I am looking to order printed napkins for my reception, dessert size I think. I am wondering if anyone knows if it is more traditional to use a monogram or to spell out the last name on the napkin. I can't decide which I like better. Also, if we are having 200 guests and using these for the cake, how many should I order?

Thanks!

I would recommend ordering 200 for your 200 guests, keeping in mind that noy everyone will eat cake. Also, I like the on letter monogram, it looks the classiest in my opinion.

I definately like the idea of monogram better. I just ordered all the napkins for my wedding and think you will be very satisfied with the product.

Also, I ordered more than I needed to be safe and also since the price goes down as your order size increases, I figured i woould just go for it and then have the extra napkins around after our wedding as a fun reminder of our big day!

Good luck.

I was just thinking of the same question... how many napkins do I need? I'm thinking I will use them for passed hors d' orves, open bar, and cake, too. With approx. 115 guests, is 600 napkins enough?

Thanks!

I would order 250, it's always good to have extra! Plust then you can have some for anniversaries in the coming years.
I'd definitely go with the monogram!
