The
question most brides-to-be
or couples getting married
have is How do
I make wedding favors
for cheap? Before I begin
to answer this
question, I
want to establish one
thing. When using
the word cheap,
it doesnt mean that
youre not
giving it
all you have.
Youve already
spent a lot
of money to make this day perfect. Therefore,
here are
some cheap or inexpensive ways
to make wedding favors.
Save yourself a little money, you could
even use it
on the honeymoon!!
Here are some really cool
ideas to
save money
and get two things done at once:
Flower Arrangements
Make
a small flower arrangement for
each table setting. This
can serve
as both a favor for
your guest and decorations for the
table. You can normally find little
glass containers at Wal-Mart or the Dollar Store for
pretty cheap. Add some
of your favorite flower(s) or a flower of
your favorite
color. You can even make it seasonal depending on when your wedding is.
Have fun!
Be creative!
Candles
I know, everybody
suggests candles for wedding favors. But find your favorite shape or scent
and give each of your
guests a small candle. This will make it personal for your guest.
It will
tell your
guest you wanted
them there and make them feel special. Use
tulle and/or ribbon to make it more festive!
Small Frames One of my favorites!
You can find small
frames and make them place card holders. Each of your guest will have a frame to take home with them. If you dont want to
assign seating,
put a special message or quote in
each frame. Your guest will have a special
way of
remembering you!
Wine Glass Markers
Make wine glass markers with some wire and beads. Then find a small box and
wrap ribbon
around it. You need one for each guest. It will also be helpful to
keep each others wine glasses separate!
Personalized CD of you and your fiances favorite songs!
You can buy CDs at Office Depot, Staples,
Wal-Mart, etc for cheap. Then decide on 10 or so
songs to put on there. Burn them to the
CD; attach a label or write on each one. You can buy
print-on labels wherever you buy the CDs. Then give each guest one!
Its a cool personal gift.
You can
pull off your big day and save some money. Dont make it look cheap either. Make and create your wedding favors for
cheap!! You can do it!! Remember to have
fun and be creative!!!
