Weddings offer a fabulous opportunity to express love and appreciation. Of course the primary focus in on the bride and groom, however, they too have a great opportunity to demonstrate their generosity by giving wedding gifts or favors to those who have helped and encouraged them.
The giving of wedding favors is too often overlooked until all the money is gone. As a result, the bride and groom run the risk of leaving their attendants feeling unappreciated. Give leftovers or tokens may not be the right choice.
To avoid embarrassment, a different approach should be taken. First, consider all the possibilities. With a little creativity, you can make your wedding favors a positive declaration of your appreciation, and still not spend an “arm and a leg”.
Like most things in life, planning really helps. Since you know that you are going to have a certain number of attendants in your wedding party usually months in advance; think about your wedding favors in advance too. Ask yourself, what wedding favors would really be appreciated, create a positive memory, or make your attendants really feel appreciated. Plan ahead.
How much you spend is up to you and your pocketbook. If you open up your pocketbook after you have just emptied it, there is nothing left. On the other hand, if you diligently budget your funds and set aside specific funds for your wedding favors; the money will be there.
