Accessorize Your Wedding

So you’ve got the ring, the date (or at least a preferred season) and now it’s time to start planning! But how do you make it your own? What traditions do you keep and which ones just don’t quite fit your big day? Do you stick with the trends you love or become a trendsetter? Every week I’ll share my thoughts on an ACCESSORY for your wedding…food, music, hot trends, honeymoons, do it yourself projects and more. If it will ACCESSORIZE your big day, I’ll write about it!
Placecards. Escort Cards. Table Cards. What are they and how can they be unique? First, what are they? Escort Cards or Table Cards are cards that have the guests name and table number written on them. They are often found in the cocktail hour or in the pre-function space of the reception location just
before guests enter. These can be formal (Mr. and Mrs. Ira Gaar) or more casual (Ira and Brandee Gaar)…the formality of your wedding overall should dictate. From there, you have 2 choices. You can either just assign guests to a table and let them choose where to sit at that table or you can add placecards. Placecards are cards at each individual seat or place at a table which indicate where each guest will sit. Placecards are usually less formal (Ira Gaar or just Ira.
Now let’s discuss how to make them memorable! Instead of using just every day cards, think about attaching a tag to your favors with guests names on them. I love accessories that have “double-duty”! Or incorporate your theme. Having a fall wedding? Try pinning cute tags to miniature gourds or pumpkins. A beach theme? Write guests names on Sanddollars and display them in trays of sand (wanna get even more unique…collect the sand from your favorite beach and create a little sign letting guests know where it’s from!). If you don’t have a theme but still want to do something cute, try small boxes with guests name and table numbers written on the top. Inside, put an edible treat such as Jordan almonds or a single truffle and a note from the newlyweds. And my very favorite idea for a placecard (especially since many of today’s brides grew up in the 80’s and 90’s) is Cootie Catchers!! You can put the guests name and table number on 2 of the outer flaps and your names and wedding date on the other 2. Inside, have fun making up fortunes and dares for guests to enjoy such as “Ask the Bride to Dance” or “You will live happily ever after”. It’s a great ice breaker and guests have a TON of fun playing with them all night! Whatever your fancy…make it your own!
