Top Wedding Favor Trends

Consider wedding favors? These top trends are nice ideas for all couples.

When you get married, your guests go through a lot of trouble to spend your big day with you. Some travel from miles away, while others rearrange work schedules to ensure that they can be there for you. Your wedding favors show them that you appreciate this effort. So what can you give that will not cost a fortune but will be appreciated by the recipients? Here are some of the top choices for today’s brides.

Edible Options

Edible favors are something that the guest can enjoy the day of your wedding or a little bit after your wedding. Chocolate candies in your wedding colors, personalized wrappers on chocolate bars, or even tea or hot chocolate that they can take home are all excellent ideas. Often, if you choose the right edible favor, the cost can be significantly less than other options.

Plants and Seeds

One take on the wedding favor idea is looking for something that will continue to remind the guests of you and your friendship with them. Seeds or a small potted plant or herb can be an excellent choice. You can personalize the wrapping or the pot to remind them of where the gift came from.

Cultural Significance

If either the bride or groom comes from a distinct cultural background, one way to embrace this at the wedding is to offer wedding favors from that culture. For instance, if the groom’s family is from China, decorative fans or even fortune cookies could be used as the favor. Be creative, but do not be afraid to play up the culture of the couple in the wedding favor selection.
