Your wedding will probably be the most photographed day of your life, so pretty signs and props are a must-have. Chalkboards have become an extremely popular wedding accessory for a stylish vintage look. Chalkboards are incredibly versatile and have several different uses for them. We were going to call these ten must-have chalkboards, but we just couldn’t choose, so here are our 11 must-have chalkboards for your wedding.
What great way to start your fairy-tale wedding than with a happily ever after sign. It also serves the practical purpose of telling your guests where to go. This can be extremely useful for an outdoor wedding.

A wedding must have a welcome sign. This welcomes your guests and also has information about your day. We choose this one for its simple classic styling but cool retro frame. It includes crucial information, the bride and groom’s name and the date. Although the guests will know the date, having all the introduction photos in your album is important. We also think the eat, drink, and be married is a very cute touch.
Gone are the days of ushers sitting with the bride’s family on one side and the groom’s family on the other. This sign makes people feel at ease and know they can sit anywhere they like. You may still want to reserve the first few rows for elderly guests and immediate family.
What a beautiful heart-shaped sign. And what chalkboard wedding would be complete without a here comes the bride sign?
Now that the ceremony is over, let’s head to the reception. You must have a seating plan for your guests to know what table to go to. A-frames chalkboard is a beautiful addition to an important part of the wedding.

If you have chosen a set menu and there are choices to be made, it pays to give your guests the choices early so they have time to make up their minds. This will make taking orders go far more smoothly. Why not put the menu on a chalkboard so it can be seen when entering the reception?

A bar menu is also essential, or why not do his and her’s cocktails and put them on your bar?

We think the Jenga idea is a cool twist on the guest book. We love the sign used here too. It is a painted silver tray.
Choose the same kind of frame for all your chalkboards and get different sizes to get a sense of conformity. You can achieve all these designs with a set of 4 Crafty Croc White Chalk Markers, or if you want a bit of color, the soon-to-be-released celebration pack.
So whether you use one of these chalkboards or all of them, there is no doubt it will add to the atmosphere of your wonderful day.
