Office Is Closed: Sick with Stomach Virus

Posted in Life @ Little Things by littlethings on the March 31st, 2008

Dear Customers,

Our offices are currently closed.  Unfortunately, almost everyone in our office came down with a severe stomach virus this past weekend. Our 3 year old son was also hospitalized this weekend because of the virus, which we subsequently got last night. We are expected to re-open on Wednesday or Thursday of this week.

How will this impact your order?  It won’t!  I do have one employee who is currently OK but working from home, and our warehouse employees since they are located outside of the office have not been affected.  However, if you have emailed us, please allow 24 to 48 hours to respond to your email.  Since I only have 1 well employee, it may take her time to sort through all of our emails.  You may contact her directly at alecia@littlethingsfavors.com

Additionally, our customer service center is located in a different area than the office, they are open as well.  You can call them directly with any ordering issues.

Thank you for your time and patience in this matter.  We appreciate your business and understanding!

Sincerely,

Erica & Chris Tevis

That’s Amore! We Have A Wedding Favor For You, Domenico!

Posted in Wedding Favors by littlethings on the March 17th, 2008

Every time I pass by our stock of “A Slice of Love” Pizza Cutter Wedding Favors I am always reminded of Domenico from MTV’s That’s Amore!I admit, I happen to watch bad reality TV, so I am familiar with the show.  Each episode the girls are given a pizza box with instructions on the day’s task.  Well, our Slice of Love pizza cutters come in an adorable pizza style box - reminicent of the show. 

So, Domenico, if you ever find true love on MTV, we have the perfect wedding favors to compliement your wedding. :)

On a side note, the pizza cutters are a lovely addition to any wedding.  Made of stainless steel, each cutter has the word “Love” written accross the slicer.  The handle which is made of sturdy plastic, fits nicely in the hand for a great cut.  I actually have taken one home and used them to cut pizza - any not only do they work - but they also are great fitting in our utencil drawer - they don’t take up as much space as traditional pizza cutters do.  I love these favors - and so do our brides they are very popular this year!

When Should I Order My Wedding Favors?

Posted in Wedding Favors, Wedding Planning, Wedding Advice, Ask Little Things by littlethings on the March 17th, 2008

My RSVPs aren’t due back until 3 weeks before my wedding.  When do you think is a good time to order my wedding favors?

If you are planning on ordering personalized wedding favors you should order your wedding favors at least 4 weeks before your wedding.  This ensures that the items have enough time to personalize and ship to you.  This also gives you enough time in case items arrive broken in transit or if there are any errors which need to be fixed. 

Non-personalized wedding favors should be ordered no later than 2 weeks before your event.  This allows at least 5 business days for processing (many ship sooner) and at least 5 business days for shipping time (shipping can take anywhere from 1 to 6 business days). 

If your wedding is less than 2 weeks away, and your favors are not personalized, we would recommend upgrading shipping to ensure that they arrive in time for your wedding.

Chances are, you may not have an exact head count for your favors, but that’s OK.  You may already have some RSVPs, and if you go through your guest list you can estimate who will attend and who may not.  Once you have that total (of the already RSVP’d guests + your estimate) you may want to add 10% more to the quantity you plan on ordering to make sure you have all your guests covered.  Worst case you’ll have a few extra, but you can always save them for “memories” or give them to your nail tech, hair and makeup stylist, etc… (not in lieu of a tip but in addition to their tip).
