Cupcake Table - Is it necessary for lables?

We are doing cupcakes rather than a cake. Below is my inspiration pic. FSIL is making our cupcakes and a small cake for FH and I to cut.

We're going to have 2 cupcake flavors:

Brown butter pumpkin cupcake with cinnamon cream cheese frosting

Better than sex chocolate cupcakes with a nutella buttercream

So here's my question - is it necessary to have something on the table identifying the flavors? I'm not sure if someone will be serving the cupcakes to our guests or if they'll just be free to go up and get one when they want it. The one wedding I went to that had cupcakes, we just helped ourselves. Our venue cost includes cake cutting so I assume that means they'd serve them for us if we want since they'd be serving cake if there was one to cut. I imagine if someone is serving them, they'd know what the flavors are and therefore could let guests know? Do guests even usually get to choose what flavor cake they get?? I never eat cake at weddings so I have no idea!

    I made the cupcakes and labels for the FSIL's wedding this summer. I think labels look good in the pictures and if the guests serve themselves it is handy. I know a couple people who can't eat chocolate because of migraine issues - so it may be handy for them.

    I just made the labels on photoshop (you could even use word.)

    Oooh I forgot I was also thinking of using the Tolsby frames from Ikea for like just the run down of my flavors instead.

    So forgot when I was at work earlier.

    The pic isnt mine but i found one to kinda show you what it would look like. you would only need like 1 or 2 depending on how big the table is, like 1 at each side type thing
