Make things yourself instead of ordering them online, buisnesses charge a lot of money for making the little favors themselves. make the hershey kisses roses. they are so easy to make and really cheap. a 12 oz bag of kisses at walgreens only cost $2.00 on sale and there are about 70 in a bag, thats 35 favors you can make. use your leftover red and white tissue paper left over fron christmas or use some sarran wrap to wrap the kisses, leave on the silver candy wrapper so if you get any glue on the candy its ok. Get creative if you want, you can buy some spaklers during the forth of july and use those as the stems for the roses. Especially cool if your party goes into the night. Look online for directions.

Print out your own candy wrappers on your own printer, cover up the small hersheys wrappers. You can make alot on one sheet.

Go to the dollar store! Not everything in the store is junk. they have small frames that are so cute.

Buy a bunch of empty small boxes and wrap them in really pretty paper, and put a bow or ribbon on it with the message.

We’d really like to thank you
For sharing our special day
So we though of something new
Because we have something to say "or" It's unique in a way

We took an ordinary box
As empty as can be
and we filled it with a special gift
And wrapped it carefully.

But please don't ever open it
Just leave the ribbon tied
And hold it tightly near your heart
Because our loves inside!

Love always, Bride and Groom

if used a bow instead of a ribbon say
"Just leave the bow applied"
