How to Get Unique Wedding Favors That Won’t Break the Bank

Posted on April 17th, 2012 by Elsa in Wedding Favors

Unique Calla Lily Candle The date is set, the planning is underway, but now it is time to find those unique wedding favors for your guests. The tradition of handing out wedding favors is one that shows appreciation for not only your guests coming to the wedding, but coming to support you and your spouse uniting with a set of vows with them as the witness. Finding unique wedding favors that show your appreciation and are still considered cheap wedding favors isn’t always easy, but the good news is, it’s not impossible either.

Get an Accurate Guest Count

There is nothing more embarrassing than finding the perfect cheap wedding favors and finding out you fall short at the reception. Make sure to get an accurate guest count for your wedding and then bump it by at least twenty just to be safe. Sometimes, unfortunately, wedding guests do not always RSVP, which means you will need to create a buffer for those that show up unannounced. More »
