This way please...


An escort card is a nice way of substituting the usual 'place card with seating plan' combination. The escort cards are grouped in display on a table (or not! be creative) where guests are invited to find their name and take it to the table number they find also on the card. They can then sit wherever they like. The escort card table can be done in so many ways. Whilst there are so many great ideas for alternatives, the traditional can be made creative by being just as innovative with the actual concept.
Inspired Idea No.1
A wooden tray is lined with foliage and the cards are placed on top in rows.


Inspired Idea No.2
Cards are arranged in a shallow tray of sand adorned with sprigs of exotic flowers.

Inspired Idea No.3
An array of different silver trays and dishes hold the cards on a gorgeous table for a vintage feel.



Inspired Idea No.4
Rows of string create a make shift clothesline for cards to be pegged to. Great for an outdoor wedding.


Inspired Idea No.5
Bare branches are grouped together in a container and hung with ribboned cards.



Inspired Idea No.6
Apples sit in rows on a table, their stems tagged with cards.
