If you are trying to cut costs at your wedding, you need to find items that can do double-duty. For example, instead of an expensive floral centerpiece on each table at the reception, you can have a basket of fresh fruit. The fruit makes a colorful centerpiece, while also offering your guests something to snack on.
This also goes for wedding favors. If you can find unique wedding favors that also do double-duty, you can get more bang for your buck. One of the best ways is with place card holders.
Many place card holders can be take away favors for your guests to bring home. For example, picture frame wedding favors can hold a place card during the reception and then used as a picture frame in your guests’ homes.
One of my favorites is the Calla Lily Photo/Place Card Holder pictured here. It’s great for a spring wedding or any wedding featuring a floral motif. Each elegant frame can hold the place card for seating assignments at your reception.
You can also slip in a photo of bride and groom under the place card. Then when your guests take them home they will have a cute photo of the happy couple in the frame. At under $2 each, these practical wedding favors and a great bargain.
