MAKE THE WEDDING
FAVOR THE EVERLASTING REMINDER OF YOUR WEDDING
by Helen Reid.
Wedding
favors are the unacknowledged little treats, which drag a number of unwilling
parties to ceremonies they absolutely detest. A number of little kids, who are
too young to dab their eyes when the vows are taken; you see them fidgeting on
their mums laps, or they escape and run around during the process, are
enthusiastic about weddings primarily due to the favors. This goes for most
granddads and grandmothers. They really have seen a few of these things.
Given
the expectations, wedding favors are becoming must for every ceremony. Too many
hearts stand a chance crushed if your wedding doesn’t end with one. So be
rigorous while choosing your favors in order to make sure that they are just
right. Here are a few pointers for you to consider.
1.
Innovation – remember your wedding will probably turn up only once…or well
twice, in your entire life time (we really hope it is just the one) so you
wouldn’t want your guests to go back home with a gift which they will stack up
with 20 others just like it somewhere on the floor of their closet. Your favors
have to be unique and a lasting reminder of your special day. Keep it connected
to the theme of your wedding party or make it personal and give a compilation
of your favorite songs. A number of people also gift their guests napkins
embroidered with the bride and groom’s names. So take your pick.
2.
Expenses – weddings are expensive, so you wouldn’t want to add an extra expense
in the form of wedding favors. Choose gifts, which you can make yourself to
save money. A candle for instance is an easy and inexpensive gift, which can be
made right at your home, personalize it with ribbons and sparkles to give it a
unique look and see how all appreciates it.
3.
Planning –in the planning of your wedding make this one of your priorities.
Like everything else in your wedding, favors need to be planned for before
making purchases. Take your spouse's opinion, regarding the gift you have
chosen. Remember it’s their special day too, and in case you end up gifting
people something he/she doesn’t like it might become a sore subject in the
years to come. Consult your friends most of them, would love to help you out
with the wedding. Don’t' make the mistake of leaving your favours till the last
moment. Do it now rather than later. Keep them packed and store them in a safe
place to avoid any breakage or spoiling.
Your
wedding is a special day for you, so make sure your wedding favor reflect that.
Remember to keep it simple, stylish and unique and ensure that they are packed
beautifully. A great wedding favor will make your wedding a memorable affair
for all, but especially for those little guys and the oldies who come to
weddings, they don't really come just for the favors, remember they love you
and each time they see your favour, it will be a reminder of your wonderful
occasion.
