30 Fun Ideas for Wedding Table Names
I'm not entirely sure why we feel the need to name all of the tables in our reception venues. Perhaps we fear people can't count numbers. Or perhaps it's a deeper desire to give all guests a sense of identity and belonging, bringing them closer to the couple by associating themselves with their favourite Disney character. Whatever the reason, it's fun and we LOVE it! But coming up with 10-12 names on a single theme can be tricky.
If you're having an obvious wedding theme, such as New York Glamour, then it would make sense to keep the tables in line with the theme (places in New York, New York film titles, etc.) but if your theme is less specific, maybe just based on a colour or flower, you may need some inspiration!
Here are our top 30 wedding reception table names - enjoy! (And apologies for the super gooey ones!)
