Has anyone done these? I would love to see some examples. I have no idea how to group the food or make it sound fancy and more appealing.

Carolina - I had a buffet and made these menu cards and placed a couple on each table.

We did menu cards for our buffet. We placed one inside each napkin. Here is what our table looked like. I will find a better photo of the actual card to show you how we laid it all out.

We did not have a buffet, but I'll post our menu cards anyway.

It looks like you have your food groupings in the right order! :thumbsup2

Are you doing your cards yourself? If you are & have any specific questions on wording/ making the food sound even more appealing PM me I might be able to help! (I used to work for Shula's Steakhouse & wrote a lot of special menus for special events/ private functions @ the restaurant)

:goodvibes
 
I was going to ask this question tonight. Glad you brought it up because I was thinking about doing the same. :thumbsup2

Subscribing.

Those are beautiful! I am definitely going to PM you, I really want to come up with names that make the food sound more appetizing. OT what fabric did you guys have for your napkins?
 
I don't remember the script but the blocked letters are copperplate gothic light. (I think!). I don't think I have them saved anymore!

Darnit! I was going to ask you to email it to me. I love that font and I'm bound and determined to get it. :laughing:
 
Those are so cute did you make them yourself?

Yeah, I did. Well,.. okay, I did but I didn't. I had a wonderful graphic designer friend who designed my seating cards, invitations, menu cards, and programs. She designed, I just printed and cut and pasted :)

The menu cards were super duper easy. If you need help, let me know. I can give you step by step instructions. Piece of cake!
