Hmmm.. This is my dilemma as of the moment. I am still thinking, should i give my entourage gifts or tokens? I decided to give the principal sponsors gifts though. Probably will give them wine with chocolates and I already know where I can get one. And the kids too, of course, I need to bribe them so they will behave during the wedding. hehehee... But for the SS and the Bridesmaid/Groomsmen, I really don't have an idea. My bestfriend told me its not necessary and she thinks I don't need to give one since being a part of our wedding is an honour and privilege for them since we are paying for their gowns (female ento) and we will be providing the neckties ( male ento). We will give them general souvenirs anyway so she thought I really shouldn't be bothered .(Awww that's really sweet bes.) But upon thinking, she makes sense.
But then again, this thing keeps on popping inside my head. I really feel I should give them at least something. Just a way of saying thank you to them. I mean, they also prepared for this wedding. Imagine waking up early when they could just attend the wedding wearing just the right clothes and leave the reception after its finished. My girls will make an effort to hire MUA to beautify them and it costs PhP too. So i think its just right to give them something they will remember. Again, since we will give them the general souvenir (which in my opinion,they can really use to store like candies or coins and not accumulate dust). I have decided to give them cupcakes. Yep, you read it right. Cupcakes. Why? well for one, at least they could share it with whoever they want. Second, when they get hungry after the wedding reception is over, they could just take a bite or decide to eat it later. I just have to be creative - presentation wise. My supplier and I already have a very unique idea for this: Its just two cupcakes plus two cookies with our initials. The color of the icing that will be used will match my color motif. We just need to look for a sprinkles that looks like diamonds. By the way, here are some of the photos of the cupcakes she made in the past. Not much pictures as this is not her legal career. hahaha.:
I am so excited for this.. Her cupcakes are soo yummy.. Siksik and moist. The icing is not too sweet din para iwas "umay" factor. And above all, her cupcakes are affordable. How did I know? syempre, she's my officemate and she is our "pastry supervisor" whenever we have special occasions, she brings goodies for us. One deciding factor din apart from she's my officemate, our Department Head ( a British national) got a chance to taste her cupcake and he liked it so much. hehhee. o d ba pang international ang taste? hehehe..
I am confident that my entourage will also like the cupcakes and hopefully they find the ideas unique too.
