Tips on Favours

So you can’t decide on your wedding favours. Here are a few of my ideas:

• Communicate together to find an item that reflects the personality that you both share. Example, if you are both exercise fanatics then try a miniature dumbbell key rings or a miniature version of your favourite sports shake to be given to guest.
• If the wedding is at a beach try a basket of flip-flops.  Your guest will love these because they will not have to worry about sand in their shoes.
• Incorporate your cultural background in the vision of your wedding favours. For example, for an Asian wedding – use red or orange fans, fortune cookies ,rice cakes, coins, etc .
