When planning a wedding, there are so many things to consider, both big and small. One small detail you may want to think about is, how you plan to tell your guests where to sit! There are many different ways to go about this but the two major options are Escort Cards or using a Seating Chart.
Escort Card:
These pint-sized pieces of stationery are typically laid out on a table at the entrance of your reception venue - possibly near or on your welcome table. Their purpose is simple: they tell guests which table they’re seated at (example: John Doe - Table 3). They can be as simple as a piece of paper to something a bit more elaborate like something to eat, champagne, or even a little trinket!
Seating Chart:
A seating chart lists your guests' names in alphabetical order with the table number next to the name or grouped together according to table number, for all guests to see. It can create an unexpected and fun entrance into the event space. You can get super creative with what you use, whether you use a mirror, window panes, wood pallets, vases, or even just simple pieces of paper.
