DECAdry Place Cards for Folding 200gsm 6 per A4 Sheet 85x46mm when Folded - Ref OCB3713-3 (Pack of 1(132 Cards)

Like nearly everything to do with weddings, pre-printed table name cards cost a small fortune, and with terrible handwriting and limited free time, I didn't want to have to write name cards out by hand. These came to the rescue at a fraction of the pre-made price. They are good quality, sturdy card, easy to perforate and stand up well on the table. You can download a template online to use with Word, though I'd personally advice using the online programme Top Table Planner, which is compatible with this pack and allows you to auto generate a PDF file with all your guests' names on it that is perfectly sized to print onto these sheets. As an added positive, there are loads of cards in this pack, so unless you're having a really huge event, you should have some spare to allow for a trial run or last minute additions. Highly recommend for anyone organising a wedding or other big event that needs name cards and who wants to save money without sacrificing quality.

There aren't too many competing products for A4 based table name cards (tent cards). They are well perforated, so come apart easily. However, since I purchased my previous batch in 2008, the product seems to have changed slightly. It is no longer as bright white as it was - not a big issue. But more irritating is the fact that the stock is no longer precisely A4. The card base is 29.9cm long, so you need to adjust for this 2mm difference when registering the positioning of the individual print items.

Good quality card and easy to use.

Does the job?

The size is not exactly A4, so the pages need trimming (about 1/16inch) to fit in my feeder tray. Otherwise OK

Received the goods promptly. Great value for money and far, far cheaper than Staples and unbelievably cheaper than wedding web sites and high-priced shops like Confetti, which are a real rip-off. Perfect for what we wanted. Really easy to use. Perfect first time. Print outs were fast, good quality and after punching a couple of holes and adding a bit of ribbon, the results were as good or better appearance and quality than wedding shops could provide. Place cards are for a two hour meal, not for life.

I bought these for some table place names, and I was a little sceptical. However, I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the cards. The cards come 6 to a sheet, and I was bothered about them being perforated, as I didn't want the edges to look poor. However, I needn't have worried, as the 'micro perforation' system they use works really well, making them cards easy to separate, with no signs of any perforation visible on the edge of the cards after doing so. They don't particularly feel like the stated 200gsm, but they're not flimsy. However, what does let the product down is the software. It looks & feels absolutely ancient, like a Win95 program, and I had problems running it on my Windows 10 PC. According the the 'help file', the software is compatible with Microsoft Windows 95, 98, ME, 2000, & XP - the latest of which (XP) had its final release in 2008, and Win95 was some 29 years ago. I did eventually manage to get it working, even though it took me some time and did randomly crash, and I was pleased with the overall result, but the software made it such hard work.

Good quality cards, that fold perfectly. I downloaded the template from the DECAdry website, which I did not find very user friendly. You have to select the template for business cards, which is not immediately obvious. If you want to simply add a name, then it's easy. If you want to design something more complicated like I did with a coloured border and background, then it's difficult to get it just right. I made numerous attempts before I could print it perfectly and my design on the template had to go outside of the given card lines. If you have a little patience you can end up with a great result!
