Great Wedding Favor Ideas
Sunday, March 30th, 2008Wedding favors are one of the more interesting aspects of planning a wedding but often left a little late in the preparations. 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. There is virtually no preparation involved in this and depending on how many guests you have you may not have to order them well in advance.
The traditional symbol of love, the red rose is one of the more popular choices and they do not require much preparation. It is a simple matter of asking one of your family to place the roses just before everyone is seated at the wedding reception table.
More and more people decide an easy wedding favor to give their guests is candy in a presentation tin or box. However, there is an even easier way to give candy and also help you to save money on centerpieces. This can be accomplished by using large bowls filled with different types of candy as the centerpieces on each table.
Each wedding guest can then have a small bag or box to place their favorite candy in to eat when they like. This really is easy because each guest can choose whatever candy they like and there isn’t a single piece of wrapping in sight.
Pictures frames can also work well especially if they are used as place card holders. 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. However, by using the picture frames to hold the place cards, you do not have to worry about wrapping them for your guests.
A different but still an easy wedding favor is to supply every guest with a picture of themselves arriving at the wedding reception using the services of a professional photographer armed with a digital camera. So to make sure each guest leaves with their photo, the photographer could take along a fast digital printer then they could be printed out whilst the guests are enjoying the reception. 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. If the photographer can arrange a slide show, the guests not only get a personal memento but they also get the opportunity to see how the photos turned out for all of the other guests as well.
