If you are planning a wedding, then you might want to consider using a theme which has some relevancy for you and your spouse. For example, if you both meet on a cruise then you could theme your wedding reception or party to include items which would be found on a cruise ship. Wedding themes have actually become more popular as young married couples are looking for ways to make their wedding memorable and unique.

While you might not think that cheap wedding party favors can be an important part of a memorable wedding, they actually can give your guests a flavor of theme of your reception, as well as provide a useful care free diversion for both adult and younger guests. For example, some friends of mine fell in love in Las Vegas, and decided to make gambling, and Las Vegas, their wedding theme. Each guest received invitations that alluded to their planned wedding theme. The party favors, distributed at the wedding reception included replica gambling chips, as well as packs of cards placed on each table in the reception hall. Of course these items were relatively inexpensive, but they turned the wedding reception into a memorable event. Years later they, and their friends, would fondly remember their "Las Vegas" wedding, and many of guests remembered at least a couple of the party favors.

While wedding vases for tables at your reception may cost hundreds of dollars to set and arrange by a professional wedding planner, how many guests will remember the type of vase that was at their table years from now? Probably not many. But we all remember as children receiving an interesting gift for the holidays, which perhaps didn't cost very much, but which added to the fun of the season. In a similar manner, cheap wedding party favors can add a memorable moment to your wedding.

One wedding I went to they were offering a variety of party favors during the wedding reception. These included such favorites as party hats, streamers, and horns. I was surprised that even the adults enjoyed using the party favors. Perhaps this is not so surprising given that many adults enjoy going to Halloween parties where they have a chance to unwind and be a kid again. In the same manner, providing cheap wedding party favors can be a surprise at an otherwise lavishly designed wedding, and can give adults an excuse to relieve the care free days of their childhood. Children who are often bored at weddings, will love the availability of decks of cards, inexpensive party games and favors.

Wedding party favors can be easily selected to relate to something important to the couple being married. One couple I knew getting married were both very much involved in athletics, such as tennis, golf, and even basketball. Their wedding party favors included tennis balls placed in baskets that were inscribed with the couple's name, and the always popular rubber ball connected to a wooden pallet party favor. Needless to say, most of the guests enjoyed playing with these gifts during the slow moments of the wedding reception, and though inexpensive, lead to a very memorable wedding reception.
