Another great reception idea! Instead of a tent card why not write on fall leaves? These leaves I did for my client in San Francisco. Her whole wedding had a ginko leaf theme, and these settings definitely tied it all together. I wrote on each leaf with white calligraphy ink and they turned out swimmingly for her destination wedding in Hawaii!
In response to yesterday's post, these leaves would function as fabulous placecards.

These are so creative! I love when couples use something other than paper in their details!
Love it!
These are beautiful!
sigh. these are positively stunning!
What a great, organic and creative idea. Thanks!
Did you have to spray them with anything to make them remain flat? I also have a ginkgo theme, but am worried the leaves will curl. Help! Thanks!
Kelly - We order the leaves pre-pressed. I've never had a problem with them curling and have used them for several orders. If you are picking your own leaves, we'd recommend drying them in a heavy book and waiting until they are completely dry before writing on them. The leaves that are not dried are significantly more difficult to write on (unless you use something like a sharpie, which would probably work well regardless).
Did you have to spray the leaves with anything to make them not wilt or curl?
