How Your Wedding Can Help Haiti

How Your Wedding Can Help Haiti

We issued a press release to local media outlets today urging HamiltonEngaged.com viewers and area brides to donate to Haiti relief in lieu of guests favours.

Now traditionally couples opt for little candies, picture frames, monogrammed coasters etc. to give their guest as thank you favours. As a wedding planner I unfortunately see those little items often left behind and thrown out at the end of the night.

Donating to a charity has been a common trend for a few years now and couples usually chose a charity of their choice. But we are urging you to consider donating to the Haiti relief effort especially while the Canadian Government is matching our donations dollar for dollar before February 12th.

So please visit www.canadaforhaiti.com and make a donation or call 1-877-51haiti for a donation on behalf of yor guests.


How To Get The Word Out:

If you want to inform your guests of your donation on their behalf you can...

1. Type out the information that you have made a donation to Haiti relief that was doubled by the government on their behalf and then frame it and place it on your receiving table.

2. Get your DJ and MC to inform guests that in lieu of favours you have made a donation to Haiti relief on their behalf.

3. Inform them by placing the message on the place cards.


Thank you for considering the needs of others at this tragic time in the lives of Haitians. Together we can make a difference.

Spread Your Love,
