DIY table plan

Hiya, I'm making my own seating plan but unsure what to display it on? All I can think of is a large frame but these seem to be quite pricey! X

    I guess it depends on what style you're going for. I'm getting married in old stone building with a rustic style so I just bought A2 sheets of really thick card and mounted 7" vinyl on it to represent tables.

    We're using a cork noticeboard! We're loosely stringing string across it and using little wooden pegs with white hearts to clip the table lists to the string. The table lists are written on rustic card.

    I'll have to finish it and upload a photo because it honestly looks better than it sounds!

    We recently went to a wedding where each table's guests were listed in an ornate photo frame. Only drawback was that I didn't actually see if there was a plan as to which table was which, so me & aged FiL had to tootle around every table to see if any of our names were on them.
