There were, indeed, LOTS of Lovely Details at the “Lovely Details Wedding Showcase” that I attended earlier this month! I always try to soak in hot new ideas, especially because I don’t exactly have a solid idea what I’m exactly going to do when it comes to reception decor. One AWESOME idea that I did walk away with, courtesy of my florist Huckleberry Karen, and the lovely Lisa of Belissima Vita Weddings, was this great idea for escort cards, which I’m totally stealing!

Karen and Lisa tied simple place cards to wine glasses, which double as escort cards, AND will help your guests keep their germs to themselves when they set their glasses down. The best part about this idea is that your venue/caterer is probably providing wine glasses for the evening anyway, which means all you need is paper and ribbon to complete this project! Being the obsessive DIY’er that I am, I’m trying to come up with other cute ways to mark wine glasses as escort cards.You could find some pretty Mother of Pearl buttons, and loop wire or ribbon in the holes, and mark each guest’s name with a permanent pen/paint pen:

Or, you could DIY your own wine charms and attach each guest’s name and table number to the charms…each table could be represented by a color…directions at notmartha.com

The best part about these “escort cards” is that they wont fly away in the wind if you’re having an outdoor wedding! I can’t wait to get started on a similar project!
