It might look pretty but there are a few reasons why you never want to do this.
#1.....FLUFF....Think about it. All materials leave dust/lint particles behind, and as you shove the napkin in the glasses you are also shoving dust and lint into the glasses with your napkins. When the napkins are pulled out by your guests...guess what's left behind??? You got it, lint. Your guests are drinking lint with their water...Yuck!
#2....CLEANLINESS....Have you stopped to consider how much those pretty napkins have to be handled before being put into the glass? Not only the napkins get man-handled, but so do the glasses. The napkins have to be placed in just perfectly to acheive the proper look, sometimes that means hands get in the glasses, or on the rims. Another Yuck!
#3....PERFECTION....Unless you have a wedding venue that is very, very particular andvery detailed oriented, there is an excellent chance that your napkins will NOT all look pretty, nor will they all be uniform. Venue staff have big jobs, and it is very time consuming to prettily fold napkins into perfection. More often than not, we see napkins just stuffed in the glasses. NOT visually appealing, and not attractive for your guests.
Consider some of the following options for your napkins.....
The simple fold. NOT put on plates (no lint on dishes) Clean and sanitary!
The knot. Elegantly set above the place setting.
Take some time, do some research, there are tons of beautiful ideas that will add punch to your table while providing a clean and sanitary environment for your guests.
