Place cards can be so important at events. People like to know where they are sitting and whom they are sitting with. Traditionally, place cards have been the white folded cardstock with fancy written names. That look is timeless and elegant. But we like to have a little fun with our place cards and tie them directly into the the theme of the event to set the tone from the very beginning. Below are some of our favorites.
The guests at this hip-hop themed Bar Mitzvah were greeted with cassette tape place cards on our graffiti painted boombox. Each label had the name of the guest and the table, which was named for the guests of honor's favorite band. They were attached to the board with strips of velcro so they could easily be taken off and saved by the guests.
When we produced and styled this Cinema themed Bat Mitzvah we knew we wanted to make a statement at the entrance. What better way than to hang movie ticket place cards on clear fishing wire strung between red velvet curtains? We added movie reels and dramatic lighting to
complete the look.
For one of our corporate clients we produced an entire weekend meeting with the Superhero theme. The finale was a banquet dinner. Along with lighting, floral and customized letters of the company we had individual place cards designed after super hero comic books. The stands were also customized and designed specifically for the event.
For our Winter Wonderland Sweet 16 we decided to make each place card from snowflakes and hang them on clear fishing wire as well. We added 12" and 14" crystal snowflakes around and withing the place cards to give it a sophisticated feel. Then we uplit the entire structure with blue lighting.
