Wedding Inspirations

It is fair to say that wedding favours do not rank particularly high on the list of a bride's priorities. Whilst it is common practice nowadays for couples to give out favours as a token of thanks to their guests, the lack of funds can be a hindrance at times. Indeed, many leave it to the last minute to see if there is any remaining budget that can then be used for favours.

A couple of pointers :

• Identify these tokens early, even if you are not certain that you may have the necessary funds. By having a shortlist in hand, a quick decision can be made when the funds become available.
• Having shortlisted the favours, pay a visit to the respective vendors. See the products up close and get a quote. Do also inquire about the lead time required for the favours to be produced.
• To ensure there is minimal wastage, particularly if the favours are perishable, an accurate guest headcount is absolutely necessary.
• Turn to close friends and relatives for help. An aunt who loves baking could possibly get some cookies done for you at a minimal cost.

Tip : Most hotels offer favours as part of their menu package. These usually take the form of a piece of cake or chocolates.
