How about this idea? Suggestions for "Using Flower Names as Table Numbers"♡
2021.12.21 published
I Want the Table Numbers to Be Flower Names*
In wedding reception venues, it’s common to number guest tables with letters (ABCDE) or numbers (12345), but
it’s also okay to think of other ideas.
What I’d like to do, if my husband agrees, is to use flower names ♩
It’s cute that class names in nurseries and kindergartens use flower names like Sakura and Sumire, and
it's wonderful that room names in inns use plant names like Nanohana, Momiji, Wakaba, and Yukiyanagi.
With that kind of image,
✓ I would like to have the names of my favorite flowers as table numbers,
✓ to design the seating chart with illustrations of those flowers,
✓ and incorporate those flowers into the floral decorations...
It might create a seating arrangement that feels a bit special and different from a usual wedding! I think ♡
The Options I’ve Thought Of...♡
So, if I were to adopt "table flower numbers" instead of table numbers, I considered the following flower names to choose!
I think using hiragana or kanji would give it a slightly Japanese atmosphere, so this time I will use English instead. *
I'm sure if I create the table number designs in calligraphy or something, they will look stylish.
{1} Baby’s breath (Gypsophila)
It might be good to name the table for those with babies ♡
{2} Sunflower
I definitely want to include this for a summer wedding ♡
{3} Margaret
It has a girly image, as it is also used in Shueisha's shojo manga magazines. Perfect for a table with the bride’s friends ♡
{4} Lily of the valley
This means "lily of the valley."
It’s not very common, but I think using pictures or illustrations of lily of the valley will help people recognize it ♡
{5} Carnation
It might be good for the relatives’ table where the mother and those who have helped us sit.
{6} Mimosa
{7} Lavender
{8} Nemophila
Mimosa, lavender, and nemophila have clear colors that will make it easy to create table arrangements ♡
{9} Anthurium
I want to include this if we use it in the bouquet or floral arrangements ♩
{10} Blue Fantasia (Statice)
Just the name has a bit of a fantastical feel, I think?
Since it has "blue" in the name, I’d like to use this as the table name for the groom’s side.
{11} Daisy
It looks similar to a marguerite, but the spelling is the same as that of Disney characters ♡
{12} Cosmos
Perfect for an autumn wedding.*
{13} Salvia
Since it has the flower language of "good family," I want to use this flower for the relatives' seats.
{14} Poppy flower
It has a pop feel in its sound and is adorable ♡
{15} Sandersonia
It’s a flower that looks like a yellow-orange bell that I personally love recently ♡
{16} Sweet pea
It has a sweet and cute feel ♡
I Dream of Table Numbers Being Flower Names♡
I thought about options for when the table numbers are not letters or numbers, but flower names.
It seems good to pick flowers that are cute in appearance or sound, flowers suited to the season, flowers I like, or flowers to be used in the wedding.
It might be a good idea to choose based on the flower language or birth flowers ♡
