….infact, this isn't just a 'wedding favour' idea, these little handmade bookmarks would make such a pretty Bridesmaids gift, thank you gift, business gift or even a gift voucher! 🙂
Unless you've been hiding under a rock of late, you probably know I hosted a bit of a 'Summer Soiree' on 3rd August for a whole heap of wedding industry friends and acquaintances. It was my first foray into hosting a major networking event, and, I'm both proud and delighted to say, it was a huge success. Over 250 people attended the event from all over the UK and the first 100 ladies to arrive on the evening each received a beautiful little goodie bag crammed full of lovely treats, which happened to include a pretty bespoke bookmark from The Vintage Drawer Collection, by Vicky Trainor. Vicky personally hand-crafted 100 of these cute treats just for Soiree guests, numbering them inside out of 100, as part of this limited edition.
It occurred to me what a beautiful 'wedding favour' these bookmarks would make for your lady guests. At just £8 each {they come inside a pretty cushioned box with decorative features on the outside} they are excellent value for money. And they just look so very pretty. Imagine your guests delight as they sit down to your main wedding meal to find one of these waiting for them at the dinner table – or as a secret, hidden on their chair! 🙂
The bespoke bookmarks from The Vintage Drawer Collection can be made with personal messages, lines from favourite songs or poems, names and date of wedding etc. The only requirement is that a minimum of 10 are ordered each time…
There are a collection of bookmarks currently for sale over at Vicky's Etsy shop, and new creations are popped on the shelves regularly over there.
And here's an idea – after the Love My Dress Summer Soiree, Vicky received lots of twitter messages saying how pleased recipients were with their bookmarks…
"I started to ask who got which limited edition number, and it was really exciting to see who received what… didn’t know if it would be lovely to do the same on the post or whether it would be better to focus on ‘new enquiries/orders’ – anyway you are the expert lovely lady….just a thought out loud…
And here are some of the Summer Soiree handmade fabric bookmarks looking pretty 🙂
