Wedding Favors

by admin on July 3, 2009

If you are planning your wedding in the near future, don’t forget to start organizing your wedding favors as soon as possible. Luckily, you will almost be spoilt for choice so you won’t have to worry too much about having a problem deciding what to go for. This should make things much easier for you and will be one less thing to worry about before the wedding day arrives.

If all other options fail you can always choose the easy wedding favor of flowers which can also decorate the reception at the same time. Fortunately, as far as the bride and groom are concerned, apart from choosing which flowers to have, there is little for them to do.

Red roses always look attractive and of course they don’t have to be wrapped like many other flowers. It is a simple matter of asking one of your family to place the roses just before everyone is seated at the wedding reception table.

If flowers do not appeal to you then why not give candy a try as an easy wedding favor because it is always popular even if not as original as you would like it to be. However, there is an even easier way to give candy and also help you to save money on centerpieces. This can be accomplished by using large bowls filled with different types of candy as the centerpieces on each table.

All you need to do after this is arrange for each wedding guest to have a small box where they can place their candy. Your guests will fill up the presentation containers with the candy in the centerpieces making this an extremely convenient gift which does not involve any wrapping.

Although candy is popular, you may wish to give your guests a picture frame which is longer lasting and more useful. For many people that give picture frames as wedding favors, they spend too much effort wrapping them in presentation paper. For this to work you need to make things simple so why not save having to wrap the gifts by using them as placeholders; and who would anyone blame you?

An easy wedding favor that might appeal is to have the photographer take a digital picture of each guest and then present it to them at the wedding reception as they arrive. All the photographer needs to do is to have a printer with him so he can give each guest their photo before they leave later in the day. Everyone will appreciate this wedding favor as it is a reminder they can cherish for many years. Many photographers will also have a projector so could arrange a looping slide show of all the photos he had taken of the guests.

Also, the places where favors or gifts can be bought is not limited to the “wedding favor store.” Most stores sell a variety of products and will not mark items specifically as “wedding favors.” Bridesmaid Dresses There may be estimates of the average amount that a bride spends per party Bridesmaid Dresses/wedding, but such “averages” fail to take into account the number of people to whom she is giving a gift – which can vary from one to five to eight, and on up. Searching through publications geared to gift markets may be one way to find information on such gifts.

We are having out of town bags and they are a hefty part of our budget. This was important to me to do though, because we are having a destination wedding on a 3 day weekend in Vegas (Vetran’s Day happens to be the Friday before our wedding). In hopes of helping to cut wedding favors I will be doing these babies. I figured favors would be inconvient because then people would need to carry them around when they’re out and about on the strip or they would need to be edible. So I decided to go with welcome bags that are based on us as a couple. I am really excited about these babies. They are one of my favorite parts of the wedding. I know it will be a huge task to put 40+ of these babies together the week before the wedding, but it will be done. We will be handing ours out at the meet and greet because guests are staying as so many different hoteks and most hotels charge $5 fee to deliver them.

Honestly, most are…you can only use so many little glass candle votives, right? And most favors are these cha-chee things that end up being either left at the reception or tossed. I find the ones that can be used up such as custom candies, even matchbook covers are best…altho the absolute best favor I ever received was a packet of Mulled Cider mix….all I had to do was add the cider and orange slices…..great idea and it was used! The playing cards is a great idea, BTW………my hubby plays poker with his buds, you see lol…..

Wedding favors can be an important part of each wedding. Whether it’s a small photo frame/placecard holder or even a candle, wedding favors help your guests remember your special day for the rest of their lives.

wow, you just gave? me the best idea ever.

It is rather unusual for this type of request if you are a non immediate family member as you stated. However, since you agreed to do this, you are not required to bring a gift. If you are uncomfortable with this then something simple will be fine. A gift certificate to Bed, Bath and Beyond for under/at $50 will suffice.
I have to admit this rather surprised me as it is in very poor taste on the bride and groom's part to ask anyone to help them pay for wedding favors. This is something that they are to do for their guests and if they cannot afford it, it is really not a requirement. Very strange!
