Is anyone donating instead of giving out favours?

I feel like wedding favours are cheesy sometimes. I think I want to have FH and I donate to a cause in lieu of spending the money on favours that people probably don't want anyway. Is anyone else thinking of doing this?

I'm thinking donating to a spinal cord injury foundation.

I like this idea a lot. The money would definitely be put in a better place.

But I'm giving favors at our wedding. I like walking away from a wedding with a little trinket, even if it is small, so I'll do that for mine to give to others. I keep them tbh unless they've been edible

I'm thinking donating to a spinal cord injury foundation b/c FH's uncle was a quadriplegic.

We are doing a donation as well. Wee have not decided on the charity as of yet though

We are doing donation favors.

We are donating to 2 causes. The MS Society bc my older brother suffers from MS. And my little cousins scholarship fund. He passed away 6 1/2 years ago at the age of 16 from Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. So both are very dear to our hearts.

I think donations favors are a wonderful idea! I plan on making a sign when people walk where the seating cards are explaining where, and why we are donating and having pictures on them on the paper as well as having donation cards at each place setting. There also can serve as book marks.

Here the link I found for the idea: I thought these were really cute and use our engagement pics so that was a double check ! lol

yea me too! I saw this and was like I have to do this!!! lol

We are donating to the Make a Wish Foundation and American Cancer Society.

We are not really doing favors either.... however we are having a photobooth- so we are using the photo strip frames as escort cards- so it kinda serves as a favor too when they put their picture in it from the wedding!

Got my favors today and am really happy with them Donating is so awesome, but I wanted to incorporate my mom some how since she's no longer w/us and she loved to play poker...and a great way to share my friends artwork from our invitaitons

I couldn't attach a pic here so check out my album. I love being able to share here because I learned the hard way not to text pics of things to friends (like me in my dress) they end up getting around and people yell at you for not sending it to them, WTH why don't I just post it on FB for all to see, LOL sorry had to vent for a sec. If that's the worst drama I've had, I'm very lucky!
