PARTY TIME - Christmas Wedding Favors

Getting party favors for everyone that attends your wedding can get a little pricing, and sometimes overwhelming. I have found some ways to cut some financial and stressful corners.

For the important family members, such as grandmothers and aunts who were very influential in your life, give them your flower arrangements. You're not going to use them anyway, so you might as well give them away.

And for everyone else, find something that will cater to most, if not everyone that is attending. My cousin Catherine gave each guest a small silver frame with her and her husband in it. It was very cute but inexpensive.

Buying in bulk also save some cash. So when you see something you like, buy a big batch of it. Look to companies like Oriental Trading or With This Favor that charge you less for each favor if you order a certain amount. Example: I found these snowflake bookmarks on With This Favor. If I buy 40, they are $1.20 a piece. But if I buy 96, they are $0.80 a piece.

Wedding favors do not have to be expensive. Just do your research, and don't be afraid to put in some elbow grease.
