Traditionally place cards suggest a larger formal sit down dinner; however place cards can be used to add a special touch to any casual get together as well! They are the first thing your guest will see when they sit down, so why not have some fun and set the tone for your festivities!
As guests arrive, point them to their Thanksgiving place setting cards and invite them to fill out what they’re thankful for as they mingle and enjoy appetizers or cocktails. Then, whether you decide to do it as part of the blessing, before the meal, or afterwards, go around the table and have everyone share what they wrote. Hearing all the many reasons for which people are grateful reminds us to cherish all we have and, more importantly, who we have to share it with.
