Choosing appropriate wedding favors for your big day can be overwhelming. After all, you want to show appreciation to all those who have supported you on your wedding day, but you also want to keep the cost and scope within the budget you have made. Fortunately, there are no shortages of options out there, whether you want to make the favors yourself or purchase them. Here are a few ideas for picking favors that put a unique spin on the tradition.
- Custom Scented Candles – Wouldn’t it be neat if you had a scent that people associated with your wedding? Candle companies are happy to customize these for you. Add your own twist and get your wedding party together for a wrapping party!
- Sweet Treats – From granola to candy to anything you can imagine, one way to add a personal touch to your favors is to create a gift bag or jar of treats, or a candy table to select from using different, vintage containers.
- Personalized Flash Drive – Even in the age when wedding photos are shared almost instantly via social networks and phones, load up USB sticks with personal photos and songs that were played on your wedding day. This way your guests can relive your wedding whenever they feel like it!
- Charitable Gift – Carry over your charitable spirit to your wedding favors by making a donation in your guest’s honor and provide them with a token of appreciation. For example, if you donate to Habitat For Humanity, you can give each of your guests a mini tape measurer with a note attached.
These are obviously only the tip of the iceberg in terms of inventive wedding favor ideas, but will hopefully get you thinking of some ways to make your guests feel appreciated in a one-of-a-kind way. Of course, the Park Savoy staff can help you with coordinating how you present your favors. Don’t let the little touches you want to do for your wedding stress you, if you do want to have a favor, have fun with it, too.
