Wanwisa Wednesday: Place Cards

Welcome back to our ninth spectacular Wanwisa Wednesday! Be sure to check out Part I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII and VIII Enjoy~

While beautiful inspiration boards can help a bride figure out her colors, theme and even bridal fashion look, I remember researching each detail at a time later on in my wedding planning. For brides that have their overall look in mind and planned out, here is one of a series of boards on specific wedding day essentials that will hopefully inspire even more!

This Wanwisa Wednesday, I bring you seating card and place card ideas! Avid travelers and destination wedding brides should think about incorporating lovely details like compass seating cards from Laura Hooper Calligraphy. Don’t miss Laura’s other delicious seating cards designs, like her Paula design placed atop a bed of grass and her Spanish tiles seating cards. For a unique and chic display, DIY brides should try Martha Wedding’s ribbon seating card display or create a beautiful carnation box. Beach brides, Martha’s got you covered; try adorable parasol seating cards! If that’s too casual, try chic sand dollar seating cards {via Brides.com}. I always look to food for inspiration and I love Nancy Howell’s lemon place cards. Throwing a vineyard wedding? These wine cork screw place card holders are perfect! Classic brides, try topiary place card holders {via Beau-coup} or pinning your guests names on a perfect pair {via Brides}. Looking for a fun detail? Try including clothing pins in your display; you can achieve a variety of looks like black and white casual-chic hanging cards {via InStyle Weddings}, pretty crystal beaded chains of place cards and miniature roses {via Brides.com} and perfectly simple and elegant cards with mini clothing pins {via InStyle Weddings}.

I hope some of these ideas inspired you! The sky’s the limit so have fun picking out your seating cards (and perhaps also your place cards)! Until next Wednesday! Xoxo Wanwisa

The carnation box is one of my favorites...I first came upon this idea while planning my wedding in 2000, ah the memories...

I love creative placecards! Lots of great finds! I love the show where Martha creates the carnation board too.

Ok so I completely had my heart set on the sea shell place card, and I just went to bride.com to look for them again, and it's not longer available. If anyone could help and tell me who the vendor is it would be much appreciated! Thanks so much!
