A lot of wedding reception venues provide the menus, table place cards etc but often brides want a real statement table plan and something a little bit unique which is where a specialist can come to the rescue. I remember last minute printing, mounting on boards and unnecessary hassle the day before my wedding! On my travels I have seen and heard of quite a few good suppliers one of these being XOXO wedding stationers in Scotland (but you can order all online/ email). Check out these photos below….
