Choosing the Right Wedding Favor.
No modern wedding would be the same if it wasn’t for the wedding favors as they are often the main subject of conversation after the venue and brides dress. A bad choice of favors is probably worse than no favors at all. Luckily, there are a wide range of companies with a comprehensive set of ideas that will help you pick the right gift to match your wedding. To help you to decide, you will find below some of the more popular and unusual ideas to make your wedding day perfect.
One option for an easy wedding favor, especially popular with the ladies, are flowers. Fortunately, as far as the bride and groom are concerned, apart from choosing which flowers to have, there is little else that needs to be done. A popular choice, is a single red rose which, as a symbol of love, is very fitting at a reception. Using a single rose per guest gives an appearance of style and the placing them, can be left to staff immediately prior to the wedding reception.
Although sweets may, at first, be seen as an easy wedding favor, it is immensely popular with almost three out of every four weddings using them. They are often placed in specially designed boxes which come in a variety of shapes and colours. Some people now use a much more convenient way to present sweets to their guests, by using large bowls filled with different types of confectionery as the centrepiece on each table. All you need to do after this is arrange for each wedding guest to have a small box where they can place their sweets. This could be called a self service gift because all you have to do is supply the sweets and an appropriate receptacle to place it in.
An alternative to using confectionery, is a picture frame which can double up as a place holder, just for the occasion. Although presentation is everything, there are ways around wrapping wedding favors and picture frames are an ideal example of how you can avoid this task. Almost all receptions have place names at the tables for the guests so this is an ideal way to present the frame without the need to spend time and more money on wrapping paper which, let’s face it, will only be discarded.
If you’re looking for a practical wedding favor, how about a drinks coaster? These can be matched to your wedding theme and customised to your own choice. Some will even double as a photo frame and could be used as place cards as well.
To keep up with today’s eco-friendly attitudes, you can find a really good range of eco stuff from seed impregnated cards that you can plant to create a garden to ‘match books’ that have vegetable seeds in the head. When the flowers come up every year it will be a beautiful reminder of your wedding.
A quirky idea for your guests could be a bottle stopper. Don’t dismiss this as nowadays, everybody is aware of the number of units of alcohol that should be consumed. This means that a bottle of wine may not be consumed in one night, so your gift will be perfect.
For a truly personal wedding favor, you can hire a professional photographer to take a picture of each guest as they arrive at the reception. Then, have a printer and glossy paper so that you can give everybody a picture of themselves looking great. You may even be able to arrange to have a slide show of the pictures so that everybody can see each other in their beautiful wedding outfits.
