Ok, so everyone knows about the traditional bubbles, disposable cameras and candy as wedding favors, can we say boring? Think outside the box and give your guests something to remember your special day by! Doing searches on the web on sites such as Favoraffair.com and Elegantfavorideas.com are a great starting point. We always tell our brides three points when selecting favors:
1: Reflect you and your fiance's relationship (your first date was apple picking - use potted apple cuttings in ornate and customized pots)
2: It is not something that only makes sense in pairs; candle and shot glasses have come and gone and unless you have a collection started, they look a little unfinished sitting on a shelf alone, if they make it that far...
3: You cannot please everyone. Don't stress out wondering if everyone is going to love it. Even if you spent $490 a favor on a diamond shaving encrusted picture frame - there will be a handful of people who find it useless or will give it away.
You cannot make everyone happy but be sure to be proud of your choice!
In Lieu of donations are another great, simple way to give honor and meaning to your wedding while having your guests be part of a great cause. Then each year you can continue donating and send cards to your guests annually thanking them for being part of your life and up-to-date status on the donations.
When your wedding has come and gone, your guests will be left with one thing and one thing alone, a memory. Help them to create the best one for years to come!
