Know while til sort seating out ( our wedding july ) but been thinking about tablenames.

Would like wedding to be as personal as possible and was thinking instead if places names ( which I stillmight do ) How about names of things we enjoy or like for example

We love

pinics
holidays
camping
walking
beach
animals / cats

Maybe I won't be able to think of enough tho altho could have just football that he likes and maybe couple things I like . or few place names as well that we ve been to on holiday and places we love in wales. How would you make them look classy tho .

Anyone got any pictures ? or other ideas ?

I do like books and films with love quotes also famous couples nice one . We are marrying in the country our main colour is red but not sure what our theme is . maybe love in the country ( also summertime )

anyone want to share?

thanks

Hi dizzy

I am getting married in November 2010.
We are having very personal table names - we are only having a small wedding breakfast (c. 50 people) so will only need approx 6 we are thinking of:

The Bedford Lounge - (pub in Bedford where we first met)
The Bank - (Restaurant where we got engaged)
Union Street - (location of our first rented Flat)
Hartington Street - (location of our first bought house)
Freedom of the Seas - (first holiday together - name of cruise boat)
Key West - (Holiday location for 2 of our holidays)

So cheesy but so meaningful to us! Personal is not lame!

Ours were named after tanks, as my hubby fixes them in the army. Its not everyones taste but we love tanks, and they do have some cool names! lol

ohhh - I like that my h2b is in the fire service that could be an idea i.e engine, pole, helmet etc could be highly amusing lol
x

we are having planets from dr who ( we are nerds )

not to everyones taste but it is 'us' if you know what i mean xxx

They are lovely - where did you get your holders from v cute?

they were reduced in hobbey craft as they were xmas ones 2 for 99p. i ripped off the big felt present on them painted them purple and added little bows xx

We're having places that we considered for our honeymoon & the top table is the place that we're going, as our theme is our honeymoon !!

Go jazzy kins - love your idea - will have to get down to HC

At our wedding in September we had our tables named after sights we'd visited on holidays and put pictures of us at the sights on the tables. I made them all myself to tie in with all our other stationery (which I also made!!)

They are fab girls . Loving teh response .
Kim really like that idea wil definitly stick with personal .
The pics lok fab x

We're still debating table names. The other night we came up with names of tables

Dining, Pasting, Nest Of, Occassional, Drop Leaf, Operating, Dressing, Bird, Coffee, Turn, Round, Times and Periodic.

Thought it might be fun. Still not decided, whether to go with romantic or laughter x

I like the idea of choosing names that relate to our venue as I think they are nice names;
The Abbey
Rose Garden
Camelia Lake
Paris House
The Inn
Deer Park
Cedar
The Folly
But my h2b wants something a bit more fun like 80s couples;
J.R & Sue Ellen
Charlene & Scott
Mork & Mindy
Knight & Kit
.....think its going to be a bit of a discussion point for us.x

we were thinking of places weve been as a couple ie dublin, edinburgh, ambleside, dominican republic ,

We have having the names of our grandparents and uncles that are no longer with us. They are going to have a picture of our loved one with a few words describing our most memorable time with them.

Narcissus love that idea!

Your ideas are all lovely. We love the lake district and are going there for a mini-moon just after the wedding. So our theme is going to be the Lakes.

we were thinking of having different shades of pink (our theme pink and sparkly) Fushia, blush, Lipstick etc etc or whats required for marraige like: Love, Friendship, Trust, Passion, etc but really not sure what the guests would think of them ?? any advise would be great! xx

Ours are

Kylie ( massive fan)
Old Horns ( place we met )
Biddulph ( our 1st Home)
Buzz Light Year lol ( My fiance dressed up at our engagement party )
Banbury ( Place we got engaged )
Cleavedon ( 1st place he told me he loved me :) )

Corney as hell but it makes it personal to us

We are having disney charactors as we are going to orlando for our honeymoon,
mickey
minnie
pluto
donald duck
nemo
woody
buzz
and goofy!

also having mickey and minnie in their bridal outfits on top of the cake. Just so the boys feel a bit more manly we are doing £1 football bets as favours. His team is Liverpool so whoever they are playing the following day we are doing different bets for eg. Liverpool to win 2-0 or first goal scorer, more chance of someone winning then rather than lottery!

My fiance and I used to work together in a theatre before I left for a totally different industry. But its the one thing we most obviously have in common., I havent run the idea past him yet so he may not like it but i thought of having shows we have been to/ want to see next/ worked on together.

Wicked
The Lion King
Will We Rock YOu
Mamma Mia
Jersey Boys
Avenue Q
Oliver
Fame
Boogie NIghts
Blood Brothers
