Nice Communion Party Favors!

Tuesday, April 28th, 2009

We had a lovely little communion party for our daughter. I wanted to find communion favors that would not only be beautiful to the eye but have a spiritual touch to them. So, I checked out a lot of religious shops and even book stores but still couldn’t find anything that seemed just right. So I decided to check online and see what items they may have for our communion party. I did find a nice selection of candles for our tables. The teddy bears filled with candy were the holy communion favors for the kids, and I picked out candies in pretty little tins for the adults. As extra party favors I ordered these really sweet religious picture frames with a silver cross. I also ordered a couple extra of them for our house, to put my childrens pictures in.

The day we went shopping for her communion dress I couldn’t help but think of the day when we’ll be shopping for her wedding gown. It scares me a little to know that day will get here a lot sooner than I want it to. Her beautiful dress and veil made her look so much like a miniature bride. I guess in a way when you are planning a communion party it’s a little bit like planning a wedding reception. Just like at a reception, there was the decorated cake, a band for dancing and foods of all kinds to enjoy. We didn’t want to lose the fact of the importance of this special day, but we also wanted to make this party a memorable one. I also bought a girls pink photo album for her to have as her very own with pictures of her first holy communion day and the party with her friends and family. I did go to a bakery for her cake, but as far as the food, we didn’t use caterers, some of the ladies helped me out by preparing some dishes of their own to bring. We had fried chicken, potato salad, vegetables and a few different types of salads. Just a nice dinner to share with our friends and loved ones. This party really meant a lot to our daughter and all of us had such a lovely time. She got a lot of very nice gifts from everyone and her father and I bought her a lovely gold cross with her name engraved on the back.

All during the party I was picturing her wedding day and I could see my little girl walking down the aisle to join her husband to be. I know that day is not so far away and we will be sitting down checking out the online selection for wedding favors and accessories. When she’s ready to start planning her wedding and reception, I’ll know the perfect place for her to go shopping. Not only do they have a fantastic holly communion favor section, but they have pretty nice wedding supplies too. I know she’ll be able to find just about any kind of wedding accessories and favors she needs for her wedding day. I sort of gave the site the once over and checked out some of the items they have, and there is quite a selection for all kinds of events. In fact, I saved this particular site to my desktop, because there are also quite a few suggestions for birthdays and graduations. You can plan a great bridal or baby shower, or have a fantastic girls night out party with all the super accessories and suggestions they have to offer. You can choose from many themed ceremonies and receptions like oceanside weddings, or seasonal ones like winter wonderland and my particular favorite, western themed receptions. You will also find great selections of themed shower accessories, special birthday party themes and a lot of more choices for the kind of party you plan to have. It’s a good thing I know the perfect online shopping store, I’m sure I’ll have a lot of opportunities to use it.
