Unique Custom Escort Cards Inspired by a Deck of Playing Cards
I’ve seen a lot of creative custom escort cards, but this one takes the cake! We designed these beautiful escort cards based on a full deck of playing cards. Each card was hand watercolored and featured something meaningful on each card to the bride and groom. Not only was this functional, it also was a great conversation starter for the guests!
Watercolored Details + Personal Touches
This wasn’t just a pretty setup — it was personal in all the best ways. Each escort card was hand-painted with watercolor illustrations that represented something significant to the couple. Think sentimental, fun, and full of heart. Here’s how the cards broke down:
K & Q – For the bride and groom (duh!)
J – A tribute to their NYC roots.
10 – A sailboat, for their love of being on the water.
9 – Mushroom hunting adventures.
8 – Marine life love, complete with an octopus and shells.
7 – UMD Terrapins, their alma mater.
6 – Chess pieces, because strategic date nights are a thing.
5 – A whole Maryland-themed card.
4 – Washington Lee lacrosse.
3 – Their three favorite bar cats (yes, really).
2 – Oars, another nod to their boating passion.
A – A blue heron, representing the wedding venue's natural charm.
Not only did this custom escort card setup look amazing — it also gave guests a peek into who the couple really are. It’s those little details that turn a wedding into something unforgettable.
