Uncategorized

August 19, 2016

One of the first things your wedding guests will be eyeballing when they first arrive at your wedding is a place for them to drop off their gifts. They’ll be eager to do that when they arrive, or else they’ll fear that they will be consumed with having so much fun the rest of the night that they will hardly remember to do this. If you want to do something with more personality and style than just a plain old card box, here are 5 options of ways to collect money at your wedding that are unique and literally “out of the box”.

1. A Vintage Suitcase

Head to a second hand store or an antique store to try to find an old suitcase. You can prop it open, place a sign inside, and use it as an item to display when guests walk in so that they know where to drop gifts. Using a vintage suitcase is a great idea if you’re having a more rustic or tropical themed wedding.

2. Use a Piñata

This is a great way to add personality and fun to your wedding. Purchase a piñata that fits the theme or your wedding or even one of your interest. Have the piñata hanging some place low so that when guests walk in, they can drop their envelopes inside of it. When the night is over, you’ll have a game to play trying to crack open the piñata before you dive into your gifts.

3. Go With a Mailbox

Repurpose an old mailbox and use it as a place for guests to drop off gifts. You can paint the mailbox or decorate it with flowers, photographs or even use it as a guest book and have your guests sign it with a personalized message for you.

4. Find a Hat Box

Take an old hat box and decorate it to fit the theme or your wedding, whether you’re going for something that’s more modern and sleek or you’re planning on having a more outdoor and rustic wedding. The hat box is an easy way for guests to deposit their gifts as soon as they walk in.

5. Customize a Burlap Sack

For an easy way to take your gifts home at the end of the night, have guests but them inside a burlap sack. Dress the sack up a bit by having a personalized message printed on it or by painting something on the front of it.
