Place Card Frames – Elegant and Practical Gifts for Guests

by Wedding Favors Today on February 14, 2010

Your wedding day is by far the most significant moment in your life and as such, it deserves utmost attention and preparation from you especially if you are planning a big celebration.  Apart from good food and great entertainment, you are also expected to prepare a little parting gift to your guests, an item which would truly say thank you for sharing that very special day.

One of the most popular wedding favors is place card frames which are really practical and classy at the same time.  These items can be used for display on the office desk or in the den or living room.

There is so much that you can do with place card frames and the best part is that you can also personalize it more according to your taste.

Place Card Themes

Just because these items are small and unassuming does not necessarily mean that you cannot merchandise them to look more like real gifts for people whom you treasure.  There are several themes and designs that you can choose from depending on what appeal you like to achieve.

There are formal looking place card frames that are made of silver-looking metal frame which can be used for displaying photos.  There are also those that look more casual which can be used for displaying important numbers.

Whichever way you choose to go with these wedding favors, it is very important to tailor fit your gift to the guests whom you have invited.  If you are having only friends and family coming, you can probably get away with the casual looking frames.  However, if you have guests with whom you do business with or share any sort of professional affiliation, you might want to consider going for the high end pieces.

More Themes

You certainly would not like anything that would be remotely considered stale at your wedding so each and every detail should be looked into.  There are more themes for place card frames that you can look into depending on the general theme of your wedding.

  • Seashell adorned white place card frame (best for beach inspired nuptials)
  • Simple off white square frame with fleur de leis on the edges (great for spring or garden weddings)
  • Pearl Lined Frames
  • White Frame Adorned with green leaves on each corner (best for autumn weddings)
  • Miniature Beach Chair Frames
  • Work of Art finished frames (has the antique and  arty effect much like paintings of the great portraitists)
  • Book shaped frames

How many should you order?

It all depends on the number of guests who will attend.  However, it would be best to have extras in case they have a plus one with them.  If you have indicated in the invite that your guest can bring another person to the event, then it would be polite to include that somebody in the list.  If you have 100 guests coming, spring for at least 200 of these frames.  It would not be expected for the plus ones to be given parting gifts as well but it would certainly be appreciated.
