When it comes to wedding favors, we say giving sunglasses is an absolute DO! The outdoor wedding season is just getting started, so why not give your bridal party some chic sunnies for the occasion? Sunglasses are a gift that just keeps giving — they protect your eyes, dress up your outfit, and make every group photo a winner. Plus, every time your friends and family put them back on, they’ll be transported back to the wonderful moments they shared with you on your big day.

The creativity shouldn’t stop at picking out your frames — there are so many unique ways to gift your bridal party some new sunnies. You could make them into a centerpeice of their own by placing them under a fun sign, or for a more personal touch, individually wrap them with a note to each member of the bridal party about why they’re a special part of your life.

And don’t forget to personalize! For all Zenni glasses, it’s easy to personalize the frames with engraving: add the date of the wedding, a bridal party nickname, or any unique message to keep your treasured memories connected to the glasses you choose! Your bridal party will love having something personal and customized to remember such a fun and amazing event.
