Every wedding is different, and some weddings are family events with lots of little ones (or older children) running around. If you’re planning a wedding, you may want to spend a little time coming up with the ideal setup for a truly child-friendly wedding.

With a little forethought and careful wedding planning, you will create an atmosphere where children feel happy, stimulated and valued…while also providing enough grown-up sophistication to make your wedding romantic and memorable.

Here are some tried-and-true tips for putting together a child-friendly wedding that appeals to guests of all ages:

Keep Them Entertained

Children have tons of energy, and it needs to be diverted properly, or kids may act out and cause a ruckus during your wedding ceremony. Since these minutes are so important, find a way to keep smaller children (who aren’t in your wedding party) occupied.

A clever little goodie bag stuffed with age-appropriate small toys can be an excellent idea – just opt for quiet toys that will stimulate them and keep them happily entertained until you’ve walked down the aisle and exchanged vows with your groom.

Even small and healthy snacks, such a boxes of raisins, may keep children quietly munching while you get married in peace. Your goody bag will be your first defense against the natural high spirits of your youngest guests!

If children will be in your wedding party, let them know they will receive their own goodie bags as soon as the ceremony is over, or offer them little presents beforehand to sweeten their moods. For flower girls, pretty pendants or bangle bracelets in sterling silver will be fine choices for special wedding favours. Fun hair accessories that match the color scheme of the wedding will also be great gifts, and they don’t have to cost a lot.

For boys, puzzles, miniature cars, or sports balls may be popular gift choices for goody bags; if you want to give boys something they can wear during your ceremony, consider fun, yet formal bow ties that make them feel all grown up.

Making Kids Happy at Your Reception

Most kids won’t want the sort of gourmet food you dream of for your wedding reception – children have delicate palates because their taste buds are still developing. Therefore, getting too creative with cuisine may ensure a gaggle of hungry and potentially agitated kids.

To cope, set up special kiddie tables where children can enjoy their own “child-friendly” menu – to make it fun, lay down paper tablecloths and set up plastic cups filled with crayons at each table. Of course, very young children, for whom crayons are a choke hazard, will need to stay with their Mom and Dad at the grown-up table.

Let kids draw and create while they sample food and drink that is just right for them. One example of impressive wedding food that is still fun for kids to eat is healthy chicken nuggets without any “filler” or additives – talk to your caterer about choices made from fresh ground chicken and high-quality breading – then, brainstorm some high-end dipping sauces (honey mustard, barbecue sauce, and homemade ketchup, for example). Homemade french fries baked in olive oil and sprinkled with sea salt can be healthy versions of fast-food faves – and even picky kids will love them.

Pasta is also a simple (and inexpensive) way to please children – it doesn’t have to be fancy, just fresh and tasty with a healthy, homemade tomato sauce, a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil, and a touch of grated, good-quality cheese. Another workable idea is homemade mac-n-cheese – it’s awesome comfort food, it can be frozen and reheated, and just a couple of baking dishes full of this child-friendly staple can feed a lot of kids.

For desserts, let kids have some wedding cake, or make them a fun cupcake arrangement of “mini” wedding cakes, and then let them choose their perfect cupcake. Drinks should be healthy – avoid pop, as it will only make them more hyper. Limit sugary treats to dessert only – opt for natural fruit juices and pure bottled water.

If you have room at your reception venue, set up a playroom for kids, equipped with a TV and some popular movies on DVD. Cartoons are always a safe bet. Hiring a babysitter for the playroom area and “kid’s table” can be an extremely wise decision that barely puts a dent in your wedding budget, and all of the parents attending your wedding will be so grateful for your thoughtfulness.

“My friends are my estate.”

- Emily Dickinson

Without your loyal and lovely bridesmaids, your wedding would be less wonderful. These caring ladies are there to help you look as beautiful as can be on the big day…they also provide amazing moral support during the months leading up to your wedding.

If you’re given to a little Bridezilla behavior now and then (and aren’t we all?), you’ll have even more reason to value every bridesmaid in your wedding party… why not show these special girlfriends just how much they mean to you?

Avoid The Clichés – Give Your Bridesmaids Something Pretty To Wear At Your Wedding

The best way of showing you care is by helping your bridesmaids avoid the most dreaded cliché – the homely dress, designed to make the bride look so much prettier by comparison. It can be tempting to put your girls in ugly dresses, but it’s really a bad idea on many levels.

After all, you’re a modern, confident woman! You don’t want your bridesmaids dressed in tacky styles they’ll secretly despise. Your wedding will be more pleasant for everyone when you honor your bridesmaids – they don’t need couture pieces straight off of a Paris runway. However, even cheap bridesmaid dresses should offer the best quality, sophistication, and fabric possible.

