Updated: Apr 20, 2023

Greet guests in style

If first impressions are everything, why not begin your wedding day with a detail that sets the scene for the rest of the celebrations. Your wedding welcome sign is the perfect way to showcase the style of your big day, so do not be shy and get creative.


To keep the event, feel cohesive, you will want your wedding welcome sign to echo themes featured elsewhere in your overall design scheme. Repeat fonts, colours and floral choices found on your invitation and other major décor moments for a planner-approved look.


Beyond that directive, though the sky is seriously the limit when it comes to what to display. For further inspirations, I rounded up a whole list of stylish wedding welcome sign ideas for you to examine. Whether you opt for an acrylic wedding welcome sign, a DIY wedding welcome sign, or a banner featuring a favourite song lyric or quote, rest assured that as long as you stay true to you, the style will perfectly vibe with your celebration.


1. Modern and Minimalist

A minimalist wedding calls for a simple welcome sign stating just the necessary facts; your names and wedding date.



2. Tropical Vibes

Nothing sets the scene for a tropical beach wedding like a palm tree! I love the way this neutral wedding sign plays into the colours of its sandy surrounds and the strategically placed disco balls amplify the party atmosphere.



3. Clear and Simple

Acrylic details are still trending hot for modern weddings! The key is to use them sparingly and to keep the design simple in order to highlight the clear material. This all-white acrylic wedding welcome sign receives top marks across the board.



4. Drink Up

Nothing starts a party like a glass of champagne! Place a festive display of bubbles next to your reception welcome sign and let the good times roll.



5. Groovy Baby

Terrazzo makes the perfect style statement for retro-inspired wedding. Add in arrangements peppered with burnt orange blooms and you have got the perfect look for a fall wedding.



6. A Clear Decision

Acrylic details make for a striking addition to any wedding. I love the way this simple welcome sign is really just a gateway to the colourful floral arrangement placed underneath.



7. Following Schedule

For the couple that values clear communication and the guests who like to know when it is all happening, there is the wedding welcome sign that also includes a schedule of events. For a romantic vibe, choose a fabric banner and accent with pillar candles.



8. A Simple Plan

While its edges may curve, the message on this funky orange welcome sign gets straight to the point.



9. Quiet Please

Your wedding welcome sign is the perfect opportunity to share important details about your ceremony. If you are looking to have an unplugged ceremony, be sure to explain your request in a prominent way.



10. Happy Campers

A summer camp wedding welcome sign pretty much requires a happy camper’s reference, do you not think? For an extra jolt of good cheer, add in mountain and forest details in a pop of bright green.



11. Clean and Simple

A sidewalk sign with interchangeable letters is an easy way to DIY a wedding welcome sign without spending a whole lot of extra cash. Include a simple but heartfelt message to your guests to add a jolt of warmth to the otherwise spare design.



12. Your Name in Lights

A neon wedding sign is a total triple threat! Hang it at the entrance of your welcome party, over your sweetheart table at the reception, and in your home after the wedding.



13. Follow your Arrow

Follow the direction of this fire engine red welcome party sign and use yours to point the way to the most important areas of your party.



14. Chalk It Up

For another sweet look that does not have to be custom made, go for a chalkboard wedding sign. The option is especially sweet for a more homespun ceremony taking place at a backyard wedding.



15. Monogram Moment

Your wedding marks the start of your life together and the beginning of your joint monogram. Twirl those letters together however your heart desires!



16. A New Frame of Mind

Set upon a dark wood easel, the gilded frame on this Welcome to our forcer sign creates a romantic first impression for a vintage inspired wedding.



17. Flower Power

Pressed blooms are a beautiful bit of flower power to add to the entrance of a boho weddings. To further emphasize a casual, carefree vibe, sit your sign directly on the ground.



18. Simply Chic

Laser cut lettering gives this classic gold and white wedding welcome sign a bit more oomph, while the acrylic easel helps it appear as though it is floating in the air.



19. Pretty in Pink

Your wedding welcome sign definitely does not have to be oversized! Place standard paper sized welcome signs atop cocktail tables for a similar effect. The tone-on-tone design of this dusty rose number is especially pretty.



20. Compliments Only

Your welcome sign is the perfect place to show some love for your guests! This beachy design begins with a cheeky compliment for attendees.



21. Get Lit

The best part about black wedding décor is that it can veer classic or modern, depending on how you style it. This punny wedding welcome sign fits into both categories, and the candle details are no brainer accents.



22. Royal Watch

This formal wedding welcome sign has a rich texture that pairs well with the silver lettering and intricate detailing on the mahogany easel. All in all, the look is serving sumptuous, regency style vibes perfect for a castle wedding.



23. A Banner Moment

While the mustard yellow hue of this wedding welcome sign could have easily stolen the show, the fabric material brings a softness to the design that helps it better blend in with the surrounding greenery.



24. In Your Dreams

Personalize your welcome sign with a chosen lyric from a romantic wedding song. The moment will feel even more special if you place the sign at the beginning of your aisle and play the song during your processional.
