Wedding favors are an important component of any wedding. After all, not only do they help give your décor a little pizzazz, they also give your guests something great to take with them as a memento of your wedding. Unfortunately, it can be quite easy to spend a great deal of money on your wedding favors if you don’t shop smart. By purchasing your favors from one of these locations, however, you can save money while still having great favors for your guests.

Dollar Stores

Dollars stores are great places to look for items to use as wedding favors. If you walk the aisles of these stores, you can find small vases, glass votives, small baskets and more that can be used to hold potpourri, chocolate, and other items. You might also want to consider purchasing small picture frames from a dollar store and filling them with a picture of the happy couple.

Party Emporiums

Party warehouses are a great place to find potential favors at a low price. You can easily find affordable yet elegant items at these stores.

The Internet

The Internet is always a great place to look for good deals. You will find plenty of stores that exist solely online that offer cheap wedding favors and other items that can be used for that purpose. You might also turn to the Internet to purchase cheap CDs and to dowload music that you can burn to the CDs and give to your wedding guests. Fill the CD with songs that will be played at the wedding and it will be a truly great souvenier of your special day.

The Local Nursery

Potted plants can be a great addition to your wedding décor and your guests will love getting to take them home as a weddign favor. You can purchase flats of annuals for relatively cheap. You can then plant them in small pots and warp the pots with decorative tissue or foil before tying a ribbon around them.
