I would use them to give to family members
Just hearing wedding music makes Mom and my aunts tear up. They would definitely appreciate a pretty pocket of tissues.
I would hand out tissue packets with the programs, cause a lot of my family is emotional!
The organza envelopes would be perfect to hold favors for the rehearsal dinner!
I would leave it in a mini basket and have a sign that says “For your tears of joy.”
Hahah my family will definitly use the tissues. They can go in each pew. We are all saps.
My bridal party gift for the ladies will be a clutch with practical items inside. This would definitely be part of it. I’d give a few more to my mom and FMIL. And, of course, I’d need one myself!
I would put them in a basket with lavender (my favorite scent) lining the bottom of the basket and “teardrop” crystals hanging from the top of the basket.
“For your tears of Joy” will probably be passed out at ceremony by a family member.
I would put them in each aisle (paying close attention to where our families will be sitting) I probably would put a pack up at the front of the church for myself and my fiance too as it will be a very emotional moment for us as well!
well, i’d make sure my MOH has one, cause I cry just thinking about my wedding.
BUT I’d also have a little table as guests enter the cermony site. The packs would be lined up in a wicker basket. I’d have a fame sitting next to it, with the words,
“Mallika and Steve deeply thank you
For coming to this spot today
To share the joy of love so true.
Now let us not delay.
Please take one of these envelopes
This ceremony will surely fly by.
Aren’t you glad we did not elope?
For now, with us, you get to cry. “
I would use them for our OOT guests … put them in their OOT bags and have little postcards of things to do around town in there. So its easy for them to keep track of!
I had planned on using organza ouches for my wedding favors, but these envelopes are adorable!!
i’d make sure my bridal party (girls) got one and everyone in our immediate family in the first couple pews — and of course I would keep one for myself, because I KNOW I will be a wreck!
I would set them in a basket on the memorial table. My family is a bunch of cry babbies. They would be much needed *lol*
I would use the packets by placing them on every other chair with a note tied to them … for your tears of joy! That way people could share the packet if need be - because who DOESN’T cry at weddings??
ohh super cute. i would place it in a basket when people come in and stuff the envelopes with tissue packets orrr maybe put little gift cards for my guests at the rehearsal dinner
I keep going back & forth about getting them but if I won them, of course they would be used! I would use them for family & close friends! I know they all will need some tissues for those tears of joy!
I would hang one of the tissue packets on each of the reserved chairs in the front rows (a la Mrs. Lovebug- I’ve saved her picture of this in my inspiration folder), and include them in the appreciation packages that I’m giving to my bridesmaids when we gather to get ready together.
I would use the tissue holders to give to the bridal party as part of their giftbags since they will probably need them!
For the organza bags, they would be perfect for holding the pins for the traditional filipino Money Dance to place on every table in the reception!
Super cute!
place the packets in with my reception booklets.
The tissue packets would be glue dotted to the backs of the chairs at the reception for everyones use. And the organza bags would contain the petals and confetti for people to throw as we come back down the aisle.
I will place the tissue packets together with the misalettes at each pew.
For the organza bags, I’ll put rosary cards inside which I am planning to give to my bridal party.
These are adorable! I would leave one in each pew, to wipe away all those tears of joy!!!!
In addition to being a bride I also staff weddings at a museum. Guests are always coming up to me prior to the ceremony to ask for tissues. As a bride I would use them to anticipate my guests’ needs and help us all be prepared!
I’d give 10 to my FMIL–she’s a very sweet but very weepy woman. When she met our officiant and read through the ceremony the first time, she refused to take off her sunglasses. She’s so cute and it’s become a running joke.
The rest would go to the female members of my family and my fiance’s family.
I’d give one to each of the special women in my life.
I would use the Susan G Komen inserts in the bags at our wedding to bring more awareness to breast cancer, while providing a useful gift to my guests.
My mom is in breast cancer recovery. To be diagnosed at age 45 was a shock to our family. a Mammogram helped save my mother’s life. Had she gone and had one the year before, they could have detected it earlier, perhaps in time to save her some of the pain she’s been through.
I want all those who attend my wedding to be aware how quick your life can change, and how important it is to have your yearly mammogram.
I think I would have to give at least 2 to my mom and some of my aunts and I am sure my FI knows who are criers in his family. They would definately be give to certain people and FI will probably need to hold one for me.
Oh, I love the idea of giving it to all the women at the wedding as their own special gift for being on my life!!
