Did you know that more and more couples are choosing to make a donation to their favourite charity in lieu of a physical guest favour? Add to the joy of your wedding day, by giving back to your community or a charity that’s close to your heart.
Did you also know that a portion of Red Bicycle Paper Co. sales are donated to select charities every year? Every stationery item that I design, helps give someone a meal, support a member of the LGBTQ+ community, shelter a mother and her child(ren), and provide adventures and support for female identifying cancer patiences, survivors & thrivers.
Thank you for helping me give back! If you have any questions about donating to a charity in lieu of guest favours, please don’t hesitate to ask!
So, how does it work?
Step One:
Consider donating to charity, rather than Giving a guest favour to your wedding guests
IN LIEU OF GIFTS
Q: What does “In lieu of Gifts“ mean?
A: Rather than giving a guest favour (like a cookie or bottle opener) to each of your guests, make a donation to a charity that's close to your heart.
Step Two:
I welcome you to donate $100.00 to SPECTRUM and receive $100.00 off your wedding stationery invoice.
Step Three:
Repeat!
Whether you donate physical items, a monetary donation, or volunteer your time, keep it up!
A little time & a little money goes a very long way! And provides a ripple effect like no other!
I’d like to introduce you to my favourite local charities & what they do!
