Wedding Menu Cards

A menu card does more than list what's for dinner — it's part of the table, part of the experience, and part of how your wedding aesthetic shows up in every seat in the room. Our menu cards are available in velvet, acrylic, and premium designer cardstock, each one crafted to feel like a natural extension of your invitation suite.

How Many Menus Do You Need?

One per guest alongside the place card is the classic approach — but plenty of couples go with one or two per table instead. What works best really depends on what you want the menu to do. Is it purely decorative? Does it need to communicate dietary information? Is it pulling double duty as an evening schedule? The answer to that shapes how many you need and how much content goes on each one.

What to Put on Your Menu Card

Start with a header — your names and wedding date, or a monogram. Then list your courses in order: appetizers, entrées, dessert. Note any common allergens where relevant, and add a drinks or wine pairing line if it fits your reception style. Need more space? We can increase the page count to fit everything in comfortably. Our designers will help you nail the layout, font pairing, and wording — reach out at care@polinaperri.com to get started.

How Many Menus Do You Need?

You can choose to place a menu card at every seat alongside the place card, or print a smaller number to share between guests at each table. The right choice depends on the role your menu is intended to play — whether it is purely decorative, communicates dietary information, or doubles as a schedule of the evening's events.

How to Write Your Menu Wording

A menu card typically opens with a title — your names and wedding date, or a monogram with your initials. This is followed by the menu itself, listing each course in order: appetisers, mains, and dessert. It is good practice to note any common allergens. You may also include a line about drinks or a wine pairing suggestion. If you need to include a longer menu or additional content, the number of pages can be increased accordingly.

Our designers will help you arrange the wording and select a font style and colour combination to match your wedding theme. To discuss your menu design, contact us at hello@polina-perri.co.uk.
