Engravevd Natural Rustic Half-moon Wooden Place Card Holder*
These rustic, half-moon, wooden card holders boast a natural look and texture that add an unforgettable element to your outdoor wedding. Each Engraved Natural Rustic Half-moon Wooden Card Holder is cut from real wood into a low half-moon that sits flat and steady on the table and grips a card upright along the top edge. At approximately 1"H x 1.75"W it is small enough to leave the centerpiece room to breathe, and solid enough that it will not tip when someone reaches across for the bread.
Use these wooden holders to display your table numbers that guests can keep at the end of the night as a favor. That is the part people remember. The number that told them where to sit goes home in a pocket or a purse, and months later it is still on a shelf next to the photo from your reception. Very few favors get used twice; this one is working the moment the doors open and it is still working the following week.
Each holder can be engraved in-house by HansonEllis, which has been personalizing gifts since 1999, with up to 10 characters on each of two lines. That is room for a table number, a guest's first name, two first names, your wedding date, or a short thank you. Engraved wood does not shout. The lettering sits into the grain in a darker tone, catches the candlelight, and looks like it belongs on a farmhouse table, in a barn, under a tent in a garden, or along a vineyard row.
Note: Because this is an all-natural product, slight variations in color and size may occur. No two pieces are exactly alike, and that is precisely what keeps a table of them looking gathered rather than manufactured. Set them down a long table with greenery and kraft cards, line them up on an escort card display by the entrance, or scatter them between the settings at a rehearsal dinner.
They keep working after the wedding, too: a holiday table, an anniversary dinner, a shower, or a desk at home where a card is standing where a photo used to be.
Add your engraving text above, choose how many you need, and give every seat a small piece of the day.

Which one should I choose
Most couples choosing how to seat their guests are deciding between a wooden holder, a folded card lying flat, and a hard holder in metal or glass.
| Engraved Natural Rustic Half-moon Wooden Place Card Holder | Choose it when the seating plan should match a natural, outdoor or rustic table and double as a favor guests keep, with the number or name engraved into the wood itself. |
|---|---|
| A folded paper place card laid flat | Choose it when budget and speed matter more than the table; it does the job for one evening and is cleared away with the plates. |
| A metal or glass card holder | Choose it for a formal ballroom setting; it looks polished but it reads modern rather than rustic, and guests are less likely to pocket it as a keepsake. |
For an outdoor or rustic wedding where the favor and the seating plan can be the same thing, the engraved wooden half-moon holder is the pick.
