All wedding planners and soon to be married couples know that sticking to a budget for the big day is difficult, but not impossible. Couples who want to keep their expenses low tend to cut out wedding favors as a whole, which can be sad. Instead of giving up that small thank you gift at the end of the wedding, why not be smart about it?
Consider these tips when buying wedding favors so you don’t have to worry about going beyond your set budget:
1 – Cut Back On The Total Number
It is impractical to give each guest a wedding favor. Save on the cost by giving one favor for each couple or family that attends the wedding. You’ll be surprised by how much this trick can keep the cost down.
2 – Beach wedding Christmas ornaments
Destination weddings can be expensive all on its own. As a way to thank your guests for traveling, give them personalized ornaments that reflect the destination as a remembrance as well as a souvenir.
3 – Just Married Picture Frame Ornament
Give your parents and your new parents-in-law a special wedding Christmas ornament that has a picture of you and your spouse as their very own wedding favor.
4 – Glitter Ornament
Give your guests a good reason to hang the ornament wedding favor by choosing something that has a festive glitter design.
5 – Avoid Putting Favors On The Table
Instead of putting one favor on each seat at the table, set up a table where guests can get one if they want. This lessens the chances of over-ordering ornaments and favors some won’t bring home.
6 – Choose Meaningful Favors
Personalized ornaments are very meaningful compared to other favor choices. This attention to detail will make guests feel special and they are more likely to appreciate the favor.

Useful wedding favors are better than those that will only end up gathering dust. Choosing a classing ball wedding ornament allows guests to hang it up on their tree during the holidays.
