There’s absolutely nothing wrong with using sweets or chocolates as wedding favours, but some couples would like something a little different. Favours can give you an extra opportunity to showcase your style and individual flair. Your guests will certainly be happy to take these fun wedding favours home as keepsakes of your special day.
Mixed CDs
Everyone enjoys a good mix tape! Make a CD of music used throughout your wedding, or even just a compilation of songs that are special to you and your significant other. It can be a really fun wedding favour to leave people with after the big day. It could be a CD of upbeat songs to cheer them up or even a range of cheesy, love songs so they can spend some romantic time with their own partner.
Small Plant
We have seen this idea used a lot recently and we really love it. You can use anything from herbs to roses! If you want to be more personal you could have all different kinds of plants for your guests. These can bring a really earthy, green feel to complement your wedding décor.
Seeds
If we take a step back from the mini potted plants, you could simply provide guests with little packets of seeds. Growing flowers are a beautiful reminder of a beautiful day. The most common ones used as wedding favours are wild flower seeds and sunflower seeds; your choice can be a reflection of your style as a couple.
Key Ring
As fun wedding favours go, this idea might be a bit more expensive. Getting key rings made for guests could be costly, but if you have the budget they can be a very nice personalised gift to thank your guests for attending. Depending on you and your partner’s personalities you could get customised bottle openers or maybe just a quote that you would like to share with your family and friends.
We would love to hear from you. Did you have wedding favours at your wedding, what were they?
