Bright Idea – A Wedding Gift
October 12, 2011Written by Contributing Writer, Sarah Farthing
One of my favorite gifts to present a couple on the occasion of their wedding is their own invitation, custom framed! I know that checks and registry items flow in one on top of the other so this is a fun way to make a great gift that undoubtedly reflects their own personal style. After all, they designed the invitation!
So, if an invitation is particularly striking and if it is sturdy enough when it arrives in my mailbox to be free of creases and wrinkles from handling, I write down all the pertinent information I need and off to the frame shop I go, invitation in hand. (I use FastFrame and they do an excellent job.)
I’ve just started this in the past few years and the response from brides and grooms has been wonderful. So, look no further than your mailbox the next time you’re wedding gift shopping!
