Wedding Favors!



Wedding favors are a tangible item your guests will walk away with forever. The last minute of your wedding is just as important as the first. It is their last image and memory of your special night, so it is important to make sure this aspect of your wedding doesn’t get ignored. Here are a few tips to ensure that your favors have your guests smiling for the rest of the night:



Tips:

1. Make sure your favor is consistent with the theme and style of your wedding.
2. Make it something useful that they won’t throw out as soon as they get home.
3. Get creative and personal, it’s usually the last memory of the night and a “take away” for your guests. 
4. Delicious wedding favors are very in right now – everyone loves food and drinks!



Ideas & Trends:

 Edible Favors


Who doesn't love something to snack on after the wedding is over? Above are decorated chocolate covered apples. Other ideas include mints, chocolates, candy, wine, etc.

P.S. Everyone loves chocolate ;)




Something alive! 
Plants, flowers, or seeds with a whimsical note “love is always growing..”

Personalization
 Things like personalized coffee flavors, drink mixes, stationary, or wine bottles an are always a hit. Include your monograms, names, or pictures to make it personal yet useful to all guests.





Themed
 Staying with the theme of your wedding is another great idea to stay consistent and memorable. If you have a beach wedding, sand and shells are cute and relevant to give your guests.

I LOVE this s'mores idea for a country chic or outdoorsy wedding!



When brainstorming your wedding favors, think about if YOU would like to receive it after going to a friend's wedding. Check out Pinterest.com and search "Wedding favors" for more unique ideas. 
Good luck & Happy crafting!
