Silver Heart Place Card Holders
By Deb Rosenberg
Place card holders are typically reserved for sit down meals and usually signal that it is an upscale event. Their origins are unknown but many say they stem from ancient times when people were placed closest to the host (guest of honor) in order of importance. Today it is still a formal recognition of one's seat placement at an event.
Silver place card holders are typically a sign of an elegant event - silver symbolizes of wealth, power and strength. It also represents achievement in the sense that many medals and trophies are made of silver. And most events that call for silver place cards also represent achievement, typically a marriage or wedding anniversary.
Of course, a heart symbolizes love. Love between spouses, a parent and child, and friends. From a young age we are taught that when we see a heart symbol to associate it with love. But it also symbolizes 'life' - after all, it is a beating heart that keeps us alive.
Combining silver and the heart symbol for a place card setting is a natural. It 'says' so much so simply. Of course it will make a beautiful presentation for your place cards table - one that your guests will 'ooh' and 'ahh' over.
In addition, they can serve as your party favors. Place card holders typically made wonderful photo and memo holders. And with your choice of a silver heart place card holder favor, your guests will be delighted to take them home and show them off in their own home.
