Will you have a wedding menu at the wedding supper????

Hi Liga, I think if your going to do something do it all the way. Every little detail has its own place.

That's my thoughts Shannon...I will have as well, and it is part of table decoration!

Yes I feel its adds a special touch. It's a finishing touch on the place setting.

I’m on the fence about this. Our wedding package allows for a family style dinner, where we choose two main proteins and guests will be able to serve themselves from the dishes (these will be set on the tables as opposed to buffet style). Or we can serve one protein first, and give guests the option of having the second of preferred. We still have to finalize with our vendor as to what the best options would be, and then decide from there!

No were doing doing a wedding menu. i feel like theyre wasted and no one reads them as theyre all chatting and drinking while at the table

Ours are included with our vendor because our guests choose the night of. I wouldn’t do it otherwise because it can add up

I wanted to do one but ultimately did not for a variety of reasons. As a guest I think they’re great tho!

We're having a barn wedding so I'll probably just pick up a free pallet and paint it or use one of the easels we'll be allowed to use for free and write it out nicely on a chalkboard (and by that I mean stencil it and use some sort of chalk paint or something because I don't trust myself...). Wings, poutine bar, garden (and maybe caesar) salad, with s'mores and cupcakes as late-night snacks (probably brought out around 9-ish).

Amelia...Of course, it is not a big deal to have or not to have menu cards, in my case it is part of table decor!

Rayanne Oh, that's nice, then you don't need to print your own!

I would like to have a menu card! We shall see when it gets closer.

We actually didn't have menu cards/signs at our wedding - it was one of those things I completely forgot about lol

IMO, I find they are like programs - they just get left behind and only a handful of people will look at them. If anyone was curious, the waitstaff was able to answer questions about the menu.

But guests didn't really notice/care and to my knowledge, everyone loved the food! We also asked people about any dietary restrictions in our RSVP so they knew they were covered.

We just put the menu on the wedding website so if people were actually curious then they would be able to see what we were having and could ask about dietary restrictions/concerns.

We did and it was great to know what courses vegetarians got served and late night buffet indicated rather than making an announcement.

Since I'm designing and printing everything myself, I thought I may as well add in a menu card too. Ours will also be a fixed menu, but includes a vegetarian dish if requested on the RSVP card. I'm actually in the midst of printing them now lol. I'm also going to make up a board by the bar so everyone knows what canapés will be circulating the room during cocktail hour.

Menu Card

I wouldn't bother with menu cards for each place setting, but maybe a larger board or a few framed on each table.


Odds are people either forgot what they picked on the RSVP or they've been looking forward to the meal since they picked it!

Our venue does provide menu cards for each table. I will put them on each one so everyone knows how much food is coming so they don't fill up on the first courses and miss out.

No because our guests are choosing their meals so a menu isn’t necessary.
