It’s a sign! For the lyric-lovers, wordsmiths, and fans of all things punny, letter boards are the perfect way to say what you need to say. They’re certainly a mainstay here at GWS. We’re mostly inspired by quotes about wine + coffee – can you blame us? – but we LOVE the idea of using them for all your wedding festivities! You can really, ya know, say a lot, with a letter board or a light box sign.
Here’s a roundup of 10 fun ways to say it loud, say it clear…
Make the Announcement

Let ’em know! One bonus to using a letter board in your marriage announcement, save-the-date, or even an elopement announcement as that it’s essentially a two for one. Meaning, no need for graphics! Just snap the letters in, snap the super-cute photo, and you’re good to go!

Put Your Hashtag on Display

Get that social media photo collection rolling! Wedding hashtags are a mainstay these days, so might as well make it look cute for the ‘gram!
Say it with a Song (or a Quote!)

Not sure what to say? Use your favorite song lyrics to infuse some personality into your day! Make ’em funny or romantic — we like both, as long as it’s personal to you!
For the Favors
Simple + thoughtful: Light up the room with sweet a thank you message at the favor table!

There are so many fun options for this one! Use a giant letter board to list out guest names and table numbers, opt for a light box sign, or put your own creative spin on it! We’re suckers for incorporating florals, by the way.
Make a Menu

Besides the beautiful celebration of the two of you coming together in marriage, of course…guests are coming for one thing: free food and drinks! So why not give ’em a little something to look forward to and put it all on display?
Label the Cake Table
“Do You Want a Piece of Me” is definitely one of our favorite lyric options for this space.
Go Vintage with a Cinema Light Box

Finally, at the end of the day you can bring the letter board home and leave some honest notes for your new spouse! It’s the decor that keeps on giving.
Are letters your thing? Pin it!
