Only One Wedding Frame Was Ours

January 11th, 2009

My fiance almost passed out when he found an bill for 206 wedding frames.  He thought I had lost my mind.  I explained that only one wedding frame was for us, the other 205 were the guests wedding favors.  They were adorable little photo frame favors for our friends and families.  I just thought that photo frame wedding favors was a nice idea.  He agreed and the frames were a go.

No Charge for Making the Wedding Garter

January 10th, 2009

I love to go to weddings and I almost always cry.  What is up with that?  You’d think I would get used to weddings as it seems like we are always being invited to weddings. Part of the reason we are often on the invitation list is because I make an awesome wedding garter for the bride and I don’t charge them for it. So, they invite us to the wedding as a gesture of thanks. It is very kind of the families to do this as I know it’s very expensive to put on a wedding.  Sometimes, I even help out with the wedding favors too.  I feel like I am giving back somehow.  Not sure how I am giving back, but it does feel that way. For my daughter’s prom, I made her prom garter.  The other 2 things she wants I will buy which are prom party favors and a few personalized prom favors for her special friends.  By the way, I don’t cry at proms just for record. LOL

Girls Night Out Party With An Unexpected Event

January 5th, 2009

She knew I was throwing her a girls night out party, so we went shopping for things together.  She picked out her wedding favors and I picked up all of my bachelorette party supplies from girls night out invitations to girl party favors. We were all set.  The night of the party something unexpected happened.  One of the guests was pregnant and the baby decided to join the party. So the second half of the festivities was spent waiting for his arrival.  All in all, it was quite an exciting evening, and mother and son are doing well.

Personalized Favors For Sand And Surf

December 10th, 2008

Wedding favors for the beach party reception was exactly what I was looking for.  Personalized favors that were perfect for an ocean side wedding and reception.  They weren’t too expensive either, they were pretty cheap personalized favors price wise.  Very affordable and very unique personalized wedding favors for each of our guests. I know this is a personalized wedding favor they will want to have as a keepsake of our party on the beach.

Great Choice In Gifts Favors

December 6th, 2008

She really knows how to throw a reception.  Everything was the picture of perfection, and the gifts favors she had for everyone was really exceptional.  These were wedding favors of a very special nature.  She gave out wedding keepsake gifts that would hold the memories of sharing her wedding and reception with them.  This is a keepsake gift I won’t forget about.  I think keepsake gifts are the best favors any bride could give to her guests.  It’s a very thoughtful idea.

The Photo Coaster Idea Was A Big Success

December 4th, 2008

My guests really liked the photo coasters I picked out for them.  One lady told me she’s never received such a beautiful wedding favors gift as the memories photo coaster set I gave out.  Now I’m glad I decided to go with the photo coaster idea my friend suggested.  At first I didn’t think a photo coaster favor was such a good idea, but it turns out that it was.

Her Favor Boxes Were Almost As Nice As Her Wedding Favors

December 4th, 2008

The favor boxes were so gorgeous they could almost have been the wedding favors.  The wedding favor boxes were so delicate looking with a beautiful little bow for accent.  I’ve received favors in pretty party favor boxes but these favors boxes were definitely something exceptional.

What do You Think About a Wedding Bell Cake?

December 3rd, 2008

It was Saturday morning and my fiance asked me, “What do you think about a wedding bell shaped cake?”  I answered honestly by saying that I didn’t mind having wedding bells on the cake, but I don’t think the shape should be a wedding bell.  I am hoping we can compromise. I explained that I plan on using wedding bell favors. Giving our guests a wedding bell favor, decorating with wedding bells and having the cake in same shape might be over doing it (not really I just don’t want it in a bell shape), so we decided to decorate the cake with bells (not bake in the shape) as well as the reception hall, and give the guests the wedding favors in same shape. You guessed it….wedding bells. We are both very happy with the results!

I Had To Decide On Which Baby Shower Gifts To Get

December 3rd, 2008

I went shopping online and could not decide on which baby shower gifts to get. I had the same problem when I was looking for wedding favors. I wanted my gifts for a baby shower to be unique. My first purchase was personalized baby shower gifts. Then I saw these unique baby shower gifts. I had to stop at this point because everything was so adorable and I would of ended up purchasing everything.
