-Make the favors useful.
How many times have you gone to a wedding or party and thrown away the favor when you got home, or ate the chocolate then threw that beautiful custom printed wrapper in the garbage never to be seen again. Don't make the same mistake. There are so many different types of favors out there to choose from. Practical items like eco-friendly coasters, cookie cutters or bottle openers.
-Your favors should go along with your theme.
Are you having a beach wedding or a Christmas wedding? Whatever the theme make sure you choose a favor that reflects that theme. Instead of a boring old picture frame for you wedding, try a beautiful votive holder set in sand for the beach wedding or for that winter wedding how about a beautiful snowflake place holder that seconds as an ornament. The possibilities are endless.
-Use your imagination.
You would be amazed at the choices out there. Get creative. The guests will know you put thought into their favors making your event the most memorable one yet. For example a flower petal holder, cone shaped, that holds the petals you will shower on the bride and groom can also then be brought home by the guest and planted to grow their own flowers.
-Favor Boxes
Favor boxes are great if you are going to use candy or chocolate as a favor. You can find beautiful inexpensive favor boxes and bags hat will go along with your theme and dazzle your guest. Favor boxes are not only for candy though. Why not write a personal note for each guest thanking then for participating in you special day. There are so many creative things you can use favor boxes for.
So to recap make sure your favors aren't just a throw away. Put your money to good use and choose favors everyone will love and appreciate. Make sure they follow your party theme. Use your imagination; your guests will know you put thought into your favors and finally the versatility of favors boxes. Have a memorable day.
