Being Thankful and Giving Back

November 25th, 2014

Thursday is Thanksgiving. And there is so so much to be thankful for! Whether you are newly engaged, newly married, or married forever, this is the time of year when we can all take a step back and reflect on the many blessings we have.

In the spirit of being thankful, I thought I’d share one of my favorite wedding favor ideas. And it’s all about being thankful for what we have and giving to those who do not. Instead of a tangible favor for guest to take with them, why not make a donation to a cause or charity of your choice in their name?

Here are some very creative ways couple have used a charitable donation as their favor.

Happy THANKS-GIVING!

I love the idea of including a picture of why a donation was made to a certain charity. . . in this case a beloved pup.
