Custom Wedding Socks for Blakeley & Brett - With Their Dog, Brock!
Would you say that your personalized wedding socks were a sock-cess?
They were a huge sock-cess! Everyone got a kick out of Brock being on them. Who doesn't love bulldogs and socks? We still get texts from guests saying they wore their party socks out or to another wedding they attended.
It's one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! 100%!
How did the two of you meet?
We were both attending Eastern Washington University, but we had a big party school about an hour away. My bestie went there, so I'd visit on the weekends. I was there for their homecoming football game and so was Brett!
He recognized me at the bar, so approached me and struck up a conversation! At the end of the night, I pretended I couldn't remember where my friend's apartment was so we could hangout longer.

What are some challenges that you faced when picking party favors for your wedding guests?
We struggled with selecting what to put in wedding favor bags that we thought our guests would all equally love. Luckily, everyone can appreciate a nice pair of custom dress socks, and the one-size-fits-most option made it easy.
What was important to you in the customization of your wedding favor ideas? What impression did you want them to leave on your guests?
We wanted the custom dress socks for our wedding to have a fun flair to them, because that is representative of our relationship. Our furbaby, Brock, is a huge part of our life, so he had to be on the fun socks design with a wedding theme surrounding him. We added our names and wedding date at the toe for a bigger statement.
How did you distribute your fun wedding socks at your wedding?
We had Brett's little nephews take baskets with the personalized dress socks around to guests during the reception to make sure everyone had one. One had a basket with the socks, the other had a basket with hershey kisses. Everyone loved it! Custom socks aren’t just good for fun wedding socks for groomsmen!
What is the process of making custom wedding socks like?
Easy peasy! I loved working with our designer, Maureen. She somehow read our minds and knew exactly the vibe we were trying to go with the socks. After a few mockups to get us rolling, we narrowed in on our perfect design.
It executed great and we had the socks in-hand way before the wedding. I wish every other piece of the wedding planning had been that easy!
What advice do you have for couples who are considering making fun socks for weddings?
Do it! It will last long after the wedding, so people will remember their experience for months and even years after. Be prepared for lots of texts and photos to follow with guests wearing their wedding party socks in everyday life!
If you're going to do a wedding favor, do it right! Opt for something that guests will actually love and wear. TIP! Order more than you think, because you'll have other people pop in your mind that you'll want to share them with. Keep at least 5 extra pairs for yourself!
