DIY Wedding
Table No. and Photo Scavenger Hunt

We decided to utilize our awesome engagement photos so I made these table numbers. I added the text in my Macs version of Word and popped them into some acrylic frames we got from the dollar store.

The back was blank and oh-so-boring so I decided to add a Photo Scavenger Hunt for our guests to have some fun. They include things like getting photos of: "the messiest cupcake eater", "FH and I looking at each other", and "the youngest couple/oldest couple". The list on each table is different so hopefully we get a lot of great shots. I included my email address at the bottom so guests can email their favourite shots to us! Also, whatever guest wants to take them home at the end of the night can have them!

Just one more thing checked off the list!

(if anyone wants the list of scavenger hunt pictures i used just let me know! it took me awhile to think of all of them!)

***UPDATE***
Because you ladies asked for it....on every table we had "Group photo of everyone at your table" and "Photo of each family or couple at your table". Then every table had a different list of photos (there might be a couple doubles). Here is the list of shots I used:

• Bride & Groom holding hands
• Groom watching Bride from a distance
• Bride & Groom first dance
• Mother of the Bride not crying!
• Wedding cupcakes
• Someone making a toast
• Groom playing with his ring
• Best dancer (in action)
• Bride & Groom kissing
• Bride watching Groom a distance
• Bride and her father's first dance
• Cutest couple (not the Bride & Groom)
• Favourite decoration
• People clinking their glasses
• Bride playing with her rings
• Worst dancer (in action)
• All 4 of the Bridemaids
• People laughing
• Bride's shoes
• A table who doesn't know their picture is being taken
• Artistic shot of the centrepieces
• DJ sticking his tongue out
• Messiest cupcake eater
• Photographer taking a picture
• All 4 of the Groomsmen
• People laughing

• A table who doesn't know their picture is being taken

• Bridesmaid telling a secret
• Quietest guest
• Bride & Groom making a toast

• Guest least likely to get married

• Father of Bride or Groom making a toast
• Bridesmaid dancing
• Bride fixing her dress
• Group shot of the table next to yours
• Person who has known the Bride the longest
• Bestman making a toast

• Someone looking way too sexy
• Groom playing with his ring
• Someone laughing

In case you wanted it the poem that we used is:
"Use your camera & look around,
Hunt for those pictures that need to be found!
Shoot away and complete the list,
Find moments the photographer may have missed!"

Hope all that helps!!!

OH this is an amazing idea, when ever my day dcides to come around I will more than likely be stealing this from you.  It incorporates several things that I wanted to do in to one.  I was going to do the scavenger hunt just for the kids, (but why not let the adults in on it), I wanted to let people know where to send the pictures they take, (and well why not put that on the table).  These are beautiful, I would have been concerned if you could see the numbers okay, but they show very clear, GREAT JOB!

I love these! I have been looking into doing double sided photos for my table numbers.  Did you print these double sided, or is it two separate pieces???

mrshannon: it's 2 separate pieces. the photos are printed on actual photo paper so they are a tad glossy and the scavenger hunt is just on regular computer paper. glad you like them!

I LOVE this idea! Question: did you leave it up to the guests to have cameras and then email you the pics or set up a website they could post them on? Or did you put out disposable cameras?
