How many signs is too many?

@MrsD17, they aren't instructional signs of "do's and don't's" , but to each their own.

MrsD17, long haired hippy people need not apply.

Is it sad that I had to google what new potatoes were?

Gymmie is right.

I'm not having any signs. people will figure out what's at the buffet and ask about the cake flavors if they have an allergy

I think it's a lot of signs. Maybe just one sign for all the social media. The labeling the food makes sense to me and as a person with food allergies I appreciate them !

The only signs i am doing is the seating chart and one for the memorial area

I think if the signs serve an actual purpose it's fine. But like the "love is sweet, grab a treat" stuff is unnecessary.

Guest 1: "Hmmm I wonder where the bar is?"

Guest 2: "Over there by the bar sign."

Guest 1: *sighs relief*

You're absolutely right, OP to each his/her own.

I think our guests will know where to find the bar, food and probably even the rest rooms, but that's just me.

Edit punctuation matters

I liked the sign for the food for people who have food allergies. I do not think you need any more signs. I like the ideas of signs!

I think it will work. Just avoid making your venue look like the 1960's batcave (labels everywhere)

What does the bar sign say? I agree, you could put the hashtag on the welcome sign

Often 1 sign is too many. Do guests really need a sign, next to the guestbook laying on a table with a pen, that reads "Please sign our guest book"?

I think it depends. We have a few signs: pointing in the direction of the bathrooms because they're out of the way) arrow when people drive up because we are behind another building, guest book sign because we have a unique guest book (it's an old riding saddle as FH and I horseback ride together), reception seating sign, and signs at the dessert table for allergies. Similar to many of yours they make logical sense to ease peoples' potential sense of confusion (and frankly I don't want people asking me all night where to find things like the bathrooms). FH is in camp no signs so we had a fairly extensive discussion about which ones made logical sense and which didn't.

@MrsD17 - I had no idea on top of your insults and quips that I would also be receiving a grammar lesson from you as well! How lucky am I? You're so gracious. However, I believe I requested ideas to be welcome, not insults.

@Leah - definitely not the "love is sweet" or any other rhyme-y signs. @Dreamer, no guestbook sign either. Welcome sign is combo for seating chart, so no additions there either.

Girl, you already have too many.

We have a welcome sign in the front and a thank you sign for the card table. Our only guest with allergies is getting a separate plated meal as opposed to the buffet, so signs for the food are unnecessary in my case. I do love the design of your menu, though! Just use what you think is appropriate.

I am one who loooves diy and signs, although I don't find that welcome signs are necessary. The food signs are okay. Thoughtful. If you want people to be using their phone and taking lots of pics and all that, a small sign for the social media stuff would do. Other than that, I feel like it's too much and unnecessary. Honestly, people don't really care or notice.

But if you're excited and want them, so be it haha

@Britten, I did not insult you or provide a grammar lesson. You asked how many signs is too many and I shared my opinion.

I agree with PP that if the sign has a true purpose, then it is a good sign. Those that exist for the purpose of being cute are unnecessary. Signs are usually more necessary when the venue is not easily navigable. My venue is very condensed, so I will not need many signs at all. However, if the ladies room is behind the second hay bale on the left, then a restroom sign might be helpful to your guests.

(Just remembering that I bought a sign that says "love" at Marshall's. Excuse me while I go berate myself.)
