Who doesn’t get stressed out by the thought of figuring out the massive puzzle aka seating arrangements for all of your friends and family? Not to worry– seating assignments can actually be a fun element of the wedding! Not all receptions are required to have the standard seating chart or escort-card table. Embrace the challenge and show off all of your hard work in a memorable way.

The ballon chandelier is a super easy and inexpensive DIY that will make a bold seating statement.  Check out WeddingChicks.com for clear instructions on how to craft this clever seating display.  Your guests will love checking out your favorite pictures as they look for their table assignment.  It’s these personal touches that give your wedding reception an intimate feel.

What guest wouldn’t be excited to look for their name within a heart-shaped target practice?  This playful presentation is perfect for any outdoor nuptials!  Names/table numbers are printed on vibrant arrows and then are secured  within a perspex frame.  Take a look at Ruthie and Ian’s Napa Valley wedding for more inspiration.

The creative possibilities are endless for a unique seating “chart” masterpiece.  Don’t let the stress of organizing guests bog you down– go for a dramatic display to bring the excitement back!
