Five Signs You Need For Your Wedding Day

Who doesn't love a beautiful crafted, hand written sign? We're signage obsessed here at RMW and love how they can bring together your wedding styling beautifully. Use the same font as your wedding stationery, tie in your colour scheme and the final result will be cohesive, gorgeous and super stylish. Use signs to tell you guests what's going on, where to go when and what they will be eating. Our favourite ideas include the 'unplugged ceremony' sign - where guests are told to put those pesky phones away during the ceremony, and the dance floor rules post as seen in the Rock My Wedding book, Your Day Your Way. For more ideas we love, read on... Having a sign to welcome guests and direct them where to go is a lovely way to greet them as they arrive. Not only does it set the tone for the day, but if you use the same colour scheme and font as your stationery, then it helps to make your whole wedding day look really cohesive.

Guests like to know what they will be doing all day, an having an order of the day sign helps them to know where to be and when. Just let them know the key timings - such as the ceremony, food, speeches and when the party will draw to a close.

Perhaps one of the newest signs to be seen at weddings - the unplugged ceremony sign. If you want guests to put their phones away and not take any photographs during the ceremony, then you need one of these signs. Whether you ask them to keep phones away for the rest of the day or not is up to you, but having an 'unplugged' ceremony makes your photographers job so much easier.

This is a great way to save money - have a menu sign rather than printing individual menu cards for each place setting. Make sure you place it somewhere that everyone can see and include all of your courses.

If you're allocating seating at your wedding, then you definitely need a table plan to show people where to sit. No matter how clear you think it is, people will always get confused, so try to place it in the same room as your tables and so it clearly replicates the way the tables are laid out.
