Planning a Wedding on a Budget
Using Themes to Cut Wedding Costs
There’s nothing like a well
thought out theme to make your wedding celebration unique and memorable for a
fraction of the cost. A wedding theme should tell your guests something about
the two of you as a couple and as individuals because that’s what makes it unique.
If you share a love for sports, maybe a sports themed wedding would be right
for you. Or maybe you met on the beach, where you would likely want to choose a
beach themed wedding. Once you’ve decided on your wedding theme, you are going
to want to make sure all elements of your wedding celebration reflect that singular
theme, and that is including the wedding favors and gifts.
If you can’t think of a theme
wedding favor idea, one good way for you to start is to think about things that
are included in or that reflect the theme. For instance, if you are having an
Asian theme wedding, there are great Asian wedding favors available all over
the place including the internet that all have Asian designs. Some of these
samples include fortune cookies, chopsticks and take-out boxes and there are a
lot of beautifully designed favors with these designs at even dollar stores
these days. Some of my favorites are a fortune cookie place-card holder, a
silver take-out box that has the names of the couple engraved on it.
The good news is that no
matter what your theme is, you can find wedding favors to match it as long as
you think of things that make you think of that theme. If you are having a
beach theme wedding, you may want to consider favors with items like shells,
fish, sand, and water. Look out for designs with motifs like beach umbrellas,
flip-flops etc. For a really elegant and yet useful beach theme favor, nothing
really beats a beautiful silver dolphin-shaped bottle-opener or a shell shaped candle
accent. But if that’s beyond your budget, there are some cool and cheap wedding
favors like a shell card holder, a mini beach pail filled with candies etc.
Here are some more great
theme wedding favor ideas: if you’re having a particular flower as your wedding
theme, be on the watch for candy-holders, place-card holders, candles,
tea-lights and candy that is shaped in that particular flower. If you’re having
a wedding during the winter holidays, you may want to check out favors that
have bells and holly wreaths or maybe even some birds.
When it comes to themed wedding
party favors, the trick to making sure that your guests love their favors is to
pick ones that are elegant and in keeping with your overall theme and yet
useful. Themed weddings can always be bought without spending an arm and a leg.
All you really need is a big imagination and a few good ideas and you are off
and running. Just have a brainstorming session and see what pops out.
