If you are having your wedding at a tropical beach destination, palm tree wedding favors are an obvious choice. However, you can also use these favors at a local beach wedding to give it a more tropical feel.

Palm Tree Favor BoxAt Truly Wedding Favors, we offer several favors depicting a beach theme and palm trees are prominent. My favorite palm tree favor is not really a favor at all but rather a favor box.

Favors Perfect for a Tropical Beach Wedding

Posted on July 1st, 2008 by Kori Ellis in Wedding Favors

My friend Samantha is getting married in Hawaii at the end of the year. She was asking me about wedding favors. So we were looking at all the beach and tropical favors that would be perfect for her wedding.

Silver Pineapple Placecard HoldersThough her wedding is at the beach, it’s not that casual. Therefore, I thought she should go for something chrome or crystal – still with a beachy theme.

I think she has settled on these silver pineapple placecard holders pictured here. They are made of shiny chrome and quite elegant, but also fun with the pineapple theme!

After guests take these place card favors home, they can use them to hold photos or memos on their desk. Functional, fun and elegant – just what Samantha is looking for!

Ellen DeGeneres Plans Wedding in Palm Springs

Posted on June 26th, 2008 by Kori Ellis in Celebrity Weddings

Talk show host Ellen DeGeneres and her girlfriend Portia de Rossi are planning their wedding in Palm Springs later this year. Since California lifted the ban on same sex weddings last month, the couple has begun planning their wedding and reception.

According to the New York Post the wedding will take place at the Riviera Resort and Spa.

An anonymous source told the paper, “They didn’t sign the contract yet, but they are working out the final details and security.”

Palm Springs is a hot (literally) spot for weddings in recent years. It’s a great place to relax for sun and fun, so it’s no wonder that couples are choosing the city as their wedding destination.

If you were a celebrity couple, what type of wedding favors would you give your guests? I often hear of celebs handing out jewelry and other high priced items to their friends and family who attend their weddings.

Since we all can’t afford such lavish choices, we have to be a little more reasonable. But just because you don’t have a celebrity budget doesn’t mean your wedding favors have to be cheap and tacky.

Here at Truly Wedding favors, you can find a variety of high-quality, unique wedding favors. Whether you planning a wedding at the beach, in the desert, or anywhere in between, you will find what you are need!

Watch the video of “The Ellen Show” where Ellen announces that she and Portia are getting married.

You can also make homemade candy or mini cookies, wrap them in tulle and package them in the little tin pails.

Planning a Las Vegas Wedding

Posted on June 19th, 2008 by Kori Ellis in Wedding Favors

Of course, many people get married in Las Vegas on a whim. However, many others couples plan their Vegas wedding well in advance, just like any other destination wedding.

If you are planning a wedding in Vegas, follow these simple wedding tips.

Martini glass gel candleBe sure to book early. The dates around the holidays book very fast in Las Vegas. Not only will you need to book your reception and ceremony site, but all the hotel rooms and other vendors. Conventions book in Vegas sometimes years in advance, so plan well ahead to get the best choice of vendors and locations possible.

Consider an outdoor wedding, but not in the dead of summer. Vegas is HOT! However, many of their hotels and other venues offer beautiful outdoor wedding facilities. If you plan on a garden or poolside wedding, be sure to keep the weather in mind.

It doesn’t have to be tacky. Just because you are getting married in Vegas, it doesn’t have to be all about glitz and Elvis impersonators. You can plan an elegant traditional wedding at one of the gorgeous hotels or other wedding facilities available in Las Vegas.

At Truly Wedding Favors, we offer a variety of wedding favors that are suitable for a Las Vegas theme.

If you are going with a red and black casino motif, check out the Las Vegas coaster set. For a whimsical choice, the martini glass gel candles are a nice option. And for something a little more traditional, choose from any number of unique wedding favors.
