Charitable Favours Trend Grows

When it comes to wedding favours, sugared almonds and monogrammed trinkets are starting to become a thing of the past – instead, many couples are honouring their guests with gifts to charity.

"We've found that now more than ever, brides and grooms are turning the tradition of wedding favours into an opportunity to support the causes they care deeply about. Charitable favours are an inspiring testament to a couple's love, and we wanted to recognize couples who make that decision," says Bella Figura owner Debbie Urbanski.

The firm are offering complimentary favour cards to those whose wedding favours are a charitable donation.

Tips for creating the perfect charitable favour cards

• Provide a website where guests can find more information about the cause you're supporting.

•Keep text minimal and light-hearted. Mention the charity, express love and gratitude for your guests' support, and finish with a heartfelt signature.

• If the cause you're supporting isn't widely known, a brief description about the organization can be included on the card.

• For a cohesive look, your favour cards can pick up on the style and colours of your wedding invitations.

"The number of couples making meaningful, philanthropic gifts in lieu of favors is growing stronger each year, and we're thrilled to be able to encourage that trend," said Urbanski.
