When you get engaged, it is such an exciting time in your life. With all the joy and stress that goes along with planning a wedding, many couples choose to have an engagement party soon after the proposal to relax and enjoy the prospect of getting married. While this party is not meant to be filled with stress, any party planning requires some work. A unique touch that will mean the world to your guests is to hand out personalized heart favors as a way to say thank you for celebrating with you.
Boxes of Candy
Everyone loves candy, especially Belgian chocolate. Simply purchase some mini baskets or boxes in various colors and fill them with personalized heart favors that are from you and your new fiancé. You can personalize them with the date you were engaged, a picture of the two of you, an engagement ring or anything else that is sentimental to you that you would like to share with your guests.
Reveal the Date
If you haven’t yet revealed the date of your wedding, wait until your engagement party and do it with your personalized heart favors. You can have the foil or the actual chocolate of your hearts customized with the date of your wedding, making it a surprise everyone can learn at once. It’s a unique and exciting way to share your joy with everyone in the room.
Ask the Bridal Party
It can be overwhelming to ask all your bridesmaids to stand up in your wedding, especially if there are a large number of them. If you want a unique way to ask this important question, use heart favors as way to ask them. Whether you do this at the engagement party or if you have an informal get together with those you intend to have stand by your side at your wedding, you can surprise them with a box of heart favors customized with a unique way to ask them to stand up with you.
Getting married is always a time filled with excitement, although sometimes it can be stressful. Before the stress of planning the wedding settles in, take the time to enjoy this new phase in your life by having an engagement party. It doesn’t have to be anything fancy, just a way to get friends and loved ones together to celebrate your special day. In order to put a unique touch on your party, hand out heart favors that can be used as a thank you, a way to reveal the date or a way to ask people to be in your wedding with you.
