Escort Cards or Seating Chart?????


Which one are you all doing? And how close to the wedding are you going to start working on them?

I want to do a seating chart, FI and I made a chart with our picture as the background in Power point but where would I go to print it out at?

Re: Escort Cards or Seating Chart?????

  • This is my plan as of now. I definitely want a seating chart. I will either have it designed by someone else and have it printed at FedEx/kinkos, office max, etc. Or we will make it ourselves. I don't have a plan of when exactly yet. I'm choosing it because I think it will be a nice keepsake.

  • Thanks :)

    Yes, I think it will be a nice keepsake too. I just need to find the time to start working on ours, LOL!

  • I'm doing escort cards and they will probably be printed a week before the wedding.

  • Im leaning towards doing a seating chart but haven't quite decided who will design/ print it and how it will be displayed.

    Escort cards... That way people can just pick up their cards and go rather than standing in front of a board looking for where they are supposed to sit.  Plus, I just don't see myself keeping a seating chart for very long b/c I don't like clutter. The wedding pictures will be my keepsake lol.

    My designer is helping me with these. I"ll give her my final list with the final guest count is due for all of my vendors (2 weeks beforehand).

    I'm getting them printed here:
    <a href="http://www.wedding-paper-products.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.wedding-paper-products.com/</a>

    .40 each for black ink and .50 for color ink. She creates the design based on your direction and mails you samples on your paper choice. You complete the spreadsheet she sends and she does the cards. Well worth .40 to me since I don't have a creative bone in my body nor patience for DIY.
