There’s nothing better at a fall wedding than good food, good wine, and
good company. If you’re looking forward to having all three at your special
occasion, then it’s important to take into consideration your wedding
favors. If you and your hubby-to-be love wine and want to share that love with
your guests, then you must take a look at some of our Fall Wedding Favors for wine lovers. These gorgeous, thoughtful gifts are sure
to delight your guests, especially if they love to indulge in a little vino
every now and then.

Turn your autumn wedding into a wine lover’s paradise by checking out
our Fall Wedding Favors for wine lovers and by trying out some of these great tips:

• Leaf
  Design Bottle Openers make for a great fall wedding favor, especially
  if you’re hosting your big day at a winery. Serve them up at each place
  setting to really bring your tables together.
• Leaf Design Wine Stoppers are also a great fall wedding favor to gift your
  guests with after the toasts have been poured and the occasion has ended.
  Keep a tower of these fall wedding favors near your doors so that guests can
  grab one on the way out.
• As a fun treat for your guests, raffle off bottles of wine at the
  reception. Hide numbers underneath the wine glasses and choose a few from
  a hat. Your guests will certainly appreciate this fun game and even more so
  the prize!
• Host your wedding at a winery or have your guests go on a winery
  tour or tasting between the ceremony and reception. Delicious and so much
  fun!
• Instead of doing champagne toasts and worrying about an open bar,
  serve up some homemade or hand selected bottles of wine at each table. Include
  a red, white, and blush for everyone at the table to share and enjoy.
• Include wine in your menu items. Desserts, sauces, and even salad
  dressings can be made tastier with a little bit of wine. Work with your caterer
  to find a few recipes that work best.
• Name your tables after kinds of wines. Cabernet, pinot noir, chardonnay,
  merlot, etc…
• Deck out your wedding in wine colors. Purples, reds, and golds are great
  for bringing wine together with your fall theme.

This is the time of year when everyone is thinking about planning their wedding.  If you’re thinking about something at the beach, or something outdoors, you need some original ideas.  We came across the Bridal Affairs Blog and we just had to share it with you!  The blog is written by an actual, honest-to-goodness wedding planner.  And she’s more than willing to share all of her excellent ideas with her readers!

We were initially drawn in by her post about Brides Against Breast Cancer.  She told us all about a fashion show at a Bloomingdale’s in Chestnut Hill, MA.  Breast cancer survivors ranging in ages from 24-54 participated in the show by modeling dresses from the famous Kleinfeld’s in NYC.  (If you’ve seen Say Yes to the Dress, then you know what we’re talking about.)  The organization Brides Against Breast Cancer accepts donations of used wedding dresses for breast cancer survivors.  We were so moved by this that we’d urge you to consider donating to the cause after your big day!  Help someone else have a big day of their own.

Go check out the Bridal Affairs Blog.  It certainly is, to use the old cliché, an affair to remember!

While you’re looking around on FavorWarehouse.com for your wedding essentials, it can be pretty easy to forget about one of the most important aspects of your reception.  You’ve got the favors picked out, you know how they’re going to be placed on the tables, and you’ve figured out your seating chart.  That’s excellent!  But what is everyone going to dance to?

The biggest thing you can remember about planning your wedding music is this:  it’s YOUR day.  And as long as you’re out there dancing and having fun, everyone else will have an easy time following suit.  You and your fiance probably have songs that mean something to you as a couple.  And you each probably have songs that you just love to dance to.  These are the kind of songs you want to make sure the DJ plays!

Once you get the specific songs out of the way, you can just settle on a good genre of music.  If you and your fiance have a thing for 80s music, make sure you pick a DJ that has a pretty good selection.  You also want to make sure they have some other stuff, too.  That way your guests will be able to make requests if they want to.

It’s all about variety, so keep it fresh!

Every once in a while we here at FavorWarehouse.com like to point out other fun and funky wedding blogs.  After all, you can’t be too inspired!  We were thrilled when we came across the Customized Wedding Creations Blog.  Customized Wedding Creations does, as the name implies, customized aisle runners, table runners, drapes, and parasols.  They even give you the option to customize your fabric!  Are you imagining a wedding with a leopard print aisle runner?  Well, they can do that.

