A wedding is the celebration of two lives uniting for eternity. It
has always been this way and will always be this way. Guests are
invited to share joy in the occasion and also to bear witness to the
union. There is something special about standing before those
dear to your heart and making a lifelong commitment for all to hear. This is what
truly unites two people as a married couple.
Wedding favors are used to show that the bride and groom appreciate
each guest. A small token of thanks given for people that have taken
time out of their schedules, given help, gifts, traveled, or done
any number of other things to help ensure that the wedding day was
special for the bride and groom.
Favors are given to each guest attending the reception. They are
generally inexpensive gifts, costing between $10.00 and $20.00 a
piece. More expensive favors are available and there are weddings
where a higher-priced favor may be appropriate. Wedding favors are
available in nearly every category one could imagine, from sterling
picture frames, personalized chocolates, and even bath soaps.
Selecting wedding favors is not difficult. It is not necessary to
purchase these far in advance of the wedding date. Many are readily
available online and at retail outlets that specialize in parties or
wedding accessories. Remember that the last days before the
wedding are hectic, so purchase them a couple months before the
wedding to allow ample time for personalization or special ordering
(wedding planning timeline).
Once they are purchased, the only concern is getting them to the
reception location.
Wedding favors can easily be found online. Consult the wedding
budget to find a
price range to focus on and then think about what makes this union
unique. Think about shared hobbies or themes and look for a favor to
complement those ideas. Place card holders and table decorations can
also be given as favors just be certain to have a place to write the
name and table number of the guest. For those that have the time
wedding favors can easily be made and often provide the most unique
favors of all.
