My wife and I are a bit eccentric. When we chose to get married, we wanted to plan a wedding unlike other, so we decided on a destination wedding in Alaska. The ceremony was planned to perfection, but we wanted to make sure the reception was distinct as well. She and I chose to find fun, odd pieces to include in the reception. The cake was red velvet with white icing, but we wished to make it really pop. Our concept was personalized bride and groom cake toppers. My fiancée and I went to the studio to have our pictures taken and had our pictures designed into a pair of bobble head cake toppers! I was happy to purchase them. After we had our pictures taken, my fiancée wanted to look at a few of the various other adjustable wedding favors. She found a personalized stemless wine glass that she thought would be perfect for her bridesmaids. She decided to buy them on the spot so they could be personalized well in advance of the wedding. I pointed out some toasting glasses for weddings, and she loved them immediately. The selection consisted of a number of glasses with different design and colors, and we simply could not resist. We also found some cool wedding place card holders, which we thought was a far better choice than just putting a card on the plate. After we made a decision on the placeholders I coaxed her out to prevent spending much more money! With every passing day our wedding drew nearer, but there was still so much planning to do. My fiancée wanted to give our moms and dads some sort of a gift to thank them for their love and support, however we weren't sure precisely what to give them. She went online to see the status of our personalized wedding cake topper and some small wedding favor boxes we had purchased. I suggested that we give them each a box filled with photos and keepsakes from our wedding. There was still something missing, however. Because our wedding was relatively small, we wished to send everyone home with something really unique. We didn't want it to be too traditional, but we also knew everybody values a beneficial gift. At first we considered giving everyone personalized wedding glassware, but then we chose not to because it would need to survive the plane trip home. We ultimately decided to give everyone gloves since it would be chilly in Alaska. The wedding wound up being a huge hit! Our photographer was even able to use a Polaroid camera for a couple of pictures so we could give our moms and dads the keepsake boxes as soon as possible. The band we employed was remarkable (and knew a lot more punk songs than we expected!). Our cake toppers were the centerpiece of our wedding. Everyone complimented the cake toppers and asked us where we got them. Everyone cracked up as my wife and I distributed gloves as a wedding favor. We'll certainly remember our wedding for the rest of our lives. Heck, we have plenty of odd mementos around the house to remind us! baby shower favor