A brainstorming session, where the bridesmaids come together and give you ideas about what they’d prefer to wear, would be a great “girl’s night” activity. Watch 27 Dresses or The Wedding Singer, have some snacks and drinks, and chat about bridesmaid gowns and fun wedding decor ideas!

Of course, it’s your wedding, not theirs – still, you should always be sensitive about their body issues and opinions. Treat them as you would want to be treated…even if you had to wear something terrible when they walked down the aisle!

Being a gracious, kind bride-to-be is just good karma! It will also ensure that your friends are happy and comfortable in their gowns.

Choose Wisely

If they’re paying for their own outfits, they will be so relieved when you choose modern, pretty dresses that can even be worn again for other occasions. Consider cocktail-length gowns for your bridesmaids – they can add pizazz to your wedding, and they are so classic!

A knee-length sheath is always a flattering choice for almost any woman! A-line skirts are wonderful for curvier bridesmaids – they balance their shapes beautifully. Pay attention to the unique physical characteristics of each woman. It’s possible to find different bridesmaids dresses for each lady, as long as you stay in the same color family. Have fun with it! Don’t be afraid to innovate!

You’ll Always Be The Star On Your Wedding Day…

You will be the focus at your wedding – you are the gorgeous star of the day! Your stunning, snowy white wedding dress, sparkling bridal rings, and glamorous hair and makeup will put the spotlight on you throughout the ceremony and reception.

Your bridesmaids will be there to provide the perfect backdrop – and backup – if they are feeling pretty and appreciated, it will show! Their positive energy will add a lot to your whole wedding experience – make the day special for them as well!

A Fun Gift Idea For Your Bridesmaids

Before or after your ceremony, consider giving each bridesmaid a special present that is fun, personal and even poignant. It’s not about money – it’s about friendship! Here is a lovely gift idea that can be work with almost any budget:

Bridesmaid Survival Kits -

These popular kits often contain boring essentials, such as travel toothbrushes, sewing kits, extra stockings, Chap Stick, and mints. No one really wants everyday basics as a present! Make your own emergency kit – but fill it with fun and glamorous little mini-gifts.

A rhinestone-studded compact mirror or a scented lip plumper will be appreciated by almost any bridesmaid. Bath bombs that fizz and smell delicious are cheap, but they will always be enjoyed – and they’ll help each bridesmaid unwind before or after your wedding celebration. The goal is to give useful items with a little added charm!

Add any fun extras, such as glam nail polish or luxurious body lotion, that you happen to find on sale in the weeks before your ceremony. Wrap the whole kit up in a basket or shiny gift bag – add tissue paper or cellophane, and tie it with lots of colorful ribbons.

Your survival kit should be practical, but also something even Lady Gaga would appreciate! Put in a personal note as well, letting the bridesmaid know how much she means to you!

The whole idea of planning for your wedding is stressful. You have so many things to consider: the venue, the entourage, wedding favours and of course, your wedding dress! Finding your perfect gown is a bit challenging especially if you are eying for plus size wedding dresses.

Even if you hire professional help to take care of the gruelling parts of the planning, as the bride, you still find it hard to simply take yourself out of the picture. As such, you personally take care of a few aspects of the planning, especially those that are close to your heart – such as choosing wedding favours.

Wedding favours are important because they immortalize your gratitude to your guests – meaning, even after the ceremony, your guests will remember your wedding simply by looking at the tokens that you give out. Thus, it’s important that you properly choose your wedding favours. Here are a few tips in getting the best wedding tokens:

1. Get unisex wedding favours.

While you can account for the number of your male and female guests, doing so is sometimes unnecessary, especially if this is solely for the purpose of wedding favours assignment. To save time and energy, you might want to get items that are unisex. This way, you won’t have to get stressed every time the number of female and male guests changes. Distribution will also be hassle-free since there is only one type of item to give out.

2. Order a few extra wedding favours.

Make room for adjustments by ordering a few extra wedding tokens. This will protect you from having nothing to give in case there will be a few uninvited and unaccounted guests. Some people will always tag along a friend or a spouse and you can’t control this. So, to keep yourself from worrying about not having enough wedding favours to distribute, get a few more.

3. Align your wedding favours with your theme.

As with anything else, a wedding must be properly planned – it must express continuity. Therefore, you must get wedding favours that are in line with your wedding theme. If your wedding is a black tie event, then don’t give out tokens that feature Disney’s cartoon characters.

