    Hoping you guys have some great ideas.   We need to indicate what people are eating on their place cards: beef, chicken, fish, vegetarian. 

     The last served wedding that I had actually went to had a stamp of a cow, chicken, fish, or vegetable on the back for the place card.  I'm not sure where to get the stamps though. So not sure anyone has seen these stampes in a store, or have any other great and easy suggestions. 

    I need to make these in the next 2 days, just requested by my FMIL  *_*, so no time for any on-line ordering. Thank you!

    I bought these from a fellow weddingbee:

    http://www.paper-source.com/cgi-bin/paper/871306.html?cm_id=3810.220

    Not sure if there is a paper source store in your area. If not check Michaels, or any other craft stores. I'm sure if they don't have specific "menu stamps" they will atleast have animals and plants and you can purchase the ones you need.

    Another option - and more difficult option would be to print them off on your computer and glue them onto the cards if you can't find the stamps.

    You could also get little round stickers of different colours with each sticker representing a different meal.

    That's all I can think of at the moment.....

    good luck!!

    i think it would be pretty easy to use your wedding colors for each.  For example if you colors are purple, red, silver, and white, designate each color to a different meal.

    Oh yeah, I've totally seen the stickers in different colors for different meals. One wedding I had even had the foil stars like in gradeschool - we all loved it, since she was a teacher!
