Celebrate your journey as a couple by naming your wedding tables after significant milestones in your relationship. Consider names like First Date, Proposal, First Holiday and Engagement Party and on the reverse include the dates of these specials moments along with a short story about each one.
2) Favourite Places
Add a touch of wanderlust to your wedding and get your guests traveling the world through your table names by naming them after your favourite destinations or places you have visited together. You can include dates of when you traveled there and stories about your journey to give your guests a talking point.

Highlight your shared hobbies or interests by naming your wedding tables after them. Whether it's football teams, recipes you like cooking, flowers, theme parks, Disney characters or board games, this personal touch can create a fun and engaging atmosphere for your guests.
