A vanity plate assembly includes a plate that has indicia printed thereon. A strip is positionable against the plate. A pair of brackets is provided and each of the brackets releasably engages the strip. A pair of fasteners is each extendable through the plate, the strip and the brackets for coupling the plate, the strip and the brackets together. A pair of couplers is provided and each of the couplers releasably engages a respective one of the brackets. Each of the couplers releasably engages a respective one of a pair of chain supports on a hitch receiver of a vehicle. In this way the plate is suspended beneath the hitch receiver without interfering with using the hitch receiver.
