UPDATED: Cute or a Waste of Money?...i made my own

These are tip envelopes to use when tipping the vendors...cute or wasteful? They are $15 for 8, comes with envelopes, cards and seals!

TIA

EDIT....

So i took all of your advice and made my own...what do you think of them...oh and it was free...i did it at work..color printer, envelopes and all

Re: Cute or a Waste of Money?

cute but also a waste of money since the vendors just care about what's inside!

$15 is not a lot, so it's up to you!

Re: Cute or a Waste of Money?

WASTE. Sure they're cute, but like pp said, they only want to tear it open and take out the cash, as they should.

Re: Cute or a Waste of Money?

Waste...it might just be $15 -- but IMO its a total waste. the vendors won't appreciate it--they'll be too busy ripping open the envelopes to get the cash.

As I was reading all the responses this was the first thing that came to mind!!!!

Roll the money up in a ball and throw it at them...nicely of course!!! And treat yourself to a quick 10 min massage!!!

Re: Cute or a Waste of Money?

Right away I thought cute, but I agree it'd be a waste. I doubt any vendor will turn around and say aww how cute. So the whole cuteness factor will be unappreciated.

It's cute but honestly it's probably going to be thrown out right away.

Re: Cute or a Waste of Money?

You probably have extra envelopes from your invites, right? If so, use those for tips.

And $15 for 8 IS a lot in my opinion...that's almost $2 per envelope! Oh, plus a sticker...

Re: Cute or a Waste of Money?

I know its only $15 but if we had that attitude the entire wedding it can all add up. I dont think its necessary

Re: Cute or a Waste of Money?

they are def cute, but I also think it is sort of a waste. ou can just tip them in plain envelopes- most of them prolly wont really notice the cute envelope- they will just want whats inside.
