THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED. THANK YOU!
When you’re a broke-ass bride, often one of the first items hacked from the “dream stuff to have at wedding list”, is the favors. At our wedding, rather than buying favors, we had a photobooth and let the strips serve as keepsakes. My Best Lady also made a traditional greek almond and organza flower koufetta favor for each table setting, to honor my greekness. Opa!
But if I ever have another party and need favors for it (oh, and I will), then gimme gimme gimme that mini-gumball machine from
Beau-Coup Favors. It’s only like 3 bucks!
If we went to the worst wedding ever and were given that mini-gumball machine as a favor, this is how the conversation between the Broke-Ass Bride and The Fresh Hubby would go:
FH: “Man I feel bad, but that wedding was kind of lame.”
BAB: “Yeah, but how cool was it when we got mini-gumball machines as favors.”
FH: “Oh yeah that was the awesomest wedding!”
BAB: “Yeah awesome.”
With this
$75 dollar gift certificate to
Beau-Coup Favors you can pick out a ton of cool favors for weddings, babyshowers and pretty much anything you want to celebrate. Need Guidance? They have staff favorites and even picks from
Colin Cowie himself. That dude is like the Tim Gunn of event design!
People are going to love their favors from Beau-Coup, but remember it’s the thought that counts and what better way to convey your thoughts than by having your very own gift tags to add extra oomph to all those thank yous you need to give out? Or how about dangling from some pretty wine glasses for your function? I bet they’d look
Just Wenderful all prettied up! I happen to think they would be fantastic topping off the perfect out-of-town gift bag, or as place setting tags tied up around some vibrant napkins!
Just Wenderful has just about the cutest little etsy store I’ve ever seen! This sweet former DIY bride took her inspirations and talents to new heights and is now offering you
125 tags of choice from her fabulous selection! So
