Unique and Creative Ways to Display Your Wedding Table Numbers

Your wedding table numbers might not be the biggest or most important part of your wedding decor, but having a beautifully styled table setting definitely still matters when it comes to styling your wedding! By putting some creativity and thought into your table numbers, you can turn a small detail into a center-of-stage part of your table decor! Once you’ve got your table plan sorted, you will need table numbers and place cards to help guests and avoid any confusion. So, you might as well make them as fabulous as the rest of your decor.

If you’re looking for creative inspiration for your wedding table numbers that will go perfectly with the rest of your decor, then you’re in the right place! I’ve compiled a list of unique table number ideas to go with every single wedding theme.

Framed Prints

The most popular form of wedding table numbers are typically table numbers printed or handwritten onto card or paper and are framed. This simple table number design is easily customizable, and goes perfectly with a traditional or classic bridal theme.

Wood Numbers

Wood table numbers work perfectly with a rustic or barn-style wedding theme as they really offer that outdoorsy, rustic feeling. A white chalk or paint pen can transform an off-cut of wood, branch, bark, logo or tree stump into the perfect table number for your guests.

Acrylic Table Numbers

Keep your table setting modern and sleek with acrylic wedding table numbers. They're perfect for a minimalist theme if you're going for a less-is-more style. A frosted acrylic style table number is wonderful for a winter-wonderland style wedding. As well as simple acrylic cards, you can also look at acrylic blocks! Super modern and contemporary acrylic boxes can be stacked, filled with sparkles or foliage with the table numbers painted or drawn on.

Agate Slabs

Geode and agate are becoming increasingly popular in wedding styling circles, and, the beautiful natural rock formations can be used as personalized table numbers. Earthy and elegant, crystal-style Agate slabs or slices as table numbers really add a beautiful and unique flair to your wedding tablescape. With their rich tone and texture, they can be used for just about any type of affair, from an elegant ballroom to a rustic barn wedding.

Games-Themed

If you’re big into games, or you just want to add a bit of fun personality to your table setting, you can use games-themed elements as table numbers! A few ideas are… using playing cards, scrabble numbers or even uno cards!

Lantern Table Numbers

Lantern wedding table number ideas are so great for a rustic, beach or boho style wedding. They are the perfect balance of style and function, as you can easily display your table numbers on the lanterns and then also light them at night to get the tables twinkling.

Painted Bottles

This is a super easy one to DIY, and looks really quirky as part of the tablescape as a great centerpiece. Use old bottles and handpaint them a solid color, then painting or writing your table number on top, or using custom stickers. You can then add flowers, foliage or a candle to the table number bottle as well, to really elevate the styling.

Neon Lights

Get the disco party started with neon lights for your table numbers. Brighten up your wedding ceremony and light up the night! Just make sure your venue setup allows you to easily plug in (and hide) any necessary wires.

Chalkboard Signs

You can’t go wrong with a chalkboard sign for your table numbers. So easy to make yourself, and add a little personality into. They look great with casual, shabby-chic style wedding decor.

Flags

Table number flags make for a great and fun table decoration! If you’re looking to create a vintage or tea party style with your decor, cute handmade or printed flags are the perfect accessory.

Painted Rocks

Use painted rocks to determine your tables at your reception. You can easily do this as a DIY craft idea if you want a nature-inspired, earthy decor option that is affordable, and get all the family involved with helping you out making them!

Plant Pots

A great choice for rustic, garden, or botanical wedding themes, plant pots are a great centerpiece for your tablescape, and can easily be painted with a table number. You can also easily use terrariums for your table numbers if you want a nature-inspired, moss-filled table display.

Mirrors

Glamorous couples will just love the mirror wedding table number. Not only do they look gorgeous, they actually help to create the illusion of a larger room too. If you want to go down the DIY route, thrift stores and flea markets often sell bargain second-hand mirrors which you can easily write on with a glass marker pen.
