Bridal & Party Planning Tips

Are you a bride-to-be? Have you noticed that most everything that is even remotely "wedding" or "bridal" like is twice as expensive as something for say, a baby shower?

We have a few cost-saving measures we used to frequent when we were event planning that we thought we'd share with you here.

Contemporary Wedding Invitations- If you are having a lovely yet low-key wedding, or you are looking for an invite that is simple or a bit more casual, try our completely affordable yet high quality Paperlicious Wedding Invitations and coordinating response cards. Like this lovely one here. Samples are FREE so give us a shout and we'll send you the design of your choice so you can see first hand prior to ordering how fantastic they are!

Wedding Favor Boxes- Pretty much every kind of bag, box, or tin can be found online at www.papermart.com and the prices are seriously reasonable. Like this cutie bag right here. Not just for wedding favors either- bridal shower goodies, Quinceniera and Sweet 16 party favors, baby shower gifties. It's all there.

Edible Party Favors- We LOVE www.economycandy.com. The name doesn't do it justice - well, it sort of does- it is inexpensive candy - but what lies inside that website is pure delight for old fashioned candy lovers and modern candy seekers too. This tin of lavender mints is just perfect for an afternoon get together like bridal showers, afternoon wedding favors, baby showers, and birthdays.
