- 1). Plan the details for the menu holder that you want to have at your wedding reception. Menu holders come in a range of options: basic acrylic shields, small metal (or plastic) stands, wooden frames and wire frame easels. Each of these can be an excellent option, although decorating small metal stands tends to be the simplest approach. The small metal stands will pinch the menu from the bottom in order to hold it in place, but it will also enable guests to remove it easily, review the meal, and pass the menu to others at the table.
- 2). Purchase the metal stands from your local craft supply store or from an online wedding supply merchant. Look for the type of stands that are typically used to display cards (such as Christmas cards). Locate stands that are as simple as possible so that you can focus on providing the decoration for them.
- 3). Use the spray paint to provide the color you want for the metal stands. Be sure to spray the stands outdoors, covering the ground with a large layer of newspaper to catch paint that falls. Check all sides of the stands as you are spray painting them to ensure that you do not miss any areas.
- 4). Add decorative accessories to the stands after they dry. Depending on the theme at the reception, you can accessorize the menu holders any way that you prefer. Fresh flowers around the base of the stand can add an elegant touch, or a simple ribbon tied around the menu holder can tie it in with the wedding colors.
