The garter--out. Silly and embarrassing. The cake smash--no way. HOURS of preparation and thousands of photos--not funny and actually somewhat cruel. Out. And the 'party favors'? Well, each morning, AFTER the wedding, there are dozens upon dozens of personalized candles, matches, decks of cards, etc, etc etc in the back of the house--in the trash. The other day, I saw the best "favor" ever. Two perfectly matched to the event Macaroons--in a sweet little plastic bag with a 'thank you' from the bride and groom on it. <br />Not ONE left the next day. Much better uses of money--and much more appreciated by all. <br />Looking forward to reading more about your upcoming joy-filled event!
