UNIQUE PARTY FAVORS
Personalized, Unique, Sophisticated and Superior Favors and Gifts
Americans are following Latin Countries custom of giving gifts as a way of saying thank you. Although it was an exclusive Latin tradition to express gratitude as well as friendship by giving a "Recordatorio" or favor during special occasions, this tradition has quickly spread across America. Perhaps you are asking yourself, what is a "Recordatorio"? Please allow Unique Party Planning to elaborate a little about this custom.
A "Recordatorio" is far more elaborate than many of the party favors you are probably accustomed to seeing. These are personalized gifts which guests receive on behalf of their hosts for whatever the celebration it may be. It is the hosts personal way of saying "thank you" for accompanying us on such an memorable occasion. These gifts are precious and are considered special mementos of a joyous event. Recordatorios are a very important part of any celebration and are usually as unique as the hosts themselves.
Recordatorios may be given out in many different ways. These favors may be placed before each guest at their respective tables or they may be presented in a beautiful display as a part of the events decorations. Attendants may distribute them upon entering a reception, but most often, the hosts will go around and hand each recordatorio to their guest personally. This way they can express their love, friendship and gratitude on a more personal level. You can be sure however, that no matter how they are given, they will be treasured keepsakes by every guest.
Recordatorios are usually personalized and made up of almonds which are placed inside of lace pouches that are attached to small crystal glasses, slippers, flowers, hats, even miniature champagne glasses and satin or pearl boxes. Fine fabrics such as lace, tulle, satin and chiffon ribbons are used in their creation. Depending on the occasion, other items may be substituted for almonds such as chocolate, potpourri, nuts, crystal gems, bath oils or bathing salts. In Latin countries almonds are used for weddings because it is the symbol that represents "fertility."
Recordatorios are made by hand, one by one, in whatever style or color you may choose for your occasion. Each one is unique just as each celebration is unique in its theme, color or style. Their elaboration requires time, great care and the right materials in order to create each recordatorio into the symbol which it will eventually represent.
