Create a Wedding Invitation & Favor in One

The details make a wedding unique. Go beyond the traditional wedding invitations and souvenirs. See how you can make your guests feel special with a Wedding Invitation and Favor in One.

Engaged couples have a lot on their plate when making decisions about their upcoming nuptials. Some couples opt for the traditional route, while most want their wedding to be unique. The things that make a wedding unique are in the details. The details will make the guests remember the couple even after the wedding’s over! And one thing’s for sure, that when it comes to the event’s guests, it begins with the wedding invitations and ends with the wedding favors. As wedding guests, we must admit, we’ve instinctively tossed that wedding invitation in the trash almost immediately after the nuptials. And as for the wedding favors, well, there just doesn’t seem to be enough for all the guests who came to the bash.

The next step to having the traditional wedding invitations (yeah, the one with the fancy stationery and envelope with the occasion’s “who, when, and where”) and wedding favors, is making it a double-purpose memento: a Wedding Invitation and Favor in One. Surely unique, this sets a wedding distinct from the rest.

Creating the wedding’s dual-purpose invitation and favor in one doesn’t have to cost a lot. It may even save some money in the couple’s budget if done right. If an engaged couple were creative and resourceful, they can make something really personalized and beautiful without breaking the bank. They should think of a concept that will convey the details of their nuptials (the “invitation” purpose) and keep in mind that it is something that will be kept as a memento by their guests (the “favor” purpose) or even reused by the guests later on. It’s like hitting two birds with one stone!

One idea may be making a CD wedding invitation and favor in one. It’s creative, it’s practical, and it’s unique. Plus, couples can do a lot and get crazy in personalizing it. Almost every one has a computer nowadays and there’s free software that’s available online, to create a one of a kind wedding memento with pictures, music and maybe they can add an audio recording with the couple saying, “We want to share this special occasion with you.” Wow, a guest who sees and hears that will be so flattered with the attention and extra effort put into it. And if the couple were not so technologically savvy, they can ask a techie friend to help them out.

A wedding invitation and favor in one covers the bases of asking guests to come to the wedding, informing them of when and where it’s going to be and equally important, no guest is left out in having a keepsake of the couple’s nuptials. It adds that unique touch to a wedding and one can be sure that it won’t end up in the trash after the reception!
