Ten Tips When Ordering Your Party Favors We often have many clients ask for our advice when ordering their favors,and we love to assist them! We would like to share the answers to the ten most commonly asked questions we receive from our clients when ordering their party favors.
1- Try to incorporate your favors into your party theme.For example if you are having a Diamond Theme wedding, try favors with rhinestone accents.If you are having a Beach Theme celebration, try favors such as a tropical drink mixes. For a Tiffany theme, aqua blue and white with a touch of sparkle is perfect!
2- Mix and match your favor colors to coordinate with your color scheme for a stunning display. You will add an extra decor element to your tables without the extra cost.Here's one example - if your colors are pink, black and white, try ordering pink boxes with white bows and black rhinestone accents mixed with white boxes with pink bows and black rhinestone accents. Fill with alternating coordinating colored candies.
3- Your favors should be a reflection of you and should celebrate your personality. Select either colors you love, an activity you love or a city or place that holds special memories for you.
4- A general rule of thumb when counting the number of favors to order is: order one favor per single guest and one favor per couple attending your event. When incorporating our favor boxes into your table decor, we recommend one per placesetting or one in between each couple's place setting. Having a candy buffet? Please allow one bag per person.
5- If you are having children and adults attending your celebration, try ordering two types ofage appropriate favors. Children will love candies, coloring book sets or a small activity to keep them occupied while the adults will prefer a gift such as a coaster sets or truffles.
6- When ordering a monogram on your favors the first initial of the first name is placed on the left, the first initial of the last name is placed in the middle, and the first initial of the middle name is placed on the right. For weddings, the brides first initial is placed on the left, the first initial of the new last name is placed in the center and the first initial of the grooms first name is placed on the left.
7- If you are ordering personalized favors always double and triple check your order for spelling errors to prevent your favors from being printed with the incorrect celebration date or name.A simple typo unchecked can create delays and unnecessary extra costs with the entire order.
8- When ordering personalized favors always carefully read the number of characters allowedon each line including spaces and punctuation so there aren't any delays in shipping your order.
9- Always make sure you order enough favors for your guests. It is better to over order than to place a an additional rush order later for additional pieces. Dye lots may differ and you will incur additional shipping charges and perhapsrush fees.
10- Have left over favors from your celebration? If you are giving edible favors, why not donate them to a charity or a food bank?Your clergy from your ceremony or wait staff from your reception would also appreciatea token of your thanks. Also try saving extra favors for future hostess gifts, last minute holiday gifts or welcome gifts.

Jaclyn Peters Designs was was created one day with a phone call. A simple customer request from our sister site First Impression Favors.
One of our customers asked Jacqueline, our Head Designer if she could create custom made truffle boxes for a bridal shower.
The customer was having a difficult time finding the perfect color combinations to coordinate with the bridesmaid's dresses and the wedding color scheme.
With a background in Art & Design, of course Jacqueline said we could and our customer was thrilled with the results and absolutely loved them!
One design developed into three,then into five, and ten and so on and so on. More custom requests kept coming by referral and we kept growing!
Jacqueline recognized there was a niche in the party planning market place for unique and custom made favor boxes and candy buffet bags.
Each individual favor is designed to accent and become one with the party's decor and tablescapes while holding the guests' thank you gifts or treats.
We love creating extraordinary favor boxes that double as a two in one treat! We follow the most up to date trends in weddings and party planning to bring you the newest colors and hottest patters to create our favors.
