Ok, ladies… I know you’ve been scouring the internet in search of creative favor ideas. Well, search no more, because we’ve rounded up some of the coolest alternatives to key chains and bottle stoppers around!
A Yummy Idea
What’s a surefire way to make sure that your guests love your favors? Make ‘em edible! Personalized chocolates, cupcakes, or tiny baskets filled with candies make great giveaways. So do miniature versions of your wedding cake… wrapped in a festive box, they’re a unique favor that will remind your invitados of the fantastic time they had at your wedding.

Seasonal Surprises
Why not gift your guests with favors that reflect the time of year when you get married? Personalized envelopes of hot cocoa for a December wedding, beach towels for a reception on the sand, seed packets for a springtime soiree… you get the picture.

Go Green
Being eco-chic is always a good idea. Why not greenify your wedding by swapping out some of your vases of cut flowers for live ones—that way your gorgeous centerpieces can pull double duty as favors. Mini cactuses and succulents in pretty plastic pots also make great environmentally friendly take home gifts.

Pun Intended
Finally, make your friends and family smile with a cute tongue in cheek gift. It doesn’t have to be expensive to be memorable. Tulle baggies filled with gumballs (in your wedding colors, of course) are a big hit when accompanied by a fun, handwritten note—i.e.: “Mark and Sonia… Sticking Together!”
