What to Do About Wedding Favors? Part 3

AFFORDABLE WEDDING FAVORS
One simple way to make wedding favors more affordable is to give a wedding favor of a single real or silk flower to each guest. If you are already planning to have floral centerpieces you can discuss your options with your florist beforehand.

You will likely be able to negotiate an affordable price for this favor because you are already purchasing your centerpieces from the florist. Selecting one flower used in the centerpiece and having your florist supply enough of these to give as favors is a really nice way to tie the centerpieces and the favors together.

Alternately you might want to give each of your guests an artificial version of one of the flowers used in your centerpiece. These can be rather inexpensive and can also serve as a lasting reminder of your wedding.

You can add to this by getting ribbon printed with your special day’s details on it, again in the matching colors of the floral arrangement or your wedding’s chosen colors, and have the ribbon printed by the yard for the flower favors, and for any special gifts you might want to give to your bridesmaids and groomsmen.

Another way to keep wedding favors more affordable is to discuss your options with a wedding favor distributors. Many of them likely have closeout items available as well as discount items. Closeout items are items which have been discontinued, but the distributor may have enough in stock for all of the guests at your wedding.

Wedding favor distributors might be willing to offer you a discount if you are purchasing a large number of favors.

For the moment, you just need to make up your mind. If no, no problem.

If you have decided to go with a wedding favor, pencil in a notional amount in your budget to cover all costs, unit price plus extras per person (say $5) and start setting that aside. (You might also want to add the price of the thank you cards and postage to your budget sheet while you are at it.)

In our further articles, we will be giving you more specifics on the kinds of wedding favors available, and how to choose the one that is right for you and your quests.
