03 Feb 2011 How to Plan a Budget Wedding

How many wives and husbands-to-be usually fret over their wedding day? A lot, actually, and truth be
told, only a few are actually not worried sick about their wedding, most especially, the grooms, since
they are the ones who will spend a lot of money during the wedding, which is why, they are often
concerned if their money is enough for the measuring spoon favors, the decorations, heart mirror
wedding favors
and so on and so forth.

Granted, a wedding can be quite an expensive event, and it will come with its own share of expenses.
But, there are a lot of ways to make it less heavy on the wallet, and one of those is to make your very
own compact mirror wedding favors.

Remember, wedding favors need not to be expensive to be memorable. In fact, most guests would
attest that favors that were done by the couple themselves or personalized, such as a heart measuring spoon, were more memorable and much appreciated than those bought at a higher price.

The reason for this is the fact that with these favors, the guests will see the hard work that the couple
has poured into their wedding. Plus, people will be able to appreciate things that were personalized
more than those that were premade, or wedding favors that aren’t really connected to the couple.

There are even couples, whom choose to use their love stories as wedding favors. Printing them out
on lovely scented papers, and letting people know much about their love story, such as how and why
the to-be-wed couple came to be, and how they met each other and how they captivated each other’s
precious hearts.

Remember, that no matter what kind of wedding favor you’ll give away to your guests during your
wedding, it isn’t important to spend a lot of money about them and be as grand and as extravagant as you can. Sometimes, simplicity is best for these occasions.

02 Feb 2011 Wedding Favors – Personalizing Them

Nowadays, most people, especially couples, tend to personalize their gifts and things, which is why,
it hasn’t really come to a surprise that in most weddings, couples usually choose to personalize their
wedding favors and tokens, from gift notes, to love notes wedding favors.

After all, weddings are as memorable as any event can be in one’s life, and in countries wherein divorce and annulment is taboo and shunned, weddings are once in a lifetime events whose memories people often cherish and remember fondly for the rest of their lives.

So, choosing to personalize and add your own personal touch to wedding favors doesn’t really come
quite surprising. In fact, a lot of couples have done it over the years and with much success and
reception from their guests, most especially since they appreciate the fact that these favors were either made by the couple themselves or were designed by them.

These personalized favors can range from love notes wedding favors, to statues, carvings, photographs, sayings and so on and so forth. There are also couples, whose favors would be a note summarizing their whole love story, like how they met, why they met, and the reason why they fell in love with each other.

Just remember, that the favors to choose to be personalized should also be fit for the overall theme
of the wedding, because if not, then they tend to be more of a burden than something that the guests
would appreciate. For example, if the wedding is set to happen on fall, then favors whose theme
revolves around fall, and using colors associated with fall, are most appropriate for this type of wedding.

If you happen to be a couple that will be married soon, then personalizing wedding favors is one way
of showing your appreciation for the guests and for making your wedding one of the most memorable experience, not just in your life but for your guest’s life.

surprising that most couples are often hard-pressed on what to choose. But, with a little ingenuity and a
creative mind, the choosing of the right type of wedding favor can be made easier.
