Personalised Wedding Favours

Now you are well on the way to setting up your ‘Perfect Wedding’ the flowers, car, venue, photographer etc are all booked and deposits paid, but now you are caught up on the smallest element of all – the wedding favours.

The trouble is that presenting a personalised favour can be extremely expensive, particularly if you go down the route of getting some thing small laser engraved with the guest’s name on. Yes you can pick the specific item up cheaply, but then you really want to personalise it so how about getting it etched with the wedding day and individual names on, shouldn’t be too much, but do not forget you have over 60 guests at the wedding breakfast, and what about the evening guests and children, you need to give them all a wedding favour.

Then think about what happens to that favour once the wedding is over and the guest takes it home with them, or not. It might get put in a cupboard away from sight, and then gets left, which means you’ve spent all that time and money for something that gets hidden away, or left at your party.
