A few months before our wedding, I chanced upon this wedding on Style Me Pretty where the couple had made a donation in lieu of favours.
I told the husband (then fiance) about it. After a quick chat, we decided it would be meaningful to do the same - make a donation instead of spending the money on wedding favours which not all our guests might appreciate.
And so we made a token sum donation of a few hundred dollars to the Community Chest. We chose this charity because it supported different causes - children with special needs, people with disabilities, the elderly and families facing difficulties.
If you are a bride-to-be, I hope you will be inspired to do the same.
One of the ways you can do so is to support the ongoing relief efforts in Japan.
Help Japan Recover - American Red Cross and Singapore Red Cross
It may sound cliche, but even a small effort will go a long way in helping those in need.
