Guests find their names on hand-stamped necklaces, each chain also containing a charm: a feather, key, or wing. The charm indicates their table number, and another hand-stamped piece at the table signifies each guest s seat. Guests will be thrilled to take these customized baubles with them, too. 58 Carolina Bride