4. Choose favours that are reflective of your interests.

Wedding favours are an extension of your husband’s and your life. Therefore, make sure that you choose those that have a touch of your likes and dislikes. It’s your wedding after all – it’s but proper that you choose items that you want to receive and things that have value to you.

5. Don’t hesitate to be cost-conscious.

Some bride-to-be’s are afraid of choosing cheap and less costly favours because they are worried of what their guests might think. Don’t be part of this impractical group. With the recession and incessant closing down of businesses, you need to be practical if you were to have a decent wedding ceremony. Don’ be afraid to get economical wedding favours; more often than not, you can get fabulous tokens at very reasonable prizes if you know where to look and who to tap.

Choosing wedding favours should not be done haphazardly. As mentioned, these are the items that will continuously remind your guests of your wedding even after they’ve stepped out of the reception party. Thus, it’s but proper that you get symbolic and useful items and that you take care of this task personally – if possible.

BestForBride.com is all about plus size wedding dresses, wedding favours and everything else about the most important day of your life. Whether you are looking for your perfect wedding dress or a wedding theme idea, the site has much to offer. Visit the site now and prepare to be mesmerized by a million and one great finds!

Whether you are the one getting married, are part of the entourage, or simply helping the couple in sending out wedding invitations, you need a few simple tips on the do’s and don’ts of these little cards and envelopes. Since the era of the town crier has long elapsed, then you must learn enough about the trade of modern wedding invitations.

1. Have the final list of guests. Especially for those who are operating on a tight budget, the number of wedding invitations purchased should be equivalent to your number of visitors. At least an estimate will do so in case there will be a few glitches or errors, you are still within the safe range.

If the design of your wedding invitations is one that needs an envelope, then purchase extra envelopes. This is to avoid shortage in case you commit typo errors while addressing them.

2. Use the proper titles. Weddings are sort of a black tie event. Thus, to keep up with the “theme” and to show your guests of your intention of keeping it a formal occasion, you must write their names with the correct titles. Know who should have the following labels: Ms, Mrs, Mr, Dr, Fr, Honorable, etc. There’s nothing worse than giving out wedding invitations that have sloppily written guest names.

3. Get involved in the designing process. Needless to say, you need to be there to sign off designs and font styles and sizes. This is especially true if you are having your wedding invitations printed. Even if you are buying generic and pre-formatted wedding invitations in your local bookstores or bridal shops, you still need to have a say on the design.

4. If you don’t want children in your reception, be polite in saying so. Since you want to imply this fact in your wedding invitations, then you must be prudent with your words. You can either not include their names in the invitation. For instance, you can put in Mr. and Mrs. Smith instead of Mr. and Mrs. Smith and Family.

If you think this would not suffice, then you can place the phrase “adult reception” in your wedding invitations. Spreading out word regarding your preference of not including children in the ceremony is also a good idea.

5. Don’t forget to put the dress code for the occasion. Some weddings are strictly formal, others are not, especially if it’s a garden wedding. For any guest who’s invited to a wedding, his or her first question would always be: what should I wear?

Thus, to make them feel at ease and make them excited about the wedding, inform them what you expect them to be wearing. Surely, they would be more than happy to receive such an additional piece of information.

Wedding invitations are essential part of any wedding ceremony. Without them, the word about an upcoming union of hearts would not be formally announced. Of course, your guests would not be properly informed of your preference to have them grace an important affair of your life because they don’t want to be a gatecrasher either. Thus, since you’re already spending for wedding invitations, then you might as well do it right.

As bad as it may sound, sometimes, things would not really go your way. Sometimes, things would not come out according to planned. This is especially stressful and nerve-racking when this happens during your wedding.

What do you do when days before the big day, your supplier for your wedding favours tells you that they cannot deliver your orders on time? Or worse, what would you do if upon follow-up, you get the response: “I’m sorry madamme, but I’ afraid that we don’t have a record of your order.”

Of course, your initial reaction would be to burst into flames. While it is rational to have an emotional outburst and probably file an official complaint to the representative that has handled you, there’s another side of this story that needs to be taken care of as well, and fast!

Yes, you need to have a backup plan. You need to come up with emergency wedding favours! Nobody would blame you if you don’t have wedding favours to distribute during your big day but you definitely would not want this possibility to even surface. Thus, you need to gather yourself and be in the game of planning again — this time, focusing on wedding favours.

Here are a few ideas:

DVD’s

This is something that is personalized and easy to come by. You can distribute DVD copies of the highlights of your life as a couple. Of course, you can also put in baby pictures of you and your groom, and some basic wedding details, such as the venue, date.

Giving DVD’s as wedding favours is also convenient. You don’t even have to contact a professional just so these will be reproduced. As long as you have a laptop, some blank DVD’s and a printer, then you’re good to go. This type of wedding keepsake is truly a do-it-yourself item.

