Suggested Layouts for Matching Partner Plates
Plates4Less has introduced “Partner Plates,” a category for plates that integrate the names or initials of two individuals along with a meaningful number.
For those considering such a gift, starting with your partner’s name or initials is a good first step. Here are some layout suggestions that adhere to government-issued plate standards:
- Your initials + 04 + Partner’s Initials
- Your initials + significant number* + Partner’s 3 initials
- First Initial + significant number* + 3-letter Abbreviated Surname
- Marriage Month Letter + Day + 3 initials
- MI55/ MR MR51 + Initials/ 3-letter name/ 3-letter Abbreviated Surname
*Significant numbers might include marriage year, house number, birthdays, or other pertinent figures.
