Wedding Cards Used in the Wedding Ceremonies and Reception
Aside from the cards that are sent out to inform the people about the wedding and the things that they can expect during the implementation of the event plan, there are also a lot of Wedding Cards that are used not only in the wedding ceremony but also during the gathering after the wedding rites.
Here are a few cards that are used during the wedding ceremonies and reception:

The workmates, colleagues, and other people important in the life of the couple may also be grouped accordingly.
- Wedding seating plan cards may also select the seats of people depending on the number of slots that are available in the wedding reception. This will allow a more organized seating arrangement. As an example, if a person who is initially invited to the wedding decided to bring another person to the event, that person will be seated separately if the wedding seating plan is strict and properly counted. This will help those who are invited in the wedding to have their seats first even if they will come late during the reception.

Wedding menu cards may group the food items depending on their kind or type, the part of the meal course where they belong, or the buffet selections should serving not be plated. It also entails the guests to choose the food items that they may consume if the wedding food serving is on a per meal or per course basis. A wedding menu card may also vary in design depending on the theme of the wedding or the food supplier of the event.
