When planning your wedding there are so many ways to add that extra personal touch that will show how much thought you put into the little details.   A great example of this is the table numbers at your reception.  Rather than naming your tables by number, you can incorporate your personality into this process in a fun and surprising way.

Below are a few creative table number ideas for your wedding:

• Destinations: Name each table after destinations that matter to you and your husband. You can include anything from the street that you grew up on to the college you attended or even your vacation destinations.
• Words: Name each table after words that inspire your relationship, such as romance, harmony, faith and adoration.
• Poets: Are you a poet?  Name each table after your favorite Poet and add a unique verse from your favorite poem.
• J’Adore: Name each table at your reception “Love” in different languages from around the world.
• Photos: WeddingByColor suggested creating photo table cards featuring images of yourself, or even your beloved pet, holding the table number.  I love this idea and created a sample on a Wedding Paper Divas Save the Date Card:

Happy Planning!
