How to choose
There are 24 pieces in Place Card Holders. The quickest way through them is to decide whether the holder has to match your theme, be kept afterwards, or arrive ready for a whole table.
| A holder that matches the theme | Choose the seashell holders for a beach or nautical wedding, the porcelain teapot for a tea party or bridal shower, and the mini ceramic vase for a garden or floral table. |
|---|---|
| A holder guests take home | Choose the wooden starfish photo frames or the heart photo frame with easel. The name card comes out after the meal and a photo goes in, so one piece does the job of the place card and the favor. |
| A holder bought by the table | Choose a set when you are counting tables rather than guests. The seashell holders come as a set of 12, the starfish frames as a set of 8 and the heart frames as a set of 4. |
| A holder bought one at a time | Choose the mini ceramic vase place card holder, sold each, for a head table, a small dinner or an exact guest count with nothing left over. |
| A holder with some humor in it | Choose the silver fortune cookie holders when the table should feel light, and for Asian menus, rehearsal dinners and office parties. |
