When people agree to go to a wedding, they are attending the party because they want to be there for their friend or relative on their special day. An added bonus for these guests is the fact that they’ll probably receive some sort of wedding favor. While some of these favors just end up tucked away in a drawer or even thrown away, the best tactic to take with wedding favors is to go unique and useful. People definitely want a way to remember the wedding itself, but they also want something that they can really use.
This usually means that you’ll have to get a little creative with your wedding favors. If you’re having a Vegas wedding, for example, consider giving everyone a roll of quarters wrapped and decorated in a festive manner. In this way, everyone can hop down to the casino and enjoy a few pulls of the slot machine on the bride and groom. These kinds of unique wedding favors are sure to be a big hit. And if you’re having a more traditional wedding, consider personalized wedding favors like a love-themed wine stop or champagne glasses with the date of the wedding etched into the glass. These are all useful tokens but will still serve as a great reminder of the wedding.
In many Christian denominations, baptism is a momentous rite of passage. Children might not remember many details of an event that takes place so early in their lives; for parents and extended family, however, every detail counts. Some baptismal ceremonies are performed before an entire church congregation, which only adds to the event’s prestige.
Baptism gifts should be more than ephemeral items to be consumed and discarded. The most thoughtful presents can be enjoyed as keepsakes for years to come, and they should include a personal touch. That’s not to say that all baptism gifts should be handmade, but they should at least offer some suggestion of a close personal connection.
