The cost for monogrammed glasses for favors can start to get quite steep. Here is a nice solution....engrave your own! Michaels and Joanne crafts both sell a tool called EK Success Inscriblio Engraving Tool. For about $15.99 you can own this tool which lets you eave an impression on metal, tiles, and glass. Michaels has patterns for you to follow in the below link. Now all you have to do is buy the glasses, photo frames, candle holders, etc. and you've saved all of the expense of engravers!

Creative Save the Dates
An unusual but creative save the date idea....
Use postcards! Might sound obvious for destination weddings, but take advantage of your wedding in a historic building by using postcards as your save the date cards. Best part is that these cards are usually complimentary (or ask your planner at the reception site.) However, we see how using the postcards could be suitable for everyone. i.e. If your wedding is in Philly (or the Philly area) use postcards of the Liberty Bell or the Delaware Waterfront. Out-of-town guests will think it's cute and, well, a lot of people don't bother reading them anyways. If you two meet during college, use a postcard of the college campus.
Cost: Free to 25 cents each plus postage