Scented Candles

Yes, you may rant at how common and how ordinary scented candles as wedding favours are. However, if you just put in a dash of creativity into these candles, then it would look like these simple items were not really your second choice after all.

You can even buy these little babies in bulk in your favorite department store so you don’t have to deal with another supplier. After which, you can hire the services of a candle expert so he/she can then put a creative touch into these. In a matter of days, these common mall displays will cease to become ordinary and will be transformed into great wedding favours.

Porcelain Figurines

There are little shops in the malls that sell cute figurines of various designs — bride-and-groom, dolphins, cakes, flowers. Name it, they have it. All you have to do is pick a design and print little tags. These tags would then bear your names (yours and your husband’s, of course) and the date of your wedding. Viola, you have come up with fast but effective wedding favours!

Yes, it would have been better if things ran according to planned so you don’t have to be forced to deal with an emergency situation. But, if bad luck comes to you, then you don’t fret. You use that opportunity to turn things around and make the most out of the situation, especially if that happens on the most important day of your life, your wedding day!

If you have attended a number of weddings, then you must have already bought a special cabinet to display all the wedding favors that you’ve received. You definitely would not want to throw them away or to give them to your other friends and family members as these are keepsakes. In fact, wedding favors are keepsakes of a very special occasion in the life of a person that you also consider as special.

Because of this, you are bound to keep them; not only that, you are bound to keep them in good condition until a few decades or so, if not forever. But how do you ensure that the dozens of wedding favors that have landed in your hands would be preserved at least until the first anniversary of the couple? These tips will certainly show you how.

1. Put them in a safe place.

This does not mean that you have to deposit the wedding favors in a bank vault so they will be safe from burglars, home wrecks and even ordinary accidents. On the other hand, this means that if you have children at home for instance, you must keep these wedding favors out of their reach. You are not only doing yourself a favor. Somehow, you are doing the couple who have given you these keepsakes a favor for taking care of what they consider as a remembrance. You are also doing the children a favor because you are being responsible — you are keeping them away from danger.

2. Keep them clean and dust –free.

All things, when kept clean, would last a long time. Remember those pairs of shoes that are kept clean while left in the shoe racks? They do last for years.

The same is true even for simple wedding favors. If you keep them dust- and dirt-free, they will have a longer life span. Of course, if they are always clean, they will always catch the attention of your visitors at home.

3. Remember them.

It may sound crazy but even non-living things, as in the case of wedding favors, will “live” longer if they are remembered and thought of. You don’t have to act like a crazy person to do this. It’s as simple as acknowledging their existence everytime you pass by them.

If you’ve been keeping them in your living room cabinet, for example, then give these wedding favors a second look and remember the couple whose married life has started.

By doing so, you notice that a certain wedding favor needs cleaning, or is already nearing its “demise.” Through this, you also get to notice that it has been years since you’ve last made contact with the favor’s “owners.” This simple gesture could even allow you to revisit relationships and tie some strings.

Wedding favors may be simple, ordinary or even unnoticeable. However, remember the reason of their existence. And of course, remember the reason why up to this day, you are holding one of those wedding favors.

Those wedding favors come to be within your possession because once upon a time, you bore witness to the union of hearts of your special friends, or family members. And those little things, however ordinary, carry with them meaning that is beyond material essence… wedding favors mark as the start of two lives becoming one.

When it comes to gifts, the personalized ones are always the better ones. They are always the more preferred and more sought-after giveaways. The same is true for wedding favors – personalized favors would always reap more appreciation and would generate more memories out of weddings.

So, why are personalized favors better than the many other designs of wedding favors displayed on some fancy bridal shops? Well, there are many reasons why favors of this touch and feel are more preferred — the most important of which is uniqueness.

Uniqueness

Regardless of the design of your personalized favors, they will always have unique touch. This is because the design will bear your name, your family emblems. Even your simple initials could already do the trick.

This way, even if the design of your wedding favors is the same as the ones given out on another wedding ceremony, you need not worry. Your personalized favors will always be remembered as yours, and not someone else’s.

Sentimental Value

You can’t deny the level of sentiment that’s attached to personalized favors. Even in plain gift-giving, presents that bear the effort of personalization will always be seen as a notch higher. Your guests will also remember you and your wedding forever because these personalized favors will never fail in their job, that is, to remind your guests of the most important day of your and your husband’s life.

