At our wedding we had ‘special’ places – the roads we grew up on, our parents house, the flat that we first shared. the places that we had been on holiday etc. At the time I remember thinking how original, but having done a bit more research I realise that many other couples have the same idea as us! So, I thought I’d collate a list of 100 wedding table names to give you some inspiration.. please help me out here and add any suggestions (leave a comment and let me know what you had or are planning to have at your wedding!)

Luxury Fashion brands

I love the vintage, Cath Kidston style of this table plan – so pretty. The fab photos in this post were taken by husband and wife duo, Jay and Christina from Elemental Weddings – they’re award winning photographers based in Scotland. Have featured lots of their work on LMW – check out the real life wedding for Jude and Matt if you want to see more of their work and keep checking back here and on their site to keep up with their work.

I noticed that this is by far the most popular post on Little Miss Wedding so thank you all for sharing your ideas…. let me know in the comments section what you’re going to have (or had) at your wedding. Little Miss Wedding is a UK wedding blog that features british suppliers and real life wedding (click on that link to see some of them!) submissions from UK photographers.

Lotus Flower Invitation and Box

There are 4 signature designs – heart, butterfly, lily and lotus flower and they are all hand crafted from crisp cotton. Each piece of origami is unique and made to order – they even come with their own certificate of authenticity and individual registration number, so they make a great keepsake for your guests. The butterfly and heart design come with their own heavy woven finish envelope and sticker to seal, and the lotus flower and lily come in their own specially designed presentation boxes and are secured with stickers.

The designs come in white as standard, but different fabrics or colours can be ordered at request (and at an additional cost). Whilst they are not cheap (prices start at £7) I think that they are fantastic value given the fact that they are all handmade and clearly there is a lot of work and talent that goes into each one. This is one of the most beautiful touches that I have seen and I would have LOVED to have sent these invites out to my guests or had them as name places at my wedding.

Butterfly Design Place Setting

Check out the Paperbird Design website for more information – I will be publishing a unique interview with Eve, the Design Director from Paperbird Design in the next couple of weeks so make sure that you check back here on LMW to find out more tips and inspiration from a truly talented designer. Let me know your thoughts on these invites. Have you seen any other really beautifully crafted wedding stationery out there or at weddings that you have been to?
