Your wedding favors should never look cheap or cheesy. After all, these keepsakes thank guests for sharing your day and become lasting treasures when the party is over.
Select inexpensive wedding favors carefully so they look attractive without going over your budget. Wedding planning can get pricey and setting a budget is imperative to have a successful day. Create a realistic wedding budget before you start shopping so you have a guideline when you begin. Remember, party favors are better than having no tokens of appreciation because you budgeted improperly - or not at all.
Have a wedding budget that is accessible and simple for everyone. If you work well with a notebook and pen, keep your financial plan in a ledger. For tech savvy couples, a computer budget may be a better option. Either way, have a plan and stick to it because it is the backbone of your big day. Gage your financial progress as you go by updating your budget to avoid future financial crisis.
Guests look forward to receiving favors at your wedding reception. Themed wedding favors are a thoughtful way to thank your guests. Make sure they are both cost-effective and attractive.
Consider affordable, plantable gifts for your guests. For a fair price, plantable wedding favors are an impressive gift that keeps giving because your guest can plant them. In romantic shapes such as hearts and flowers, plantable ones will remind everyone of your special day when the flowers grow.
Use place card holders that double as favors so you don’t have to pay for two separate items. An ideal option is a place in my heart bud vase and place card holder with a single silk blossom. This elegant favor guides guests to their seats and goes home after the reception to be displayed in a place of honor.
Use outstanding presentation to make them look more exciting. Buy candies or Jordan almonds in bulk to put in attractive packaging and create your own favors. Your guests will love to get goodies in mini calla lily pails, enchanted carriage favor boxes or a getaway car favor box with expandable convertible top and tin cans.
Add pizzazz to inexpensive wedding favors with sparkles, personalized ribbons and tulle in a rainbow of colors and styles. Personalized ribbon is a cheap way to customize them.
