Lovely Wedding Favors to fit any budget

by

The holidays and the New Year will soon arrive and I was thinking that that’s the time when many people become engaged.

If you are planning a wedding or hope to soon begin Wedding plans one site that you should visit is Weddingfavors.com. Naturally, the products that they specialize in selling are Wedding Favors of all kinds.

The Wedding Favors site makes it easy to select and purchase wedding favors in volume. You see they have a volume pricing calculator. Simply visit the site and browse through their lovely selection of wedding favors. When you find an item that you’d like to give to your guests as a gift simply click on the product link to learn more about the item.

Often the price for a single item is displayed, however right above the price you’ll find a box where you can type in the quantity of items you’ll need. Type in the amount needed and then click update prices. If you’ve qualified for their volume pricing you’ll see that the price per single item has gone down and a total price will also be displayed. You might also see a message that tells you how many more items you need to buy to qualify for the next volume pricing discount.

You can also click on the volume pricing tab at the bottom of each Wedding Favor item page to see the volume pricing chart.

I love this feature! I don’t believe that I’ve seen a volume price calculator on other wedding favor sites that was so easy to use. I’m sure this feature will make it a lot easier for those planning weddings to stick to their budget.

As for the selection of favors – there’s a wonderful selection. They have beautiful pewter photo frames, boxes, cameras, personalized wedding favors, favors by themes, candles, flowers, place cards, wedding bell favors, Bookmark wedding favors, crystal wedding favors and even bottle stop wedding favors. The items are lovely.

You can also check their Sale section or browse through their wedding favors by season to find items that suit a wedding for any season.

Visit the Wedding Favors site to see their lovely selection.






Themed baby shower party supplies

by

I don’t know about you, but Spring through to the end of summer is when I seem to attend the most baby showers, wedding showers and of course weddings. I have at least one baby shower to attend this month and I believe another one in July! Everyone’s having babies!

If you happen to be the lucky person who’s holding a shower for an expectant mom you might want to visit PartyPail.com where you can get some very nice baby shower party supplies. This online store specializes in party supplies, and they have a large selection of baby shower theme packages that contain everything you need to decorate for that baby shower you’re holding.

The image that I’ve shown above is of the Mod Mom baby shower decorations. The kit contains 8 shower invitations and envelopes, 8 7″ snack plates, 16 napkins, 8 9 ounce hot/cold cups, 24 piece cutlery set, 1 3-ply tablecover, streamers, 1 Mod Mom metallic balloon, and 12 each of the pink, fuchsia and lavender latex 12″ balloons. This kit costs only 29.99 and additional items such as 9″ plates can be purchased separately.

I believe all of the bridal and baby shower themes can be purchased as complete kits like the one I’ve described above, or as separate items.

Visit the main page at Party Pail to see all the rest of their party decorations and party themes.

Weddings and anniversaries

by

My nephew just got married this past weekend. It was a private ceremony. He’s still young but he’s been irresponsible in his life. I think he’s got four kids now. I’ve lost count. At least this time he’s married to the mother of his last two children. Maybe it will work out for him. Somehow I don’t think I’ll ever be receiving 25th anniversary invitation from him and his wife. You never know though.

I remember when my parents had their 50th wedding anniversary. We planned for it for months. Choosing which golden anniversary invitations we’d send out, and planning the guest list.

The party wasn’t a surprise. We decided to hold it in my parents home, partly because it was easier on the majority of relatives who would be attending. Most of my siblings and myself live out of town – so it just made it easier planning wise. Of course we didn’t let our parents do anything. All they had to do was prepare themselves for the day.

I hope that one day Chris and I will be able to send out 50th wedding invitations for ourselves. We’ve been married 13 years – only 37 more to go! Wow that’s a huge number to bounce around. Thirty seven more years, yeah, I think we’ll make it.
