Weddings can be very costly, but they do not have to be. There are many different ways to save money on a modern wedding. Cutting corners and saving money does not mean, by any stretch of the imagination, that the finished product will appear "cheap." One of the things you can do is to save on wedding favors by using items like wholesale necklaces and some of your creative mind. Put the two together and not only will you have great wedding favors, you'll have a few extra dollars left over when the event is finished.
Candy Dish
One of the more popular things you will see at weddings these days is the candy buffet. An entire table is set up holding various candies that guests can visit on their own. A nice favor is a simple plastic dish that has been brought to life with the purchase of some wholesale necklaces. The necklaces are used to adorn the dishes. Guests can load up their custom-made dish and take some of the wedding goodies home with them.
Music
A very easy and inexpensive wedding favor is to make a CD of themed wedding music and include an insert explaining each of the songs and why they made the CD. Each guest can take one of these home. The cover can be decorated with pieces of the wholesale necklaces that you have acquired. This type of favor will save you a ton of money plus, it comes from the heart since it is homemade.
Pictures
Invest in some inexpensive picture frames. Place a picture of the bride and groom in the frame and put one at each place setting at every table. You can even add a card behind the photo with details about the wedding. It's a very thoughtful favor that, once again, can save you money and will also be remembered for years to come. The frame could be decorated or, in the essence of saving time, can be left as is. You may be able to find photo frame favors for less than a dollar each.
Flowers/Centerpiece
Creating a nice centerpiece is easier than you might think. You can always use an inexpensive miniature pot also. A simple homemade centerpiece can be and decorated with strings of wholesale necklaces that will cut the cost of this favor dramatically. Choose flowers that are in season. Doing so will cost less and the flowers will look better. The flowers can be part of the centerpieces which guests can then take with them.
Bookmarks
The idea behind the wedding favor is not just to save money but to make it something practical, something that people can use once the wedding is over. A specially designed bookmark is just that kind of favor. The bookmark can have a picture of the bride and groom and contain all of the details about the wedding. It's a great keepsake and very inexpensive.
With a little thinking and a little handy work you can have amazing wedding favors without breaking the bank!
