Wedding Favors
Practical wedding Favors
Our wedding favours were the cutest wine designed ceramic serving dishes, ordered and wrapped by Ingeniousdesigns.com.
The thank you cards were prewritten and placed on the package, like a little gift. The monograms were custom made with our names as well. The guests love these and still use the dishes today. The photo was taken when we took our engagement photos, knowing that we would frame it, print it and use it at the wedding to surround our favours. |

Wedding Rings And Jewelry
Our custom made wedding bands
We had these made at a local jewelry place in our area. We won a $450.00 cert for custom made rings. Little did we know that they would jack up the price and then take the $450.00. A rip off, but gorgeous rings in the end.

Bridesmaids
Custom Bridesmaids tanks
These cost around $24.99 to have made.
It they cost me $4.00 per tank, $3.00 for the decals, and on the back I had each girls name in the exact rhinestone lettering. The girls wore them the day of the wedding, but also at the stag and doe. It was part of their wedding gift from myself and my husband for being part of our special day. So really, each tank only cost me $7.00! Huge savings! I found a women on Ebay that makes the name decals custom, the the Maid of Honour, and Bridesmaids ones I found already made. |

Wedding Flowers
Flower for my Bouquet
I bought these at Michaels for $1.99 each; reg. $3.99, and gave them to the florist that I hired to put together as my bouquet and the bouquets for my girls.
They weren't plastic, or latex, but "Real Touch". You could not tell they were fake, unless you touched them! They were a long time idea to have as my bouquet, and the bouquet for my bridesmaids, because I did not see the sense of having real flowers. They just die and wilt, and most of the wedding flowers that are chosen by brides don't dry pretty. I wanted my bridesmaids to be able to have something to remember our wedding day; once the wedding we was over, they could place them in a nice vase, in their homes, and use it as a decorative piece. I also purchased an extra calla lily for my husbands boutonierre and boutonierres for the groomsmen, so that everyone's flowers looked consistant. |

Updated Info: The photo of our ringbearer is actually what we went with. My mom made the pillows with the simple purple sash, plastic silver rings and tiny calla lily. |

Kids Wedding Favours
Kids Wedding Favours
I originally was going to make these up, but the books would've been $1.00 + each, plus and crayons and little signs. Too much work! Too much money.
So I googled a bunch a wedding photo's, wedding wordsearches etc, the rest. I work for had little crayon boxes we give out to kids that come in, so I purchased a box from them, and made up a little thank you card to put with each scroll package for each kid. The vine basket was used at my bridal shower to hold the money gift envelopes, so I used it to hold the colouring book scrolls, and made up a little sign. The saying was found online as well! My guests loved it! |

I found this online... thank you in advance for the blogger that posted this picture! I love it! I am presently restoring a small wine barrel of this size, have already purchased the artifical grapes that Dollarama, and have created our custom monogram as seen in the photo.
This is going to be the money box at our wedding! What do you think? |
