Overseas Wedding Place Cards are So Beautiful ♡

The design of "place cards," which are essential for guest tables at the reception, is one of them. It's filled with cute ideas that use flowers, sweets, and drinks as substitutes for traditional name cards ♩

This time, we will introduce stylish place card ideas that are trending in real-time from overseas Instagram ♩

Inspiration from Overseas Weddings ♡ Stylish Place Card Idea ② Mirror

This stylish idea uses round folding mirrors as place cards ♡ If you're going to use an item instead of a card, it's nice to have something that your guests can use after the wedding. Small mirrors are likely to be appreciated by both male and female guests ♩

An idea of boldly writing names directly on bright yellow lemons＊ I want this to be the place card for a cheerful summer wedding ♩ Using fruits as place cards is also popular, with small apples and oranges being favorites.

Inspiration from Overseas Weddings ♡ Stylish Place Card Idea ④ Baguette

A novel idea that might make you say, "Is this a place card?!" A large French baguette is wrapped with English paper and green, and a flag with the guest's name attached to a pick makes it a baguette place card.＊

It may be difficult to keep this on the guest table at a wedding reception, but I'd love to try it at a wedding after-party or second party! ♡

Inspiration from Overseas Weddings ♡ Stylish Place Card Idea ⑤ Capsule

A place card that features a transparent round capsule filled with greenery, with a card tied to it containing the name. This idea of using a capsule as a place card may not have been seen much in Japan yet ♡

You can change the content according to the guest, such as flowers for female guests, greenery for male guests, and small toys for child guests… which is wonderful!＊

Transparent capsules can be purchased in bulk sets on Amazon ♩ If you buy dozens, they cost about 30-50 yen each.
