A wedding is in your future, that's wonderful! So now you have a ton of wedding plans to make and you don't have a huge budget. What are some fun things that you can do as a couple that won't cost too much? You can make your wedding favors! Wedding favors are the sweet little presents that you give to your wedding guests. Wedding favors also serve as table decorations during the reception or dinner. They can be as creative as your wedding theme and should reflect a personal touch for your guests. Fortunately, there are some wonderfully cheap wedding favors you can make.
Mini Frames - At most wedding receptions, it's customary to place small placards on tables to help the wedding party and guests find their appropriate seats after the ceremony. If you would like to combine this tradition with a special wedding favor, you can purchase inexpensive mini frames in various shapes, colors and finishes to place small pictures of the bride and groom inside, along with an initial or number attached to the top or back. Guests can then take them home to enjoy a mini portrait of the happy couple to enjoy for years to come.
Candy Tins - Found in most craft stores are neat little tins with lids that can hold a small amount of candy or mints. You can select a color or shape that goes along with your wedding theme and fill them weeks ahead of time - ready for your big day. Then just place on tables at each place setting or in baskets at the entrance to your reception or wedding hall.
Wedding CD's If you are looking for a modern, yet still inexpensive wedding favor that you can make ahead of time, consider creating a play list of your favorite romantic songs and burn them onto a stack of recordable cd's. Place them into white envelopes, stick a label on them with your wedding announcement and slip them onto the place settings at the reception hall. .
Sachets If you would like to create a sweet smell for the reception hall, you can fill organza bags with a variety of perfumed items, like potpourri, scented gel beads or dried flower petals. Guests can take them home and hang them from their car rear view mirrors or place them in drawers to scent their clothes at home. Every time they smell them, they will remember your wedding day.
Photo Magnets What a practical way for your guests to remember your wedding day by giving them little photo magnets to take home with them. Pictures can either be printed up or placed into small magnetic frames or they can be printed cheaply by a photo service. Be sure to add your names and the date of your wedding so guests can remember your anniversary date later.
With a little creativity, you can make sure your wedding favors are as special as your love for each other, even if you are on a budget. - 15784