We were really struck by their newest creation:  rhinestone banding.  Basically, this is five sparkly rows of rhinestones that you can have placed on the edge of any of their custom products.   They say that this rhinestone banding will offer the “most bling yet!”  Check it out.  Customized Wedding Creations will be running a contest for the banding sometime in the next month, so keep your eyes peeled!

Customized Wedding Creations makes getting ideas for your wedding really simple.  They scour Etsy (it’s an awesome crafting website, if you’re not familiar) for vendors with neat DIY wedding crafts, and create “treasuries” for their readers.  It’s a great place to go and get lost in your wedding planning!

Your bridesmaids are doing a lot of work for your wedding.  We bet they’re (almost!) as stressed out as you are!  Why don’t you treat your ladies to a relaxing spa afternoon at your home?  You’ll be able to spend some time together without spending too much money on expensive spa treatments.  The added bonus, of course, is that you’ll all get a little bit of pampering!

1. Set the mood with candles.  This will create the atmosphere you need for your “spa.”

2. Have soft music playing in the background.  You know, the kind that you always hear at the salon.  Enya or Kenny G come to mind.

3. Set tables up around the room with aromatic hand creams, nail polish, nail files, and some little plates of candy.

4. Be ready with bottles of water, veggie sticks, and some fresh fruit (and maybe some chocolate to dip it in!).

5. Pick up some body scrubs and have your girls take turns giving one another hand (and feet, if they’re up to it) massages.

6. Make sure your bridesmaids remember the day by giving them a little towel favor from FavorWarehouse.com.

On top of the pampering, this will be a great bonding experience for you and your bridesmaids as the wedding day approaches!

Baby shower games are something that can really make your shower memorable and fun!  Before you begin playing the games, though, it might be a good idea to just briefly go around the room and make sure everyone knows everybody else.  (We know they all know you, but they might not know each other!)  Once the ice is broken, everybody will have a lot more fun playing the games.

• Guess Mommy’s Tummy Size is a baby shower classic.  All you need is yarn and a few pairs of scissors.  Have everyone cut a length of yarn that they think will come the closest to fitting around the mommy-to-be’s tummy.  Then compare the results with her belly!
• Guess How Many Safety Pins is a baby shower take on the old jelly bean game.  Just pass around a jar full of safety pins and have everyone guess how many are in there.  The one who is the closest wins.
• Never Say “Baby” might be one of the most difficult shower games out there!  Everyone starts the party with a necklace (a length of yarn will do) with one safety pin on it.  Then everyone is instructed not to say the word “baby.”  If someone catches someone else saying “baby,” they get to take her safety pin and put it on their own necklace.  The one with the most pins at the end of the shower is the winner.
• Bottle Races is a good game if you have a group of friends that likes to laugh.  Fill up several baby bottles with milk, and instruct the players to try and drink it as quickly as they can!

Whatever you decide to do at your baby shower, remember that it’s all about having a good time and celebrating your baby-to-be!

Wedding Cocktail

Once everything else is selected for your special day, you might still feel like the occasion needs one more personal touch.  Why not try picking out a signature cocktail for the reception?  You can pick something that matches the color scheme of your wedding, or something that includes some of your favorite spirits.  You could also just go with something that has a name that fits the occasion!  Picking a signature cocktail also helps out the budget-conscious by seriously cutting down on the drink tab.  All of your guests can have a great time at the reception while they enjoy a cocktail that represents your new union.

Here are some drink ideas:

Cranberry Kiss

• ¾ ounce(s) Captain Morgan Spiced Rum
• 2 ounce(s) collins mix
• 2 ounce(s) cranberry juice
• 1 lemon wedge

Add all the ingredients into an ice-filled highball glass, and stir.

Garnish with lemon wedge.

Bourbon and Ginger Cooler

• 32 ounces bourbon
• 80 ounces ginger ale
• 2 thinly sliced oranges

Combine all ingredients into a large punch bowl.  Serve over ice.

So go ahead and put your personal stamp on your wedding reception with a cocktail that everyone will remember!
