How to Choose the Right Size

Consider Your Venue: Larger outdoor venues need bigger signs (A1-A2) to be visible, while intimate indoor spaces work beautifully with A3-A5 sizes.

Viewing Distance: Signs that guests will read from far away (welcome signs, seating plans) should be A1 or A2. Signs viewed up close (table numbers, menus) can be smaller.

Amount of Text: More information requires larger signs. A detailed seating plan needs A1, while a simple table number works perfectly at A5 or A6.

Your Style: Minimalist weddings often use smaller, understated signs, while grand celebrations embrace larger statement pieces.
