Hey Ladies (and a few gents I'm sure).
I do not know a whole lot about wedding receptions but I recently was called in for a favor and helped with some shopping for a good friend of mine. I found this website called
Bliss! Weddings Market, and thought it might be of interest.
To my knowledge it is a division of a site called Bliss! Weddings, an award-winning website devoted to wedding planning. The site offers a lot of unique and inventive gifts/favors for weddings. The site primarily has wedding favors, and related things. A lot of favor type stuff, from keepsakes and elegant favors to edible items. I was impressed with the selection. The site has other sections as well, including favor packaging, table décor, and stationary.
One of aspects I enjoyed the most about the Bliss! Weddings Market appears to be how distinct and customizable it allows you to be with your favor or gift. They offer creative packaging and other raw supplies so you can create any facet of your favor to be as unique as you are. You can work around building a gift based on your own taste/style or (and sometimes more importantly) by budget.
I thought it might be something that you would all find interesting. Check it out if you get a chance, I really enjoyed using the website.
