A welcome sign at your wedding sets a warm, inviting tone as guests arrive. It helps direct them to the right location, especially if the venue is large or has multiple entrances. The sign can also communicate important details, like the order of events or a special message. Additionally, it enhances the overall aesthetic and theme of your wedding, serving as a stylish decoration that ties the day together. Overall, a welcome sign adds a personal touch and helps ensure a smooth, well-organised experience for your guests.

A wedding welcome sign typically includes the couple’s names, the wedding date, and a warm greeting or welcome message. You may also include the event’s location, schedule details, or directional information to guide guests. Some couples add a short, personalized message, a favorite quote, or a thank-you note. The design often reflects the wedding theme, colors, and style to maintain visual cohesion. Additional elements like floral designs, monograms, or illustrations that complement the decor can also be featured. The key is to provide essential information while adding a decorative touch that enhances the overall ambiance.

Wedding welcome signs can be crafted from a variety of materials, depending on the desired style and setting. Common options include:

  1. Wood – Ideal for rustic or vintage themes, offering a warm, natural look.
  2. Acrylic – Provides a modern, sleek appearance, often with clear or frosted finishes.
  3. Chalkboard – Great for DIY or casual weddings, allowing for handwritten messages.
  4. Metal – Adds a touch of elegance and durability, suitable for industrial or chic themes.
  5. Foamcore or Foamex – Lightweight and affordable, often used for custom prints.
  6. Glass – Offers a refined and delicate option, perfect for elegant weddings.

The size of a wedding welcome sign depends on the venue and the desired visibility. Common sizes include:

  1. A2 (16.5 x 23.4 inches) – Suitable for smaller, more intimate venues or indoor settings.
  2. A1 (23.4 x 33.1 inches) – A popular choice for most weddings, offering good visibility without being overwhelming.
  3. 24 x 36 inches – Ideal for larger venues or outdoor settings where a bigger sign is necessary for easy reading.

These sizes ensure the sign is easily noticeable and readable from a distance, helping guests find their way and feel welcomed.

The wedding welcome sign should be placed in a highly visible location where guests will see it upon arrival. Common spots include:

  1. Entrance of the Venue – Position it near the main entrance or entryway where guests first arrive.
  2. Reception Area – Place it prominently at the start of the reception space or near the guestbook.
  3. Ceremony Location – If the ceremony and reception are in different locations, position it at the ceremony site’s entrance.
  4. Directional Points – Use it at key points to guide guests to different areas like the gift table or restrooms.

Ensuring the sign is visible and accessible helps guests feel welcomed and informed.

Order your wedding welcome sign at least 4 to 6 weeks before your wedding. This timeframe allows for customisation, production, and any potential revisions. If you’re working with a vendor who requires proofs or multiple design iterations, or if you have a tight timeline, consider ordering even earlier. This lead time ensures the sign is ready and arrives well before the event, giving you time to address any last-minute details or adjustments. For peak wedding seasons or custom designs, allowing extra time can help avoid any rush fees or delays.
