Wedding favors can be the perfect topper to any reception that your guests will talk about for years to come, though choosing the right one can be a daunting task to say the least. Wedding favors can be anything your guests will appreciate whether it be chocolate, a deck of cards, or something more creative. The hard part is figuring out what wedding favor is right for your special day. Some food for thought ...
First, think about what type of bride you are. Are you the traditional type or are you a bit more avant-garde? As you make your preliminary list of possible wedding favors, this step will help you to narrow it down quite a bit. Chances are if you're an electric guitar playing tattooed sky diving enthusiast, white chocolate dolphins on a stick just won't do.
What do you hope to achieve with your wedding favor? Do you just want to give your guests a tasty treat or rather something that they can always have to mark the day? Maybe you prefer to give them something that they might find useful. Remember to consider your guests during this step. If your grandparents on both sides are diabetic, then maybe a blast of sugar isn’t what the doctor ordered.
Where is your wedding taking place? If you're having a destination wedding, your favors should definitely reflect the surroundings. If you're getting married on a beach in Hawaii, you might consider something like bamboo picture frames or exotic pineapple candies.
What is the theme of your wedding? If your planning an eco-friendly wedding, a bundle of cork coasters or tote bags might be just the thing. Is your wedding taking place on a specific holiday? If you're getting married on Christmas Day, then Santa hats are the obvious choice.
What is the color scheme of your wedding? Its true that wedding favors can be a very special accent, but they probably should not be emerald green if everything else is hot pink. Try to coordinate your gifts, favors and decorations to have a consistent and cohesive theme throughout the duration of your ceremony and reception.
