Bubble Flower Wedding Favor

July 10, 2010 | Author: Leslie, Wedding Favors, favors

I’ve mentioned using bubble favors as a way to involve the guests in the activities during the wedding celebration. I found this video that shows how you can make one on your own, should you prefer to go DIY on it. It’s very easy to do although the price computation at the end may not be applicable to this time anymore.

On Wedding Favors

May 26, 2010 | Author: Sonja, Wedding Favors, favors

With all the choices of wedding favors online, in stores, or favors you can do yourself, it’s hard to decide which way to go and what to choose.  If you are thinking of going the do-it-yourself route, make sure that you have ample time to do them or the task will only add to the stress of the whole wedding planning and preparation. It is also a good idea if you have the creative flair for it and if you already have or can borrow the necessary tools you need because if you are going to buy everything from scratch, the whole project will cost you a lot of money as well.

Buying online is a great alternative because you can find a lot of cheap but beautiful wedding favors. If you choose to buy online, make sure you allow enough time for the favors to be delivered to you. Most brides and grooms order at the last minute because they do not have a finalized guest list yet and while this is a plausible excuse, getting them delivered to you just in time for the wedding is another hassle you can do without. To settle this, order extra favors, more than the number of guests to cover any last minute additions or any mishaps or damage. Having extra favors on hand will cost less than rush ordering for more.

Easy Wedding Candy Favor

May 19, 2010 | Author: Leslie, Wedding Favors

This has to be the easiest assembly of edible wedding favors that I can find. If you have nieces or nephews who want to help out, they can fill the bags with the right number of candies and leave the ribbon tying to you.

You can even arrange these favors decoratively so that they can act as table centerpieces as well. Your guests will take one home and you won’t have much to clean up after the reception.

Summer Wedding Favors

May 11, 2010 | Author: Leslie, Wedding Favors, favors

Here is a great favor idea for summer weddings. These are personalized silk fans from favorideas. I think it is a practical wedding favor since your guests can use it whenever and wherever. Each one is made out of bamboo and silk and are sold for $1.65, with a minimum of 20 orders.

More Wedding Favor Ideas

May 6, 2010 | Author: Leslie, Wedding Favors, favors

Here is another video I found. Hope you all get some inspiration with the ideas presented here. I especially like the little notepad idea that you can decorate with stamps. It can be used later on by your guests in their home or offices.

Affordable and Edible Wedding Favors

May 5, 2010 | Author: Leslie, Cookie, Wedding Favors, favors

I found more affordable and edible wedding favors at fortuneweddingfavors. They’re called  Heart Sprinkles Gourmet Fortune Cookies. These adorable cookies are hand dipped in Belgian chocolate and sprinkled with colorful little hearts. They are only $0.99 each and if your order reaches $250, shipping is free.

Choose from their dips of dark, white, and milk chocolate and caramel. You can also pick a theme for the messages inside, with choices of good fortune messages, romantic messages, wedding messages, and bridal shower messages. They come individually wrapped but you can also add ribbons to each for an extra cost.

More Edible Wedding Favors

April 27, 2010 | Author: Leslie, Wedding Favors, favors

Since they are becoming more and more popular, here are additional edible wedding favors I found online.

These gumball machine dispensers are from myweddingfavors.com. Each costs $2.98. Every time you press down the lever, the slot machine reel spins and a pink bubblegum will fall out to the tray. The jackpot sticker on top is sold separately, at $.35 each for a set of 36.

Another cool wedding favor that can double up for a quick breath freshener while your guests mingle is the “Mint to Be” Bride and Groom Slide Mint Tins with Heart Mints. Regular price is at $2.25 each but if you order 24 or more, it will only be $1.90 each.
