Escort cards

Did you put couples together on one card, or separate cards?

What about people with "and guest" that didn't list a guest name?  (It's only 2 people, and I don't have the time and energy to track them down.)  Did you do separate cards and how did you word it?

TIA.

EDIT: Also, does anyone know how to address judges on these things?  Would it be Judge Joe Brown, or The Honorable Joe Brown, or does it matter?

This is pretty bad, but I can't remember.

I THINK I did one per person.  And I didn't have any 'and guests' that I didn't know.

I'm sorry, Brie.

You're so close! I can't wait to see pictures of everything!!!!

vallyhoo

I did individual cards for everyone. Only one person had an 'and guest' that she did not give me the name of, despite me asking even up until two days before the wedding. So I just made two Jennifer Smiths. (she ended up not even bringing a guest but that's neither here nor there)

Not married yet, but we'll do each person on their own card because they have entree choices that need to be specified on the card.  Otherwise, I'd probably do them together.

If they're separate, I would may put a blank card and they can write it in (or "guest") with the table number next to/under/tucked into the invitee's card.  If they're together, I'd just write "Invitee & guest".  Sucks to be called guest, but the guest can blame their date, not you

We will be doing individual cards, only because we need to indicate dinner choice on them.

vallyhoo

For the judge I might do Hon. Joe Brown? 'The' sounds way too formal to me. Our officiant came and I put Pr. John Smith (instead of Pastor)

I put couples/families with young children on the same card.. well rock because I am using seastones like mag!

Thanks, Alexia!

Did you guys do separate cards for kids, too?

vallyhoo

We only had one kid and I made him his own card. I also still have about 50 cards leftover so I wasn't worried about conserving them

Brie2010

Yeah, we have plenty, vally, so it's not a huge deal.  Thanks!

We did one per guest because of meal choices, and didn't have any "and guests" cards.

I would put "Hon. James Smith" for the judge. We did "Rev. John Doe" for our minister, so it fits with that pattern anyway.

squirrly

I did one card per chair.  High chairs included.  And. . . I didn't do any titles on ours at all, because they didn't fit.  Silly people with long military titles and long last names.  I would have preferred to include titles, but it just didn't work.

I am doing on per couple or family with children. Once they get to the table, they can choose their own seat, so I don't see the need to do individuals.

vindaloo

I think you should write out "The Honorable Joseph Y. Brown", the full formal name.  I'm a lawyer, and we were instructed to always write it out.  But then again, I would write out "The Reverend" and any other titles/honorifics.  (But not stuff like M.D. or Ph.D. or stuff like that.)
