Deciding on the
perfect favors for your guests can often seem like a very mundane task, but with
the following ideas, you too can impress your guests with a wonderful take home
gift!
Edible Favors
There are many edible options for favors including
personalized chocolates, boxes of mints, monogrammed cookies and even fruits.
Placing the edible favors in the center of the tables or in a basket where
guests can grab their share as they leave will allow each person to take home a
bit of your wedding.
Personalized Keepsakes
Some of the more popular non-edible favors for your
guests could include keepsake CD’s, photo frames, albums, notepads and matches.
Custom CD’s can be a great way for your guests to enjoy either the music from
your wedding day or other songs for many days to come. Carry out your wedding
theme into photo frames or albums to allow guests to display their keepsake for
others to see. Even monogrammed notepads and matches are a great way to say
thanks for coming to your wedding.
Scented Options
Consider candles, flowers and soaps as another favor
option available to intrigue your guests’ senses. Candles can be molded into
many shapes and sizes such as wedding cakes, flowers, or brides and grooms,
which make great souvenirs. Giving your guests the gift of flowers can come in
the form of wildflower seeds in personalized packets, bulbs in handy gift boxes
or even flowers from your centerpieces. Let your guests enjoy scented soaps
with monogrammed letters on them. You can choose a scent and color which
coincides with your wedding theme to carry a consistent image across every
aspect of your wedding.
Useful Favors
Why not take your favors a step further and give guests
coasters, luggage tags or even bookmarks. Take the connoisseur route and
provide guests with bottle openers or stoppers, mugs, heart measuring spoons, or
even coffee scoopers. Each item will allow the guests to not only remember your
special day but get use out of their favors as well.
