For a Foreign-style Wedding, Try "Escort Cards" ♡

In Japanese weddings, guests look at the seating chart distributed at the reception to find their seats.

However, overseas, they hand out "escort cards" with table numbers written on them, and guests sit at their chosen seats at the table indicated on their escort card ♩

This may be an unfamiliar item in Japan, as it is common to place individual gifts at each seat, but

recently, many Japanese brides seem to be preparing escort cards as part of the performance and hospitality, in conjunction with seating charts and place cards ＊

What to Add to Escort Cards ③ Balloons

An idea is to attach the escort card to the end of a balloon’s string ♡ This can also serve as decoration for the welcome space ♩

Guests can carry the balloons to their tables and tie them to their gift bags, adding a festive atmosphere to the reception venue, yielding two benefits in one ♡

What to Add to Escort Cards ④ Animal Figures

Attaching escort cards to figurines is adorable ♡ Adding name tags to animal figures is a popular idea overseas as well ♩

Choosing animals that match each guest's personality or image can be a fun touch ＊

What to Add to Escort Cards ⑤ Medals

An idea for creating cool medal-shaped escort cards! They have a more adult vibe compared to rosettes ＊

If you attach a pin to the back, all guests can wear them as badges ♩

What to Add to Escort Cards ⑥ Letters

Attaching heartfelt "letters" to escort cards is also a wonderful idea.

Letters to guests are typically written on the back of place cards. Therefore, having a letter attached to the escort card received before sitting down is a surprise for guests ♡

Let's Attach a Welcome Petit Gift to the Escort Cards ♡

Escort cards serve their purpose even as standalone cards, but

adding an exciting gift to the cards makes them even cuter and enhances the element of surprise ＊

Preparing escort cards as a welcome gift, just like offering welcome food or drinks, is a very fun idea ♡

Think of performances that will delight the guests ♡
