Shopping For Wedding Favors With Your Fiancé
Keeping your Fiancé in the know as to how the preparations for your wedding are going on is always a recommended step that relationship managers suggest all brides-to-be to consider.
This is because most brides first think of taking along a girl-friend for the various kinds of shopping expeditions they plan ahead of their big day, but few give thought to asking their Fiancé to give them company, when this is the very person who is joining them for life!
So, girls – wake up and smell the coffee – or rather relationship boosters – and build your
towards a happy marriage by starting off with sharing with the shopping chores and you’ll find it won’t seem a chore anymore to your partner – if you approach it right!
For example, shopping for wedding cake, attire and footwear may be something you prefer doing with your girly friends but perhaps more neutral things like shopping for wedding favors can include your husband to be also – so he too, feels part of the wedding celebrations and excitement!
He may not express it openly that he’d like his opinion sought about shopping for wedding favors, but since the favors are a complimentary item from the two of you to all the guests who could make it to your special day and bless your happiness, it’s the least you can do to make him feel part of the fun and excitement to ask him for his opinion on the kind of favors he’d like.
Especially if your groom is also sharing with the wedding expenses with you, it is only courtesy to ask him to accompany you in choosing best wedding favors, whether exclusive, discounted or personalized ones so its all about togetherness from the start of your relationship with a new tag!
Some men find that going shopping for anything is nothing short of a Herculean task and avoid going for these ‘binges’ that women typically love; others find the shopping trip has helped them get to know each other better and actually work out any small disagreements during the process of planning their wedding, which is really healthy for the relationship to develop and grow.
Of course, if not planned out properly, shopping for wedding favors can turn out to be stressful and tiring for both people concerned, especially if one is working around a tight budget or timeline!
Also, the wide range of wedding favors available in the market today can cause the best of persons to get confused over the many options and make it a really difficult for them to choose the right one for setting the mood for thanking all guests, which defeats the purpose of going on the shopping trip!
It is always best to discuss with your fiancé about going together to shop for wedding favors, as suddenly springing up a surprise shopping trip on him may not be taken well by a male as welcomed by typical females – so avoid disappointment by first asking and respecting their decision to either accept or decline.
If your fiancé is not too keen on coming along to shop for wedding favors, it may well be the best thing for you as you may get a free reign in selecting your favors in colors, types and even budget you like!
