Now that you have had your first kiss as Mr. and Mrs., it is time to party. Seating your guests with style is an opportunity to continue your wedding theme and add an element of surprise to the reception. More importantly, escort cards keep the arrival of guests, orderly. Without a system, chaos ensues, not to mention all of the unique ways your guests will save their own place! If you are having more than one table, an escort card is a necessity. Today I share my favorite finds with you.

This ornate mirror, featuring calligraphy, takes the place of traditional escort cards. I can imagine this chest in the grand ballroom of a luxury hotel.

I love working with feathers (but have a bird phobia). They add a whimsical and sometimes formal feel to anything. Fun for a Gatsby theme.

Bright as a sunset, this decadent display just says happily married all over it.

An outdoor venue can be tricky for many reasons, with wind being difficult to predict. So a hanging escort card display is a wonderful idea.

These beautiful but beachy cards are perfect for a seaside soiree. Done in the color palette of the wedding, they just couldn't be more perfect.

How fun for an outdoor venue. This time, you won't mind a little wind. Can be made with pretty printed fine paper or fabric.

Inspired by the groom's personal collection, the escort cards were shaped like miniature clocks and displayed on the existing credenza, styled with candlelight at the Montage Hotel.

In shades of amber and lime, this escort card display makes a colorful statement.

What a stunning display! Perfect for a pink palette but would be terrific in any color scheme.

The pop art “escort card” wall was an extension of the couple’s Save-the-Date, which was a mini-comic book narrating the couple’s love story.

Bryant Park wedding guests were treated like true New Yorkers with personalized taxi cab escort cards. These are ever so much fun and colorful, too.

Perfect for a garden party! Easy to do if you start collecting now! These brooches were big in the 60's.
