A welcome sign stands at the entrance to the ceremony or reception, with a greeting, your names and the date. It is part of the signage, together with direction arrows, menus and the seating plan. It can be wood, acrylic, a mirror or paper on an easel.
Flowers decorate one corner or frame it. They have to last all day, often in sun or wind, so the usual choices are tough foliage, preserved flowers or fresh flowers with a water source. The easel needs a weight to keep it steady. The guide on welcome signs and wedding signage covers materials, sizes and legibility; the sample quotes show where it appears in the costs.
What to ask: who prints the text, who brings the easel, and whether the sign moves from the ceremony to the reception.
