A Wedding Present for Me?!
When I was a child, I was always excited to receive party favors. It was like a present for me when it wasn’t even my celebration.
Wedding favors is a small gift for your guest to thank them for celebrating with you.
The ideas for favors are abundant, from edible options to useful wedding favors in everyday life or a keepsake.
Make all your guest feel like a kid again give them a special gift to remember the day by providing wedding favors to remember.
Something Edible
Food is the way to anyone’s heart. Combine a cute quote with your favorite edible as your wedding favor.
What about your favorite candy with a label that reads, “You’re so sweet for coming!”
Try something fun like “Thanks for spicing up our special day,” attached to a mini bottle of hot sauce.
A popular party favor I’ve seen is mini champagne bottles with a picture of the happy couple. Package together all the ingredients to make s’mores and label it “S’more love.”
Something Handy
Remind your guest of your wedding every time they use your wedding favor with options like coasters, bottle/wine openers, matchboxes, engraved glass or silverware, key chains, candles, or photo frames.
If you want your favors to last a little longer, then consider something more functional that your guest can use in their day–to–day lives.
With Covid–19 still affecting our everyday lives, consider face masks or hand sanitizers as your wedding favor.
A handy gift will be a friendly tool in everyday life. Not to mention it will keep the memory of your wedding fresh in everyone’s minds.
Making sure your day is never forgotten is just a handy wedding favor away.
Something just to Keep
If something edible or handy isn’t your style, you can make your favor something personalized.
Who says your wedding favors need to be used?
You can engrave countless items with you and your spouse’s names and wedding date.
What about something just to be kept in remembrance of your big day?
A token of your marriage and commitment to each other is all anyone really needs as a keepsake.
Some ideas include a magnetized photo of the couple or a small theme-related item, like a figurine.
Something DIY
Something fun would be a DIY wedding favor. Consider gifting your guests packets of flower seeds so they can plant them and watch them grow.
Let love grow with this unique favor idea!
What a great way to leave a lasting impression on your guests.
Something for Everyone
Regardless of what you choose as a wedding favor, make it your own with personal touches and ideas. Make sure that you and your spouse both participate.
If you can’t agree on one, you can always mix and match favors giving your guests two options of his & hers wedding favors.
The big–budget couple may be able to afford two favors per person. Traditionally the wedding favors make their appearance towards the end of the event.
Decide whether you will lay them out on display for guests to grab on their way out, leave them at each table setting, or have an individual handing them out at some point during your reception.
All in all, have fun with your wedding favors!
