If you’re planning a wedding on a budget, then being able to find cheap wedding favors is a big key to the whole endeavor. After all, wedding favors are handed out to every guest, which can cause the costs to get out of hand very quickly if each individual favor is even the tiniest bit expensive.

So what is the key to finding cheap wedding favors?

It’s twofold. Creativity and Persistance.

Creativity in Finding Cheap Wedding Favors - Don’t limit yourself to only buying standard wedding favors that were made to be favors. Lots of different things can be used, and they can have the advantage of not only being inexpensive, but also cool, quirky, and sentimental!

For instance, you could use wallet-size copies of your engagement photos, even writing messages on the back. Or you could hand out a CD of your wedding music that has a picture of the two of you, with a meaningful message, on the cover.

Persistance in Finding Cheap Wedding Favors - One of the first rules of bargaining is “never accept a first offer.” This is true in this instance, as well. Of course, this isn’t going to help you with big online warehouses that you might want to order from, but it will certainly serve you well with any individually owned bridal surplus houses or discount bridal stores you might deal with.

After all, these people deal with surplus, and their warehousing costs are significant. The way they turn a profit is by moving an equally significant amount of merchandise. If you are offering to take an entire block of something off their hands, there should be some wiggle room available in pricing. Don’t give up!

Hopefully, these tips on finding cheap wedding favors will make your search easier and, more important, successful!
