I never thought of this! The idea of connecting each table number to give it meaning is amazing ♡

What Should the Table Numbers Be?

Table numbers serve as landmarks for guests' seats at weddings.

At the reception, clear names such as

・ABCDEF

・12345

・flower names

・constellation names

etc., are often given to each table.

If there are no particular requests, it’s common for venues to designate them as ABCDEF or 12345, but some couples opt for different names based on their preferences. Since this is a place that guests will definitely see, many are putting a lot of thought into it ♡

What Happens When You Connect the Table Numbers…?

While table numbers are named for each table, some brides have introduced a clever performance where connecting the names creates a sentence. I'd like to introduce the idea from 𝕙𝕚𝕜𝕒𝕣𝕦 (@barn__0821) ♡

➡ 𝕙𝕚𝕜𝕒𝕣𝕦's Instagram

𝕙𝕚𝕜𝕒𝕣𝕦 used the wedding theme "THANKS day" directly as the table numbers. Instead of ordering the table number letters as ABCDEF in ascending order, she followed the theme with appropriate letters, which I think is a wonderful idea!

Looking at the seating chart, the table numbers are written in large, bold letters, so guests can realize "It's a THANKS day!"

Guests may search for their seats not by saying, "Where's table D?" but instead think, "Where's the D seat from THANKS day...," which can evoke the theme as they find their place.

By the way, 𝕙𝕚𝕜𝕒𝕣𝕦 also prepared escort cards. She arranged them alongside the word "THANKS" like this ♡

Giving Meaning to the Table Numbers ♡

I introduced the idea of creating a sentence by connecting the letters that were designated as table numbers.

It would be delightful if guests noticed the thoughtfulness of the design when they look at the seating chart and see that it forms a sentence! ♡

Besides the wedding theme, using phrases like "HAPPY WEDDING," "WE LOVE YOU," or incorporating the groom's name as "TAKUYA" or the bride's name as "KANAMI," can be fun provided that the number of letters matches the number of tables ♡
