Mention the word "speech" for a wedding and immediately a look of concern, worry and angst will come over the faces of those who are expected to make a wedding speech.  Some couples decide to buck tradition and to have the speeches made before the wedding breakfast to 'get it over with', so they can then enjoy their meal.  Others suffer and sweat their way through a lavish wedding breakfast (

I love the idea of using menus as place settings.  Create an A6 size of your menu, personalise it with the initials, and date of the wedding, and theme colours.   Don't forget to leave space to write the guests name.  Hopefully by a very talented calligrapher.  These can then be placed in folder napkins at each place setting. http://www.napkinfoldedguide.com/
