Do I need Order of the Day Cards?

When you're planning the intricate details of your wedding day, you might be wondering if Order of the Day cards are truly necessary. The answer largely depends on how structured you want your event to be and how much you prioritize guest experience. These cards are a fantastic way to keep everything running smoothly without constant verbal reminders. They offer a courteous way of managing guests' expectations, ensuring everyone knows where they should be and when.