Advertisement

More often than not, wedding — especially personalized — favors will be displayed in the homes of your beloved guests. Therefore, their respective visitors and anyone who steps into their doorstep and lays eyes on those decorations would surely be informed about some of the details of your wedding. Not only that, personalized favors will not only advertise your wedding, but they will also promote the makers and manufacturers of these fine little things. Surely, your supplier cannot thank you enough for this free but effective advertisement.

Thoughtfulness

This is one unspoken but very effective aspect of personalized favors, thoughtfulness. Couples who decide on giving out this kind of wedding favors to their guests will always be thought of as a pair who is not stringent on time and thought. Even if these personalized favors are not that expensive, but as long as they are personalized, they will always be seen as special and meaningful.

Of course, you’d prefer your giveaways and wedding keepsakes to be dearly remembered. And there’s no better way in doing so than in investing thought and time before deciding on them.

Wedding favors, though minor in detail, are as equally important as the other aspects of any wedding preparation. They may be the last things that are presented and distributed to the guests but don’t forget that they are the last items that your visitors will “relate” to your wedding.

Therefore, it’s but important for you to strategically think of wedding favor designs as they will have a significant role in reminding your guests that once upon a time, a happily-ever-after materialized in real life — it so happened that such a life is yours.

If you want your wedding ceremony to be dearly remembered, go for personalized favors. However way you spell them — wedding favours or wedding favors — Wedding-Favor.ca always has an answer to your every unique need.

For the wedding ceremony alone, there are a number of things that you must prepare: your wedding gown, the attire of your entourage, the wedding venue, and even the wedding date! You also have to dip your fingers in deciding on the wedding cake design as well as in coming up with ideas for your wedding favors.

Come reception time, you have to worry about the food, the number of visitors, the program for the reception, and so much more. Even if you hire a wedding planner, you are still not completely free from wedding planning preparations functions.

Especially when you want a really special wedding (who wouldn’t?), then you’d surely go for personalized favors. Sometimes, personalized favors could cost you more, precisely because of the extra effort showered in making them truly your own, truly personalized.

However, if you just know where to look, and if you have the proper contacts in the right places, then wanting to give away personalized favors need not be costly. Here are a couple of tips in making certain that you get the most out of your hunt for this kind of wedding favors.

Wedding planning, especially when you really take charge of the endeavor, could really take its toll on you especially when you don’t have time as your ally. Sometimes, you find yourself running out of fresh ideas on wedding themes, flower arrangements, wedding favors and even reception venues. When this happens, pushing yourself hard and forcing your brain cells to work is actually a bad idea.

So, when you find yourself not being in the mood to think about favor ideas, what do you do? How do you ensure that you still get to prepare everything on time? Here are a few suggestions.

Take a Break

Just when you think it is impossible for you to take a break from all that’s related to planning, that’s exactly when you should do it. The human brain can only take so much. Your body, including your brain most especially, has constraints. It has its own mechanisms in telling you that it needs to recharge. You must listen to this.

When you think that you go on circles and cannot seem to move forward, then it doesn’t hurt to close your eyes for a while. Perhaps, you can even take a walk and keep your mind off the planning, especially on scouting for favor ideas. If you want, you can even watch a movie or read a book. These will help you regain some of your creative juices.

Refer to your Wedding Theme

When you feel like “thinking” again, then the first thing that you have to remember in deciding on favor ideas is your wedding theme. If you are into a garden wedding, for instance, then you can toy around flowers, flower-shaped candles and other cute garden items. You can always make use of the internet for things that would relate to your chosen wedding motif.

Make a Survey

No, you don’t have to really create a questionnaire, subject it to sophisticated statistical treatment and standardize it before you can run it. You simply have to make use of your friends and other close acquaintances to help you come up with great favor ideas. You’d be surprised to know that they too have unique items on their list, in preparation perhaps for their own weddings.

Hire a Wedding Planner

Well, if all things fail, then you don’t really have to force yourself to produce those unique favor ideas. This is the time when you have to consider hiring “outside help.” After all, “you cannot see how thick the fog is when you’re inside it.” Wedding planners can surely help bring in fresh favor ideas.

Coming up with great favor ideas may look easy — but it may not always be so in reality. The human brain requires you to have a fresh, open and happy perspective for you to be truly proud of the wedding favor ideas that you have thought of. When the brain is stressed or anxious, creativity oftentimes eludes you.

It is therefore important that even while still planning your wedding, you’ve already learned to relax and not be too controlling about it. Once you’ve done this, handling the stress and anxiety during your actual wedding day would only seem like a mosquito bite.

However way you spell them: wedding favors or wedding favours, these little keepsakes would really mean much to your guests. Therefore, make sure that you have the freshest favor ideas. Visit Wedding-Favor.ca and be awed with some fabulous finds!
