(Closed) Do placecards and menus typically match invites?

I found a beautiful design that I’d like to use on my placecards and menus, but it’s quite different than the look and feel of my invites. I realize nobody is going to hold up the invitation against the menus and placecards, but do they typically match? would it be weird to go with something completely different?

My invites have birds/branches on them (we are getting married in a garden). But I found this gorgeous floral image that I just love for the menus, it’s really formal looking. I’d still use the same color scheme. What do you girls think?

I think that will still sort of match since they’re both nature-y. I would go for it!

I don’t think it really matters, especially since I’m not sure they will ever be directly compared to each other (except at your house, by you).

I am planning on having similar colors/images, but that’s just because I’m planning on making them both myself. If I weren’t they would probably have similar colors but different images. No biggie.

I would just have them match the formality of the wedding, the feel, and the style of the wedding.
