Claire & James
One long table seats everyone, so every toast is heard from both ends.
Part of the TinselLux™ collection: invitations in stitched leather, tufted velvet, linen and satin.
The material is the card: linen with a visible weave, velvet with a nap, leather with its grain. It costs the same as every other invitation.
See the collectionThis wedding invitation is for a marriage kept to one table. Twelve people arrive at a house in dinner attire, find their names on place cards, and sit down together for the evening. There is no head table and no room to move between. The couple sits among the guests, candles run down the middle, and dinner is served in courses to everyone at once.
The toasts happen between courses, said sitting down, because nobody needs a microphone to be heard across twelve chairs. People stay at the table far longer than they planned. When it finally breaks up, it is for coffee in the next room or a last glass on the porch, with the same twelve people who were there when the first plate came out.

What to actually tell people
- Seat the table before the day Twelve chairs means every pairing is visible all night. Write the place cards yourself, put the quietest guests near the middle, and give the two ends to people who will keep conversation moving.
- One menu, so ask early A kitchen cooking for twelve cannot improvise a second main course. Ask about allergies and what people do not eat when the RSVP comes in, and hand the full list to whoever is cooking a week ahead.
- Set the toast order with the courses Decide who speaks and when, then tell the kitchen so plates do not land mid-sentence. Two or three toasts between courses is enough for a table this size.
- Say what dinner attire means here Guests will ask. Tell them whether it is a jacket, whether the floors are stone, and whether any part of the evening is outside, so nobody arrives dressed for a different kind of wedding.