I would definitely give these to the moms personally before the wedding…. dads too I think its an adorable idea that i’ve never heard of! Thanks for the ideas and the opportunity for this prize
I think it’d be sweet to spread these throughout the ceremony seats and include a little note to encourage them to share the tissues. Then they can get to know the folks around them.
I’d seal each with a special note and give them to the bridal party and everyone who helped with the wedding!
Tears of Joy packets for sure!!
The tissue packets would go to all the ladies (especially moms, grandmothers, aunts, female cousins, female friends, etc)- of course! The organza packets I would love to use for the rose toss when my future groom and I come back up the aisle. So both would be handed out as the guests receive their programs.
I will need at least a few packets for myself. I am a big crier. I would also place them on the guests chairs for the ceremony.
I think I would fill them with lavender and give them to the women in our families for showing so much support and helping us with the wedding.
Fill with tissues for the ladies attending the ceremony!
My dad would need at least two- he’s a big crier!
Would use them for enclosure cards - with lottery tickets as favors.
I would keep a couple for me, give one to my fiance, and put the rest in a basket near my mom & his mom because they will need them.
I would place them on the tables at the reception with a card inside saying “in lieu of guest favors we will be accepting donations for ____ in memory of our loved ones who couldn’t be with us today.” I think these organza envelopes would be perfect for accepting donations. They are so pretty!
The envelopes would actually be pretty useful for keeping important but small items together, like bus tickets for out of town guests who want to travel around the area.
Given how I want to marry the weekend of the Penny Arcade Expo, I’d put them in guest bags to keep con passes and bus fare visible.
I’d put them on the pews for all the tears of joy that will inevitably be flowing.
Place them with our programs!
I’d probably try to feature them with our programs, maybe find a way to affix them to the programs… Definitely something creative though.
I’d put the tissue packets in the organza envelopes to give to my female relatives!
I’d put tissues in the envelopes and leave them in the reserved seating during the ceremony.
I’d give them to family!
Oh, these would be perfect! EVERYONE in my family is a crier. And I don’t mean the “dab your eyes” crier. I mean the face-scrunched-mascara-down-your-cheeks crier! And when one of them starts, they all follow! These would definitely be put to great use with my family!
The bathroom in our wedding venue is so beautiful. I would display them in a nice basket in the bathroom.
The future Mr.’s family has a tradition that when someone is leaving on a journey, everyone gathers outside and waves goodbye with some kind of white, handkerchief-like object. It would be SO cool to use these for our send-off!
I find I’d give them to close family and friends.
Pass them out to the female guests with the programs.
i would also leave them with the programs with a note about what they are, some of our guests would be clueless, haha. and i would definitely keep one for myself, perhaps have my fiance carry it throughout the wedding weekend. i am definitely a crier, except probably more at the rehearsal and random moments than during the ceremony!
I would use them for parents & grandparents to put tissues in for the ceremony!
I would hand them out with the programs. I know a lot of our family will cry and it will be very thoughtful to have something like these to hand out!
I would give them to our wedding party and close family…those likeliest to get all choked up during the vows.
We were thinking of giving guests nuts to munch on during the ceremony - it’s a Hindu wedding, so it would be very long.
What a great idea! I would use them for tissues.
I would probably use them for tissues, but also put in the Susan Komen insert since my grandma is a breast cancer survivor.
I would love to be the lucky winner of the tissue packs. I am a cry baby and so are my friends. I know they will be put into use. I will put them on a little basket at the church entrance or perhaps have it in the same basket as my programs to be handed out upon request.
As part of our wedding favors we are giving our guest 2 our favorite family recipes (which we are serving at the wedding). I think packaging them in the envelopes would be perfect.
I already bought some amazing leather trays in one of our wedding colors that I happened to find at 90% off, but haven’t been able to figure out what to use them for yet. Now I know! I would lay out the tissue packs on the decorative trays before our ceremony.
My family loves to laugh AND cry together. I’m sure our wedding day will be filled with both emotions so I’d love the tissue packs……
I’d set the tissues out in a basket for my family to grab, so they can pretend that they’re not crying, they’re just wiping away the Hotlanta-induced sweat!
I’d love to have one for each guest/couple for our wedding which only total about 15 people but there will be lots of tears I’m sure.
I would use the organza bags to put the tissues in, then put them in a basket at the gift bag table…I think! Either that or put them in the bathroom, or use them for myself!
I am getting married in Las Vegas, so I would put a poker chip in the organza envelopes along with a message saying to use the Lucky Coin for Love.
