Table Names/Numbers

I don't see why you can't have rugby related? It's only a small part of the day...

We're having places we've been to on holiday...

Hawaii (top table)
Sri Lanka
American Adventure
Cape Town
Barbados
Las Vegas
Bali & Kuala Lumpur
Venice
Copenhagen

Ours go with our season which is Winter so

Winter Wonderland, Holly Berries, Frost, Blizzard, Snowflake, Icicle, Ivy Garland

Do you have any themes?

Places visited on holiday together is a good one

favourite films...??

Our tables are named after casinos:

Caesars Palace

Luxur

Monte Carlo

The Venetian

The Sands

Casino Royale

Bellagio

Mirage

But that fits with my whole casino/james bond theme, it really would depend on what your going for xx

We're having an autumnal theme, lots of candles, dried leaves, fir cones etc

How about names of candles? Like a vanilla or a pine? You could do for Jo Malone scents

and then if you're giving presents they could be Jo Malone candles. I agree with GB though, your tables don't really need to fit the rest of your theme so much- we're having london bridges 'cos we're getting married on the Thames but the rest of the day is a lot more rose-themed.

Are you going to have piccies of them on the tables NB? If you are I'm gatecrashing, and I'm going to sit on the giggsy table!

Hehe, that's fab NB, I want to come to your wedding ? xxx

Alternatively, what about naming them after autumn berry plants/trees?

Then you could have a picture of each plant on the table. Or even the plant as centre piece!

We are having pubs that we used to drink in, and the top table is named after the pub we met in. Going to each pub this sunday.... and getting a friend to take a pic of us outside (and no we wont be visiting inside all pubs...we would be on the floor by the end, 22 to do!!) On the other side of the pic, i am getting a pic of the two of us as babies..... so one side of the table will be like ahhhh werent they cute, and on the other side, what people know us for, drinking and having a laugh!! Hopefully get everyone talking on the tables

22 tables??????????????????!!!!

Do you both support the same rugby team? Can you name your tables after their best players, similar to NB? A friend of ours named his tables after each player in Aston Villa's 1982 European Cup winning team! The wedding had no other sport related theme though, so cant see any reason why you couldnt have a rugby theme.

We are having numbered tables but on the table cards there will be pictures of us as children. The more embarrasing the better!

I know..... 22 tables, after me wanting a nice quiet civil wedding, it has gone into the full Monty......... hoping some people drop off though!!!! but not looking likely, people we thought wouldn't come are, and people we thought would arent!!!

Ohh it should be a great day though!!!

hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

I've got 22 tables too! 10 round ones seating 8 people, 11 seating 6 people, plus 10 on the top table. We're just having table numbers I think - we hadn't even thought of naming the tables...I'm not very good like that.

We're also having a sports influence.

My OH is a Spurs fan so we're having spurs legends and the idea is to find a old picture, back in their prime, then have their name in fancy script. That way it still fits our vintagey theme but OH gets his bit too. The only other sports bit we're having is a cake topper, i'm getting one made of me and OH with the Spurs chirpy. ?

We are going to New York for our honeymoon, instead of the obvious - landmarks, we are having movies that were filmed in New York, with the location, and then a bit explaining which scene that location was featured in. It doesn't really fit with the rest of our wedding as such, but we are making the name cards to match the other stationary and fit in with the colour scheme.

oh zippy, didn'y you post a mock-up of these? If I'm remembering right, it looked amazing. I'd def heard this before, 'cos I think it's a great idea.

We're having local landmarks.

House in the clouds

Aldeburgh shell

The Mere

The dolphin pub.

Framlingham Castle

etc it doesn't have to fit with the rest of the day x

We're having Spurs players. OH is a season ticket holder. There have been arguments between the guests over which table they're sitting on. All the ladies want to be on the Ginola table.............. Oh, and we've put OH's aunts, who are Arsenal supporters, on the Nayim table!

We're going sports related too....We are having famous boxers as my OH loves boxing....

Mohammed Ali

Sugar Ray Leonard

Ricky Hatton

Jake LaMotta

etc!!!

Doesn't match my theme of hearts, lace etc, but keeps him happy!

Were doing names of films or tv programmes that mean something to us x

We had Scottish places we had visited. they can be named anything you like and if rugby is personal to you then why don't you do rugby grounds or something like that or maybe famous rugby players last names???

Thanks, I have posted the idea. But haven't done a mock up yet.

Thanks for all your replies ladies, you all have such lovely ideas for your tables

Yes OH and I both support the same team, we've been discussing it again tonight and we're both really keen to include rugby in the day somewhere and this seems like the best way to do it. I was just worrying that it would seem odd when put together with everything else, but you've all made me feel a lot happier about it. Thanks again xxx
