    We had directional signs that were bought but our seating chart sign was DIY.

    We probably aren't doing much in the way of signs, but the few we are doing are going to do will be the same as the invitation in that I'll design them but Vistaprint will do the leg work with the printing...LOL.

    We didn’t have a lot of signs. We hired a friend to make them.

    I'm not sure if we're really doing any signs, but if we are I might just make them and print them at staples or something

    The same friend who is designing our invitations is going to make some signs that we can have printed. So while I'm not doing them myself it feels more DIY than buying them from a store or a stranger!

    I'm not sure I want any signs. I may do a welcome sign at the front but I'll get a friend of mine to make it for me. She has gotten really good with her cricut machine.

    We are going to be doing signs like this for our wedding but just haven't gotten around to it yet.

    I haven't even thought about this yet... I'll probably check Etsy before I do it myself though.

    For our signature cocktail sign and guestbook sign we bought little chalkboard easels from the dollar store and my MIL wrote on them. For our memorial window sign I bought a wooden sign from the dollar store, painted it and wrote our message out with stickers.

    We will be DIYing our signs, I don't think I have to many to do and hopefully how I see them in my head will be the way they turn out!

    I'll be doing some of the signs. I bought my stain, paint tools, and white paint, and now just need the wood materials. I also bought chalkboards and letter boards that I plan to use.

    This is the DIY I'm most excited about! Going to go the route of buying wood so the stain will match on all our signage. Also I don't have good handwriting so we'll be going with stencils

    A mix of DIY and using what the decorator has. A couple of them are pretty custom so those are the ones I'll be doing

    Yep, I'm doing all our signage. And I'm renting out as much of it as I can to make some money back from it all. I've got a bunch of requests for my unplugged ceremony sign, which I'm pretty stoked about.

    Again yes! We (I) bought some chalk boards and then me and my Sister/MOH wrote on them all the verbage.
