any allergies for each guest, allowing guests to easily find out what food they ordered when they filled in their RSVP weeks or even months ago. With so many creative possibilities, menu place cards are an essential part of any special occasion.

Pros & Cons of Personalised Menu Place Cards

A major benefit of using Menu Place Cards is their practicality. Not only do they ensure your guests know where to sit, but they also serve as a helpful reminder of what menu options they’ve chosen. They can view at leisure what they will be served. Because let’s face it, who still remembers what they ordered weeks in advance? Plus, they make it easy for waiting staff to serve the right meals to the right people, which keeps everything running smoothly. You can be sure that guests will sit in their allocated seats which removes a little of the stress of guests running around unsure where to go. Once they’ve found their table on the seating plan at the entrance, it’s then easy to find their allocated seat. One tends to go to a lot of trouble working out a seating plan to ensure close family members are near the bridal table, children are kept out of the way of the busy serving areas, and exes don’t end up next to each other. So having the individual cards on the table helps ensure it wasn’t all in vain.

It adds an element of luxury to the table when each guest has their own personalised menu and is easily tucked into a napkin or will sit neatly by the plate. They can also help to keep your chosen theme going around the table as you can keep the design to match any other stationery.

Another great benefit of Menu Place Cards is their versatility. Whether you're planning an intimate gathering or a large-scale event, they’re perfect for any occasion. They’re also fully customisable, so you can choose from a range of fonts and designs to create the perfect look for your special day. You can even list dietary requirements such as allergies on them to ensure waiting staff are aware.

Our folded menu place cards have a further advantage as they are less likely to be tucked away under a plate meaning that waiting staff are no longer able to see the names and dietary requirements. They don’t take up a lot of room either.

You can even consider doubling them up as drinks tokens by adding a little message on the back. That way they can be handed in during the evening for a drink and you won’t even need to print separate cards for this. Or you could consider adding a little message to your guests on the back so that they can keep the card as a memento.

Our Menu Place Cards are perfect for weddings, rehearsal dinners, or any other special event where you want to add a touch of elegance and organization. They’re also incredibly affordable, making them a great choice for budget-conscious couples who don’t want to sacrifice style.

There aren’t many cons other than the cost to add them into your budget, but most would agree that the benefits far outweigh the cost.

When should I order my wedding Menu Place Cards?

When it comes to purchasing wedding stationery like Menu Place Cards, we recommend ordering them at least 2 – 4 weeks before the big day. This gives you plenty of time to finalize your guest list and menu options, as well as make any last-minute adjustments to the design or wording. Ordering early also ensures that you have enough time for shipping and any necessary revisions. Don't wait until the last minute - plan ahead and give yourself plenty of time to get everything just right!

Menu place cards may seem like an insignificant detail in comparison to other aspects of planning a wedding – but trust us when we say that these little pieces can go a long way to making your special day even more memorable! So don’t forget about them when you start planning – they just might be the finishing touch you need for your perfect day!
