Wedding Favor Ideas for your special day

You can't help but love the tagline at WeddingFavors.org . . . "Wedding favors for less, while serving customers more." This is definitely something that all brides I'm sure are looking for when they are searching for their wedding favors. When thinking of wedding favor ideas that suit you and your wedding day, you will want to consider your reception décor and wedding theme. Plus, if you prefer to give your guests a favor that is practical, decorative or both - great options include personalized wedding favors and candle wedding favors.

Personalized Wedding Favors

Design Your Own Collection Decorative Boxes, Personalized Expressions Collection Pail
Favors, Personalized Mint Tins, "Capture the Moment" Glass Photo Holder Bottle Stopper

If you are looking for a truly one-of-a-kind favor you will definitely want to look at personalized favors. Another option to personalize your favors is with personalized tags that can be added to your wedding favors.

Candle Wedding Favors

The gender reveal time is here . . .

As many of you know I am currently expecting baby number 2 and we recently found out the gender of the baby. Well, today is the day that I can share the exciting news with you on the blog . . .

We are excited to announce that we will be staying pink in our house :) Our 5 1/2 year old daughter was saying it would be a boy as she wanted to have a prince {she's very much into princesses now, especially Cinderella}. But, once she found out she will have a sister, she loved the idea and cannot wait to share her clothes that no longer fit {yes, I did save them all just in case}. She now tells daddy that he will be the prince to two girls, well actually three including mommy :) I Love It!!!!! And, the sweetest thing my daughter wants to do it use all the money that's in her bank {which is now full after a visit from the tooth fairy} to buy the baby something. But, she wants to see what the baby is drawn to in the store first before picking it out :)
