2. Often called table assignment cards. Use the term you like!

3. For couples (whether married or not), one escort card is appropriate since they’re sitting at the same table.

4. Arrange the cards alphabetically by last name. Position them near the entrance to the cocktail hour venue (but not right next to the door). A good place is in the center of the room, where guests can approach from all sides.

5. Use appropriate titles such as “Mr. James Miller” or “Dr. Linda Ross” at formal weddings; for casual weddings, go with first and last names only (”James Miller”).

6. When ordering escort cards, be sure to indicate the style you’ll need. Will the cards need to stand on their own (tent style) or will they be placed in some type of holder (in which case, you may just need a single panel card).

The one below is my favorite. It reminds me of something my mother would do.
Enjoy!

The incredibly creative and talented Traci Kaye from Four Branches will custom design a canopy or chuppah just for you! Here’s the best part - you can send her heirloom pieces from your grandmother’s wedding dress, your father’s old cuff links, your mom’s veil, anything! Just think of the possibilities.

Amazing!

Numbered Vases…I don’t have a link for this one because I can’t remember where I got the photo, but these are fantastic and would be very easy to make. Just get some cool rubber stamps from your local craft store. Make sure you use Staz-On ink (this type of ink is made specifically for glass and other non-porous surfaces). Remember, when you stamp on glass, the stamp will want to slide, so be careful!

Vows Sign. Now I don’t have a link for this one either, but I think this would be super easy to make, especially since you can buy the wood letters from the big box craft stores such as Michaels, AC Moore and  Hobby Lobby. This would also be super cute with the bride and groom’s initials and wedding date

Whooda Thunk? Make your own wedding cake? Well it’s totally possible! According to Martha Stewart, it requires neither culinary talents nor design skills! Just order a buttercream cake from a local bakery and a pack of chocolate panels from chocolatier Christopher Norman or make the panels yourself!. Adhere panels of varying heights onto the tiers, and fill the ledges with golden raspberries, strawberries, blueberries or another fruit.
You can do this!
