A Traditional Wedding with Many Custom Twists

Ariel from Offbeat Bride posted this amazing story of a traditional Jewish wedding with many non-traditional twists.

The couple referred to it as a Jewish Rockabilly wedding. Friends and Family got so involved from the financial aspect to DJ-ing the reception. The bride made her own invitations, the groom’s mom dyed her crinoline neon green to match their decor and their graphic designer friends made their ketuba (Jewish marriage contract) for them.

I will let he pictures do the rest of the talking, but don’t you think neon green, rock themed custom favor bags would have made this wedding even more rockabilly??

So many wedding out there having the potential to be even MORE perfect if they added Custom Gift Bags into the mix. Don’t make that mistake! Order your very own unique custom favor bag for your next special event!

Final Part of the CustomGiftBag.com story

In one of our first posts, you read how CustomGiftBag.com came to be, and ways in which they were to actually produce the personalized gift bags. It was a long and thoughtful process, in which a technical expert was needed in order to not only get over that hump, but to produce the website and, well, take over the technical needs to promote and produce personalized gift bags.

Bar Mitzvah Bag. One of the many custom gift bags designed by Anton.

In comes Anton, CustomGiftBag.com’s CTO (Chief Technology Officer), and what an addition he is. Anton, like Danielle and I is a University business student and compliments Custom Gift Bag with a vast array of technical and entrepreneurial experience. He has successfully launched and then recently sold his own technical computer consultancy firm. Anton is now devoting his time to make CustomGiftBag.com a success.

Anton immediately came in and brought a whole new and fresh element to the CustomGiftBag.com team. He explained how we can maintain our operations more efficiently and he also had the creative knack to design many of the personalized gift bags that you see on our website. It was certainly the final element that was lacking from Custom Gift Bag, and Anton’s arrival allowed us to complete team.

Now you have the full story. We are three enterprising University students who have decided to complete our group assignment in the real world. Keep following us and we’ll let you know how we’re doing.
