17 printable gift boxes for wedding cake favors
We had some discussion on our Facebook page recently about this post for saving money on favors. One conclusion was this: why are folks not giving away free cake as their favor?

Let’s check out their whole wedding, including the awesome weed bar tent.

So I created my own inclusive, LGBT, and multi-ethnic children’s activity book, I thought I’d share my files, so you can adopt it for your own wedding…
