With hosting and planning special events, we like to give the parting guests a token of appreciation for their participation and/or attending the event . Those tokens are gifts or favors. It can range from a dainty tulle sachet of Jordan almonds, votive candle to a whimsical miniature figurine. Now those selections have expanded with more practical and eco-friendly favors that everyone would be sure to love. Aside from the eco-friendly trend, there are some who like to give their guests a lavish parting gift like the celebrities do. Thankfully there are plenty of options for anyone that wants to have favors for their wedding that guests will love, but that won't break the bank. Make sure to choose favors that within budget range, plan and buy ahead of time how many to purchase for your guests and yourself to have as a keepsake once you have a list of those that have confirmed to attend and/or participate.
DIY favors add a nice unique touch to the wedding and can help you save a bundle, but save it for the pros if you are inept with arts and crafts.
C'mon baby, light my fire...and my smokes.
Sometimes it's cute to have a little whimsical touch to your favors but there is a fine line with being cute and being downright cheesy.
Speaking of the devil, this is one "grate" favor that will end up collecting more dust than my old toys.
I am all for favors that are practical, but again, not when it's downright chintzy.
Here comes the beer....and canned coke.
Moral of the story: Choose favors that your guests will treasure and will serve as a great reminder of how much you appreciate them.
