Remember high school when issuing an invitation meant calling your best friend and letting her know that your parents were out of town? Suddenly, your house was full of 100 of your closest friends.

Ordering wedding invitations can be a little more complicated than that, so I recently sat down with the lovely ladies of Three Graces Design in Chicago to get some tips for how to go about the process.

Because I learned so much, and because it's summer, I've got a special treat for you: two coupons each good for one FREE box of Skinny Cow Frozen Snacks, every summer bride's best friend.

The first one goes to the first registered commenter to correctly define the term "Escort Card." (hint, read the article).

The second one goes to the commenter who gives the funniest wrong definition of the term.

Judging for the second one is completely at my whim, and ends around 4 CST today, when I have to go home for the long weekend.

Good luck!

  • "An escort card is the card you pick up at the entrance with your name and table number."

  • An escort card is something found at your bachlorette party so the girls know which sexy man will be theirs for the evening ;)

  • Brides, worried about your fiance's frat-boy friends? Your younger sister's affinity for rum punch? The solution: Escort cards. This buddy-system assigns each member at your reception a partner who's responsible for kindly escorting drunken members, at-risk of dance injury and drink spills, to a safe and suitable corner of your reception -- or in more dire cases, directly to their hotel room. =)

  • PattyJ has the correct answer, and I hearby award AngelofArdor the funniest answer, and... I actually have a third that I was going to try and steal for myself, but instead, Skippy, it's all yours!
    Enjoy.
