MARK YOUR SPECIAL DAY BY HELPING AND SUPPORTING THOSE WHO AREN’T AS FORTUNATE – HAVE YOU THOUGHT OF CHARITABLE FAVOURS?
Every day in Northern Ireland individual and families are going through exceptionally tough times. At Getting Married in Northern Ireland we think your wedding day is the perfect day to be thankful for everything and everyone that you have, whilst also benefiting those less fortunate, so why not thank your guests for their presence and kind gifts by donating to your favourite charity? Charities across the country do good everyday, brightening the lives of those that need it most, but they are maintained and continue to function thanks to the charitable offerings of us, the general public. Whilst a quirky handmade favour looks great and is a real treat for your guests, you could make your favour extra meaningful and personal by giving to a charity. Maybe your family or friends were helped through a frightening time by one of the amazing charities we have here – a donation to them would be the perfect way to say a huge thank you. Many charities have little trinkets to supply you with in return for a donation. Little name cards, pin badges and even chocolates baring the charity’s name will make your reception tables that extra special.
