Bees- Custom Place Cards- Laydown

Bees illustrated in the heraldic tradition — the kind of precise, confident rendering that appears on crests, embroidered silks, and the lids of Napoleonic snuffboxes. The warm neutral palette suits almost any table and any season. The oblong format lies flat without a holder, which makes the imagery especially clear at each setting. One of Karen and Martin’s personal favorites.

NO HOLDER NEEDED

Oblong: 16 place cards per pack | Event: 8 place cards per pack. See the Product Details tab for full specifications.

• Customize your place cards with your guest's names. With numerous fonts to choose from, you can have your cards arrive perfectly calligraphed with your guest's names printed on the backs. That's one less thing for you to do.
• Choose your style of calligraphy above, then add up to 16 guest's names for classic size, or 8 guest's names for Event size.
• Please note: Our standard practice is to feature first names only. Should you wish to include full guest names (first + last), a 50% surcharge will apply to the calligraphy fee, as each card requires additional design time and layout consideration.
• We even include a blank card called "Try your hand" to test your writing instrument if you want to write your names yourself or send them out to your calligrapher.
