Inexpensive Wedding Favor

Inexpensive Wedding Favor Ideas

A wedding is an expensive thing now days. Most people want to have a huge, glamorous celebration in honor of their love. There is nothing wrong with that, but many couples end up beginning their lives in debt. Instead of having fun on their honeymoon and enjoying each other in those early months and years of marriage, couples are struggling to pay for their extravagant weddings, their wedding rings, and a lavish honeymoon. So instead of spending thousands and thousands of dollars on your wedding, try to cut costs wherever possible. The first place you can save money is with inexpensive wedding favors.

Homemade Inexpensive Wedding Favors

Inexpensive wedding favors are easy to make at home. People love baked goods, and wedding guests are no different! You can bake several dozen of you and your fiancĂ©’s favorite cookies. Then either wrap them into tissue paper or tulle. Both tulle and tissue paper are very inexpensive, but they do not necessarily look cheap. You can easily make an inexpensive wedding favor using a baked item and a piece of inexpensive tulle or tissue paper. In fact, these can be extra special if you personalize them by writing the wedding date in icing on the cookies and using tissue paper or tulle that matches your wedding colors.

Store Bought Inexpensive Wedding Favors

If you are not very handy, you can still have inexpensive wedding favors that are purchased at a store. Many online sites offer inexpensive wedding favors like bookmarks and key chains. These favors can very easily be personalized to include your name, your fiancĂ©’s name, and the date of your wedding. Any online wedding site will have inexpensive wedding favors for you to choose from. However, if you have a very large guest list, even the cheap wedding favors can start to add up very quickly.

A Little Bit Of Each

If you want to have some sort of elegance with your inexpensive wedding favor, try mixing a little bit of both worlds. You can bake some cookies, a small cake, or make some homemade candies. Instead of putting them in tissue paper or tulle, you can purchase for a small price some elegant boxes, pyramids, bags, or envelopes to put the wedding favor in. This store bought container will make your wedding favors look much more elegant, and you will still achieve your inexpensive wedding favor.

Mixing and matching is the best way to create the low cost wedding favor that you are looking for. However, if your wedding is not meant to be especially elegant, then sticking with homemade wedding favors is your best bet.
