Cards on Boards

I am strangely excited about escort cards. It seems like it could be an inexpensive way to add a little fun and personalized style to your wedding. I have already decided that I am doing something with ferns, and I would show you a great example but InStyle Weddings has a stinky website and none of the photos from the current issue are in there.

In the meantime, if my wedding had gone shabby chic as I had originally planned, I would be all over these cards on boards:

Mrs. Strawberry

The Knot

The Knot

Martha (DIY instructions included)

There is actually one more pretty red and white one in in a gorgeous frame in that same issue of InStyle Weddings (pg 240), so if you own a copy, please take a look :)

And Design Sponge wants to help you make these fun boards. Here is a link on how to make these cutie buttons!


The nice thing about these boards is that if you don't have a ton of help with decor on the day of your wedding, you can make these in advance and send it and an easel along with a loving friend to set it up.

Is anyone doing anything particularly fun and creative with their escort cards? Is anyone forgoing them altogether?
