2007 Wedding Favors - Beach Wedding Article
As big, bold and brash as weddings are for 2007, the buzz around wedding gifts seems to be towards the simpler, more intimate gifts and the message is clear: personalize, personalize, personalize!
Brides are replacing old gift favourites: earrings, jewellery boxes, and necklaces with casual keepsakes like monogrammed pajama sets, CD's of music you have shared over the years or more formally a silver plated photo album filled with 'best friend' photos and engraved with a personal message on the front.
Even grooms are opting for more intimate gift choices this year over long standing classics like hip flasks, cufflinks, and money clips. The trend appears to be in matching the interests of groomsmen with the gift choice: monogrammed golf towels or engraved golf tools for the golfing guy; personlized coasters or pub signs for the boozer; or caricature drawings of all of your pals together.
Almost anything that brings a tear to the eye is accepted and treasured in the gift arena for weddings, especially when it comes to Mothers of the Bride. Brides are rolling out the emotional barrel when it comes to gifts for Mom by giving heart felt letters folded into hollow, heart shaped pendants with special messages engraved on the inside. Equally soppy is the idea to take Mom on a special trip to celebrate old times and places you've shared together in the past or to create a compact DVD of family video's collected through the years.
If all this sentiment has you feeling queasy then revel in the fabulously frivolous array of fun beach-favours on the market today, from monogrammed flip fops, beach totes and toiletry bags, to chocolate starfish, conch shell candles, and seashell scented bath soaps. Whatever your destination wedding theme is, there's a favor to match it.
