I am confused. Can I do couple setting cards, or should they be for each guest attending?

Place Cards (or escort cards) is a fantastic way of doing a couple of things: the first and most important is giving you an accurate count of guests that will be attending your reception. Yes, everyone should have their own card, including children. It’s always a good idea to have everyone’s name so that you may include them as you are designating seating. The other wonderful thing about place cards is that they serve as perfect cues to the servers if you plan to offer your guests entree choices on your response cards (i.e fish, chicken or vegetarian selection). This will give your catering staff the opportunity to see the entree selection (i.e. special meal, children’s meal requirements etc.) as opposed to asking your guests when it comes time to serve.

They strive to create impact that sets the tone for an entire evening with a single glance. New York-based flower and event designer Preston Bailey has seen his clientele grow continually more sophisticated over the years. He constantly pushes the envelope creating new elements to excite. “What I do is space transformation. When you walk into a reception, I want you to feel as if you have entered a different time and place.”
