Nah....
I don't think it's popular at all functions..

My Mom just got a hugeeeeee flowered centerpiece this past weekend at a wedding - I mean HUGE!

From what I understand someone outs a penny under the plate and they win a centerpiece. One per table.... How does that cause a problem? And if they don't want it yes they will pass it to someone else, but that's not my problem lol ;-)

I said I didn't understand why the penny under the chair/plate caused a problem. In your OP you said that it did, because you were still essentially picking someone? I didn't understand why it would.

Oh I see. That's because I was assigning seats with place cards

At the last baby shower I was at everyone self addressed an envelope for the mom-to-be to send her thank-you card in. The envelopes were put in a bag an were chosen to determine prize winners.

I have no clue if people need them that badly, I'm not one for taking them from any party I go too!
I just know that people do -- some take 2 i've seen! LOL


Was just an idea to have a raffle ticket attached to a card w/ a poem and then I'd (or my Mom) would call out the number - avoids any issues ... it's a small party, 9 tables max...

Was just an idea --- If I have 9 tables, do 9 birthday's closest??

Thanks! for all the help!

The person at each table with the closest birthday of the event gets the centerpiece. As long as you do not have twins or people with the same b-day at each table you should be good.

If you do have that then pick a number and have them guess it as a tie breaker.

I would have everyone write down a special memory or birthday wish for the birthday person and then put them in a bowl. You can read them out loud and give a centerpiece to every 3rd (or whatever number works out) slip you draw.

Another idea, you can still assign the plates at each table, but ask one of the kids to please put a penny under a random plate, then put the place cards on the tables. Just make sure the kiddo has clean hands.
