Honoring your parents.

Couples sometimes get so wrapped up in becoming husband and wife that they forget about the people who brought them into the world. Whether it’s having them participate in the candle lighting or sand ceremony during the vows or making a heartfelt toast in their honor, even if your parents aren’t contributing financially you should still take the time to make sure they feel important.

Remembering lost loved ones.

Your wedding is a perfect time to honor loved ones who have passed away.

Sending guests home with favors.

Couples are spending more than ever on the overall guest experience, so it might seem like a good idea to skip favors in order to save some money. But guests have come to expect favors, and even a small token would be much appreciated.
