Wedding favor bags come in a variety of styles. If you would like to still see you favor but have it in an elegant bag chose an organza bag. Organza wedding favor bags come in sheer colors. They add just a touch of color and still let your wedding favors shine through.

Each person will have a different color sand to represent them in the union. You can choose colors that compliment your wedding theme and style or go with something simple and traditional as black and white. The sand is stored in individual vases and poured together into a single larger vase to represent the union.

The vases or vessels you chose come in different shapes and sizes. I saw beautiful unity sand ceremony set that had heart shaped vases to hold all of the sand and I knew that would be the set I would want for myself. There were also wavy type shapes of vases that hold the sand. It really all depends on your style and what you are looking for. They can also be etched or engraved with the bride and groom’s names or initials. Having a personalized vase will really make it stand out when you display it in your home in the years to come.

I found old receipts from grocery shopping, rebate receipts, old coupons, and soo many pens that wouldn’t write to save my life it wasn’t funny. It always drove me nuts to grab a pen and not have it work. I don’t know why I would put it back in the drawer instead of throwing it away. Well I got rid of every pen that didn’t work, every highlighter that was dry and every pencil that kept on breaking. I actually have space in my drawers now it’s amazing.

I think my favorite part of all is now that there is space I am really actually excited to sit down at my desk and do more work. It’s nice to sit here and enjoy my cup of coffee on my nice clean desk. Why didn’t I do this sooner? It’s a big weight lifted off my shoulders and I’m loving every minute of it.

In some families the wedding garters are passed down and have special sentimental value. A great way not to lose this special keepsake is to have a wedding garter set. The bride can wear two wedding garters, one to keep and one to toss to the eligible bachelors. This way she still has something to keep and cherish and the bachelors still get a piece of something to bring them good luck.

Some brides also use wedding garters as a way to incorporate the tradition of something blue into their attire. This works wonderfully for them especially if blue is not one of the colors they have chosen to display. No one will see the wedding garter and she will still be wearing the blue in keeping with tradition. There are many options to chose from for you special wedding garters. I recommend considering a matching with two garters to have one to keep and one to toss.

I dropped it awhile ago and it put a teeny tiny little chip in the screen. It was hardly noticeable but I knew it was there and would only occasionally feel it as I would draw my finger tip across the screen. Well, once that little chip or crack was in there, all it took was another big fall to send the screen into bits and pieces or as I like to say smithereens.

The phone still works sort of but I don’t want to put it anywhere near my face or really even touch it. I’m worried it is going to cost me about $150 to repair the screen on it. Maybe I can buy some kind of self repair kit and do it myself for a fraction of the cost. I don’t want to void the warranty though so I’ll wait to see what they tell me it will be and decide from there.

Do your favors clash with the decor? That’s simple to solve too with wedding favor boxes. You can package your favors in boxes that compliment the decor nicely and no one will be the wiser.

Don’t forget that you can always use wedding favor boxes for favors that don’t come with packaging. This is also true for favors or treat you may have made yourself. No matter what your favors are you can always find a beautiful wedding favor box to present it in to your guests.

Each morning when you get up, before you even use the restroom make your bed. It will only take a few seconds. Okay, I know it depends on how many pillows you have on your bed, but if it takes you 5 minutes to make your bed in the morning consider tossing a bunch of the pillows out of the door. You don’t need anything that makes your life more stressful.

After you make your bed you are free to use the restroom. Then, get dressed. Why should you get dressed you ask?  Well, when you are dressed, including shoes, you are ready for anything the day may throw your way. If someone calls and wants to go to lunch you don’t have to think about it because you are already ready to walk out the door. You can go run errands and not out it off because it’s already 2 o’clock in the afternoon and you feel like lounging around in your pajamas instead of taking business because you don’t want  to get dressed. Remember, if you followed your bed time routine your clothes will already be laid out so it shouldn’t take much time at all.

Next, unload the dishwasher so it’s empty and can collect the new dirty dishes throughout the day instead of letting them build up in your sink. Figure out what you will have for dinner. This will make your night a lot less stressful so you don’t  have to think on your feet at the end of the day.

Just start with these things and then once you have these down then you can add more like starting a load of laundry etc. to your morning routine. But, if you only do these few things you’ll see a difference in no time in how your day runs.

Don’t stop at just using personalized napkins just at the reception tables. Think outside of the box. Offer a variety of shapes and sizes of napkins and use them in different locations. You can have table and  lap napkins, cocktail napkins to use for drinks and appetizers, and of course you can use them when you serve your guests the wedding cake.

Surprise your guests by adding personalized napkins in places like the bathrooms for your guests to use to dry their hands. These are much more exciting to see than the standard roll of brown paper towels. They will  be amazed at all of the details you have thought of to make your day memorable. These special little touches are what take a good reception to a fantastic reception.

In this routine, quickly run through the house to pick up any loose clutter that has accumulated through out the day. Then, wipe off your counters and make sure the dish washer is loaded and going if it is full. Set out clean dish towels on the counter or where ever you use your kitchen towels. Next pick out the clothes that you will be wearing tomorrow and lay them out so you don’t have to figure out what to put on your body when you are still half asleep in the morning, this includes shoes and any accessories you might like to add. Don’t forget to brush and floss your teeth, have a drink of water and use the restroom.

Doing these few simple tasks every night before bed will help you wake up feeling less stressed. I know when I wake up and walk out to a mess I feel like I’ve already started out defeated. If everything is clean, I feel like I can get started and have a great day. I challenge you to give this a try and see the difference it makes in your life.

Maybe give your guests something totally unexpected. For example, try giving them a personalized calculator. I know I am always in need of a calculator. I’d love to have a simple and elegant calculator that I can pull out or put in my purse to use whenever I need it. That’s a favor that I would truly appreciate.

Your favors don’t have to be expensive either. There are plenty of low-cost options to chose from. Favors don’t have to be expensive to make an impression. Just because something doesn’t cost much doesn’t mean it’s quality is lacking. You’ll be surprised what you can put together for your guests without breaking the bank.

Remember that you can use your wedding favors to add to the decor of your event. Unique little lanterns could really set the mood at an outdoor beach wedding. Everyone will be sure to remember them and be excited to learnt hat they get to take them home.
