Are you trying to organise your on the day stationery for your wedding day? Let’s take a close look at labelling your wedding tables. Keep in mind, this is a place where your guests will spend the most amount of time, so adding cute details here doesn’t go unnoticed.
Wedding tables are traditionally identified by a number, however we find that table names are a simple way to add a touch of personality to your wedding day and can further echo your wedding theme, creating a cohesive look for your big day. The options are endless when it comes to table names, read on to find out our top 14 unique table name ideas.
Landmarks, locations or travel
Weddings are all about the small details, so why not take this opportunity to share your story with your friends and family. From your favourite beaches, countries or cities you have visited, street names you have lived at together or important landmarks, these all make for great table name themes.
Cities or countries. A list of places where you both have lived in or travelled to as a couple.
Holiday destinations. Places you have travelled and had adventures together at.
Suburbs or street names. The addresses you have lived in.
Beaches. If you are a beachy couple, then why not call out all of your favourite beaches. Hot tip; This theme is great if you are having a coastal wedding.
First date locations. The first encounter location, plus all the restaurants and places you had your first dates at.
Iconic monuments or the most romantic cities. Paris, Rome, New York… need we say more?
Botanicals, nature and science
Let nature inspire your wedding table name theme.
Flower or plant names. A collection of your favourite blooms are a great theme for your table names. This idea works especially well if you are having a spring or summer wedding. If you and your partner are houseplant obsessed, you could select a plant theme.
Horoscopes or star constellations. Are you and your partner star crossed lovers? Is your love story written in the stars? If you’ve answered yes, this is the theme for you. Hot tip; interstellar names will work perfectly for a night time wedding celebration.
Animals. Depending on the style, theme or location of your wedding you could play into an animal theme that works with your big day. For example, if your wedding is being held in the countryside, you could select woodland animals that you would find around the area. If you and your partner are animal lovers, you could select all of your favourites for your table names. Pet names also work here!
Films, movies, television, music or literature
If your partner and you have all the subscriptions (Netflix, Binge, Stan, Amazon Prime Video, Audible and Spotify) why not use all those hours consuming content to influence your wedding table names.
Favourite films, movies or television series. You could even include the first movies you watched together as a couple.
Bands or music genres you love.
Song lyrics. Lines from your favourite songs.
Famous duos. From Romeo and Juliet to Rachel and Ross, pick your favourite iconic couples, whether it be written on the pages in books or an on screen romance.
Famous authors, favourite books, or literary lovers. Are you an avid reader? A bookworm in your spare time? Draw inspiration from your favourite books to come up with a creative table name theme.
