Are you having placemats or Charger plates

It never occured to me to have either? Im trying to think what ive seen at other weddings ive been to but I cant remember. I love the whole vintage look though so will be interested in what you have seen/ choose. ?

I cant remember either but when i looked up table setting plans on google, almost all had them. not only am i having trouble finding a place who hires them but cannot find any i like.

Oh yeah!i just googled it and you are right! Hmmmm got me thinking now. A lot had napkins or plates. I may ask my venue what they normally do.

I once saw lace doilies being used as place mats. Sounds old fashioned but they looked fab!

This sort of thing.

We're having placemats, that i've made myself.

They're hessian/burlap, kind of like this, but i've sewn the "pocket" onto the mat for the cutlery- and ours don't have the text.

They're a bit rusticy I suppose.

As above though i've seen doilies used a few times for vintagey weddings.

I don't think you need either, generally people don't.

We've only decided on placemats as we're having long bench style tables with no table cover/cloth.

Theyd be absolutely perfect! Thanks for the idea x

Wow, they are fab! I like the lace doilies idea too.

Daffodil Waves, did you get chance to find that vintage blog by any chance? xx
