One of the things we are concerned about is Choosing Wedding Favors, a gesture of appreciation to the guests who are willing to take time to attend and shower their heartfelt blessings to us.

When deciding what kind of weddign favors to present to our valued guests, the following points may be helpful:

Pricing

Wedding planning involves proper financial planning and budgetting. Wedding favors cost can add up to a substantial amount, and needs to be worked out as soon as you start the wedding cost planning.

Choose a wedding favor that suit your budgetting size, always allow cost expansion (additional charges) for wedding favors. Wedding favors cost may be risen by the increase of guests added into your guest list in the last minute.

Theme

Decide on a theme if you are choosing to customise and personalise your wedding favors. Customisation requires a longer lead time, therefore, you may need to work out a theme as soon as you have decided on a venue.

Theme can be worked around with Color Themes (pink, blue, multi-color etc) , Ambience Themes (Romantic, Exotic, Fun, Wacky, Dreamy, Zen etc), Season Themes (Winter, Autumn, Spring, Summer etc), Style Themes (Simplistic, Loud, Contemporary etc). It’s your wedding, you call the shots and decide what theme you want to engage.

Types of Wedding Favors

The size of your budget will decide on the wedding favors choices. For more economical favors, you may consider using the favors provided by your venue vendor, which are normally at a minimal fee, or complimentary.

Some brides emailed me asking if I can convert some of my useful wedding blog posts into wedding articles.

What if they treat everyday just like a wedding day?

I would love to and I’m doing my best to follow this routine. There is no need any special occasion, and that is why I buy my wife a bouquet of flowers once a month to surprise her.

Even if she wanted a reason, I would say it is a prize for her for working so hard everyday.

Everyday, we ask about how each other’s day went. We are interested to hear what has happened throughout the whole day.

No filtering. No screening. We wanted to hear both the good and bad.

We make an effort to show interest in each other’s likings.

Would you want to get a like-any-other wedding invitation cards or a customised one?

Hotels normally have the common designs for their in-house guests and if you will be one when you signed up their wedding package.

Some wedding couples may not like their designs as they are too common for their grand affairs.

They want something that people talk about. They want something that project their personality. They want something that is like them.

Depending on the design, technique to make the card, the expertise of the professional printing it and the number of invitation cards you are printing, cost may differ.

After blogging about men’s ideal wedding gown, I want to show you something that threw me off my chair.

You know that wedding gowns come with different lengths of the trains, some some, some long, others very long.

I was surfing net and I saw this.

“In northwest China’s Urumqi city, a unique wedding ceremony attracted a lot of attention. The train of the bride’s wedding gown stretched 99 meters, making it the longest one measured in China to date.

50 flower girls were needed to hold the train for the bride so that she could move. Prior to this one, the longest wedding gown in the country was 67 meters long.”
