Wedding Sign Sizes — A Quick Reference

Getting the size right matters for how a wedding sign actually reads in a venue — here are the sizes most couples use.

Common sizes by sign type

  • Welcome sign: A1 or A2 (large format, placed on an easel)
  • Seating chart: A1 or A2, sometimes larger for 100+ guests
  • Table numbers: A5 or A6
  • Table name/theme signs: A5
  • Order of the day / timeline sign: A3 or A2

A rule of thumb

The further guests will stand from a sign, the larger it needs to be — a welcome sign viewed from several metres away needs much bigger text than a table number read from arm's length.
