How about donating to Rainbow Trust on behalf of your guests, or asking them to kindly donate instead of buying you a wedding gift?
Donations instead of gifts
If you already have a toaster and towels, pledging your big day would give a family with a seriously ill child precious time together. This can be done through an online fundraising page. Include the link on your wedding invitations, online gift list, or display at your guests' tables. You can also collect donations on your big day and then donate the proceeds afterwards. Use our handy resources to ensure your fundraising is a success.
The money you and your guests raise will enable Family Support Workers to give practical and emotional support to families with a seriously ill child.
Charity wedding favours
Looking for an alternative way to give wedding favours? Give your day even more meaning by using charitable wedding favours. We have handmade place cards to personalise so your guests know that they are helping to support a cause close to your heart. If you would also like personalised donation envelopes, just let us know and we will send you what you need.
