How to Make Photo Table Numbers in 3 Easy Steps
You can make your table numbers with photos from your smartphone, computer, or any digital device in three easy steps:
- Visit the shop and purchase the table numbers template of your choice. Scroll through the designs, pick the one you like best, and buy it.
- Insert your photos. Using the free program Adobe Acrobat Reader, you’ll insert your photos into the template. Note: You need the photos sized to 4″ x 6″ before inserting them. Insert the photos and save your files to your computer.
- Choose a print shop + print them out. You’ll be printing these out yourself, so pick a place to print them locally (a FedEx, Kinko’s or similar shop) to you OR choose an online printer and have them shipped to you.

Displaying Your Table Numbers
You will need holders to display these photo table numbers. I bought these from Amazon and LOVED the way they look! You can also use holders like these, available in antique copper, black, silver, gold, etc. For an affordable (sometimes even free!) option, ask your venue if they have number holders you can rent.
