Napkins 101: Understanding Your Options for Wedding Napkins

When it comes to your wedding day, even the smallest details can make a big impact. One such detail is your choice of napkins. From paper cocktail napkins to linen dinner napkins, there are many options to choose from. In this blog post, we'll take a closer look at the various options for wedding napkins to help you make the right choice for your special day.

Paper Cocktail Napkins

If you're looking for a simple, affordable option for your bar, paper cocktail napkins are the way to go. These napkins come in a variety of colors and patterns, so you can choose the one that best matches your wedding theme. And, because they are disposable, you won't have to worry about the hassle of washing and ironing them after your wedding.

When it comes to paper cocktail napkins, there are two main printing options: single color printing and full color printing.

Full Color Printing on White

Single color printing is a more affordable option, and it allows you to choose from a variety of colors for your napkins. This option is perfect for those who want a simple and elegant look.

Full color printing, on the other hand, allows for more intricate designs, including watercolor work like crests or pet portraits. This option is perfect for those who want to utilize our watercolor work on their napkins.

Within the realm of paper cocktail napkins, there are two napkin types that we offer. The first is a standard 3-ply cocktail napkin, pictured on the left below. On the right is our slightly elevated napkin, which is sometimes called “linen-like.” It is a thicker, sturdier napkin with a nice texture and it feels a bit softer in the hand. A luxurious choice for weddings!

Linen Cocktail Napkins for Guests

If you're looking for a high-end favor for your guests, linen cocktail napkins are the perfect choice. These napkins are made from high-quality linen and we work with specialty printers to print your watercolor image on the napkin. They're also reusable, which means that your guests can enjoy them long after your wedding is over.

Linen Dinner Napkins with Custom Crest or Monogram

For a truly elegant touch, consider linen dinner napkins printed with a custom crest or monogram. These napkins add a touch of sophistication to your reception, and you can enjoy them in your home long after your wedding.
