How many weddings have you attended where you actually received a favor that you kept and enjoyed?

Favors are a tricky thing for the bride and groom because they want the favors to match their personalities and the theme for the wedding. A lot of the times the guests don’t even take their favors home and that just turns out to be a waste!

In our family it is tradition on New Years day dinner that each of us receive a lottery ticket! This is a wonderful gift to leave for your guests! A – Its cheap and B – They could win Millions!

I don’t know about you, but when I receive or purchase a lottery ticket I feel amazing! I picture everything I will do with the money when I win and how I can help others close to me. You are on a high for days until the big draw happens.

Giving a gift like this will keep the guests dreaming big and having a great time out!

Here are some ideas to incorporate lottery tickets as favors:

1. Message (or money) in a Bottle!
Roll the tickets up and tie a ribbon around them. Place the ticket into a small glass bottle.

2. Candy Rolls
Roll the ticket around a roll of personalized candies.

3. Fortune Cookie
Place a Fortune Cookie and the ticket in a small “take out” box.

4. Place Card Poem
Along with the Place Cards for each guest, type up a poem about sharing the bride and groom’s special day and place the lottery ticket with it.

5. Flower Power
Place a small potted plant for each guest and have the ticket stuck into the soil.

Using the lottery tickets as your favors will relieve so much stress! You don’t need to spend a lot and you can wait until the last minute to purchase them!

Good Luck!

Warmest Wishes,

Kris
