A piece of furniture that is at your venue can work for a gift table.
But, if you find something to repurpose in your future home together is even better!
We looked for a collection of ideas to help make a beautiful gift table area. Hobby Lobby has great selections of entrance tables or sofa tables that can serve double duty!
Maybe you will like an interesting piece it does not require a tablecloth. Their selection ranges from wood, weathered, shabby to solid white tables.

If you need a tablecloth, think about anything that covers your table. Tablecloths are obvious but also think fabric, burlap and curtains to make table covers.
We like to use curtains for table runners and toppers! Curtains are already seamed and come in lengths of 84, 96 and 120 inches by 58″. That’s a good bit of fabric for less than $20 on sale. After the wedding, just wash and hang them in your home!

Furniture pieces for gift table ideas
A church pew, bench, antique sofa or an antique piece of furniture can add personality to your wedding gift table area. As long as it will hold gifts, it doesn’t matter if it’s a table!
Gift Card Signage
Signs help guests know what you want them to do! “Gifts” signs let guests know, “hey, drop your sweet gift here please!” That sounds crazy, but you’d be surprised how many people are still unsure what to do even with a sign!
The gold metal “gifts” sign is more formal, but can still add elegance to a rustic wedding! Or if you are a rustic bride, there’s always the wood and burlap signs.

Don’t forget to have someone assigned to take those gifts home with them if you are leaving the wedding heading straight for your honeymoon!
We always incorporate a Bible verse in our weddings and events. The gift table area is a place you can display your favorite Bible verse on an easel or even smaller signs on the table!
