True Costs of Weddings Revealed

true-cost-of-wedding-2010

Bride Pop recently published their analysis of the true cost of the average wedding, and the breakdown is extremely illuminating.  Click on the image at the top of this post to enlarge it, or visit the chart over at Bride Pop’s website.

As you can see, the average cost of a wedding ends up with a total akin to something you’d expect to pay for a college degree.  With all the financial frugality we’ve all had to adopt recently, this number can seem daunting and make it feel like you’ll never be able to afford the wedding of your dreams.

Fear not!  This is only a breakdown of the average cost, which means there’s lots of opportunity to cut costs down here and there.  Notice the bottom right part of the pie chart, where it breaks down the cost for favors and gifts.  This is a great place to save some money.

You could use custom water bottle labels to jazz up bottles of water, and then tie ribbons around the necks of the bottles with little tags thanking your guests for coming to your wedding.  Place these on tables near the exits and encourage guests to take them to make the ride home pleasant.  This is an inexpensive and stylish way to cut costs on your favors, and you know your guests will put them to good use!

If you look at the costs for the reception, you’ll notice that you can probably cut down the cost for beverages and bartender by putting open bottles of wine on the reception tables.  Top the bottles off with custom wine labels and you’ve got pretty table decor and beverages all rolled up in one pretty custom package!

If you’d like some more ideas for saving money on your nuptials without sacrificing style, we highly recommend that you start with this article on planning a budget wedding, and then check out The Broke Ass Bride.  The happiest day of your life doesn’t necessarily have to be the most expensive!

Stylish Baby Shower Decor

We always get so excited when someone at our company gets married, has a baby, or celebrates a birthday because it means we get to see our products used firsthand!  One of the lovely ladies in our office recently had a baby, and as you can see in the photo above she put our mini water bottles to good use at her shower!

It was a lot of fun to watch the women at the baby shower milling around, chatting and playing games with these bottles sitting convenient right next to them.  The small size was great, because it gave the women at the shower the ability to juggle plates of food, purses, and their drinks without spilling anything.

There was also a beautiful little girl at the shower, and she felt very special indeed to have her very own bottle that was just the right size for her wee little hands.  The 8 oz bottle size is just the right size for grown-ups and little kids alike!

Custom label bottled water is stylish, a natural addition to baby showers.  You can match the colors of your label to the décor of your shower, so that while your guests walk around it’s like the decorations get to mingle right along with them!

The Superbowl is Coming!

Even though the playoffs have yet to determine who will go head to head at this year’s Superbowl, that doesn’t mean you can’t start stocking up for your Superbowl party!  Whoever ends up heading to Miami in February, you know it’s going to be a good game!

If you start early, you’ll have plenty of time to get your guest list and supplies together.  Have you thought about using custom beer labels as part of your Superbowl party decorations?

These personalized beer labels are great, with fully customizable text and bright, eye-catching colors.  When your guests reach for a cold one they’re bound to take their eyes off the game for just a moment to notice your creativity!

We offer two different football beer labels (Game Day, featured above, and Super Brew), and the great thing about these designs is their versatility.  You can print them to feature which team you support, the kind of beer you plan to serve, or even put them on bottles of soda if you’re inviting children to your party!

We also have a football water bottle label (Flag Football) so if you want to go all out customizing the beverages at your party you can make sure the bottled water looks great too (If you’d like a list of what we consider must-have Superbowl party supplies, check out this post).

Our custom labels take 3 business days to produce and you can choose from a wide range of shipping options to get your labels to you on time.  The labels are completely self-adhesive, so all you have to do is peel off the protective backing and stick them on.

Easy, fun, and custom!
