Instead of favors....

Instead of favors....

We were thinking of making a donation to a military charity in lieu of favors. Anyone else doing this? We would still do the little tulle favors with the jordan almonds and we have a photobooth so they will also get pics of themselves.

We are doing a donation too, I think we are going to give like a small box with chocolates in it possibly and a tag on it that says a donation was made...

My FH and I are considering a donation as well. I've been to weddings where the only favor was the photobooth picture in a plastic photobooth frame, so I think it's nice that you're doing both!

edited for spelling.

Ok great! I went to look at favors and I was telling FH I dont want anything chichi and then the lady showed us serving dishes which is great for people who entertain but not good for everyone. So I thought the money was better spent on charities. FH is a disabled vet so its important to us to help other soldiers and their families.

I think a donation is a great idea. We are doing one too. I think we are going to do that, picture frames for the photobooth, and to go boxes for VH - To be honest, most of the favors I get from weddings end up in the trash after a few weeks. As a guest, i'd rather the money be spent on a good cause then on another shot glass or candle with the couples name on it lol!

We are doing it too. My MOH has MS and we were going to donate to that charity in honor of her. She cried when I told her we wanted to do that.
