Wedding Favors

No modern wedding would be the same if it wasn’t for the wedding favors and they are often the main subject of conversation after the venue and brides dress. Many options now exist to fit almost any budget and even timescale if you are in a hurry. There is no longer any need to get stressed about what favors you intend to use with the large range it should make your decision easier and take less time.

An easy wedding favor option is flowers which really don’t take much to arrange but guests can enjoy. The preparation for flowers is almost non existent other than deciding on what flowers to use which can be ordered reasonably close to the big day.

Red roses always look attractive and of course they don’t have to be wrapped like many other flowers. You can simply purchase one for each guest and have a member of the catering staff, a friend or family member place one rose across each place setting after the tables have been set for the wedding reception.

These days the favorite is using candy and almost three quarters of events will use this as an easy wedding favor which can be enhanced by using a presentation tin. If you prefer, there is an even easier method to give candy which can also save money at the same time. This method has been taken from an idea used by families at Christmas and uses a large glass bowl filled with different types of candy.

Each wedding guest can then have a small bag or box to place their favorite candy in to eat when they like. Your guests will fill up the presentation containers with the candy in the centerpieces making this an extremely convenient gift which does not involve any wrapping.

If you prefer not to give your guests more to eat then another option is a small picture frame and if you like, it can be used on the day as placeholders. 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. By using the picture frames as placeholders provides a way around this, making it a gift that does not need to be wrapped.

One final idea for a very easy wedding favor is to give each guest a digital photo of themselves at the reception by hiring a photographer to take a picture of each couple as they arrive at the wedding reception. The photos can be printed out whilst the reception goes on and the guests will have a pleasant surprise at the end of the evening when they leave as their photo will be waiting for them. As everyone will be looking at their best this is a wedding favor they will really enjoy; seeing themselves this way in a professional photo. Many professional photographers have purchased small digital projectors so there is no reason why you couldn’t request one at the reception and this way your guests could see the images that had been taken during the day.
