The following items are available on order as favors for your guests or gifts for those in your wedding party. Each gift will have a handmade tag attached with the names of the wedding couple and the date of their wedding, so your guests can keep these beautiful souvenirs and be reminded of your day! Different NGO’S supply these to us and all proceeds go towards them.
“Have a beautiful wedding on Zanzibar, but leave something behind for the community.”
