When you’re shopping for something like napkins for wedding reception celebrations, you may not know where to start. Chances are, you’ve never had to buy personalized napkins before, or even custom wedding napkins for that matter. We’re here to help!

You may have searched for napkins online and thought, how much are napkins supposed to cost? Or my favorite, how many wedding napkins should I order? Those are big questions that most brides ask before they even find the napkins they want to order.

And most of all, everyone wants to know where to buy wedding napkins fast and personalized. That’s easy: here at For Your Party!

Since paper napkins for wedding receptions and bridal showers are all the rage right now (and honestly, all the time), we’re showing you where to buy wedding napkins for your big day from the best place that has fun, personalized wedding napkins for receptions with examples from here.

Napkins for Wedding Reception

These printed napkins from ForYourParty offer many colors, both the napkin itself and font; in addition to any color combination, you can include any design or artwork, any combination of designs, and fast shipping.

That. is. amazing.

How many wedding napkins should I order?

If you’re wondering how many cocktail napkins to order for the wedding reception, it is recommended to buy at least 3-4 cocktail napkins per guest; these can be kept at the bar.

For dinner napkins, plan to buy at least 1.5 napkins per guest. For a wedding of 200 guests, you’ll buy 300 wedding napkins. For 100 guests, you will order 150 napkins.

What kind of printed napkins can I order?

ANYTHING! For your reception, pick personalized wedding napkins with your initials, the wedding date, one giant monogram, or a themed detail. For instance, a fall wedding might include a gold foil leaf and your initials. The fun thing about this shop is they always have new inspiring designs to choose from, so check back often. :)

One of my favorite ideas is to do this “fun fact” napkin design. On it, guests can learn interesting things about you as the bride, the groom, or as a couple.

Do I use paper napkins for wedding receptions?

For the dinner table at a sit-down or buffet-style dinner, you’ll still use the traditional table linens (fabric napkins like this). However, for the cake, you will provide a cocktail napkin, as well as custom napkins at the bar.

For a less formal wedding (think: cool, low-key bbq wedding in the backyard or on the beach), you can use printed wedding napkins instead. In this case, order extra wedding napkins so guests have plenty of them available.

How much are wedding napkins?

Wondering how much to spend on wedding napkins? Here’s the breakdown of what they cost.

When you buy a larger quantity of wedding napkins, you’ll get a better price. You’ll also save on shipping when you combine everything together, so if you’re planning to order wedding napkins it’s a good idea to also buy your stadium cups, matches, masks, hand sanitizer, etc. all at one time (and all from the same shop).
