Practical Wedding Favors
Guaranteed to be a
hit at your wedding
reception will be practical wedding favors and they can be as easy to
organize. If you cannot make up your mind about whether they should be
sweet or savory, you can guarantee it will be the sweet variety that gets
the ‘big thumbs up'. Quite often, a bar of chocolate candy in a specially
designed wedding wrapper is effective enough to make a good impression. Of
course hand made or fine quality chocolate will be received with greater
enthusiasm than the regular type you might buy from the local store! Many
people may eat the chocolate at the wedding but will probably keep any
packaging that it comes in, as a souvenir.
There is nothing
wrong with adding a photo of the couple as well to finish off the gift to
ensure it is something the guests will probably keep too remind them of
the wedding ceremony. Candy inside tins is also a popular option for a
couple getting married and has proved to be a popular practical wedding
favor. These tins become mementos of the big day if the bride and groom
have gone to the trouble of having the wedding details placed on every
tin. The guests may eat the candy soon after the wedding day but they can
keep the candy tin as a reminder of your wedding; they can use it to store
other small items such as change, sewing needles, rubber bands or
virtually anything which is small enough to be stored in them. Candy will
probably remain a favorite
practical wedding
favor for some time because it is so popular.
By using a large
glass bowl in the center of every table, the bride and groom can fill them
with their own choices of candy for everyone to share. An addition to this
is to have special boxes made up for every guest with the details of the
wedding and if you have decided on a theme of some kind then the box or
container can match this. Even though the guests will be eating the candy
during the evening, at the end of the night they can fill their
presentation boxes (if there are any left) and take them away with them.
If you are looking for a different practical wedding favor idea then why
not try arranging for the guests to have cookies instead of candy.
Undecorated cookies are best because they are supposed to go inside a
decorated box which can have the wedding day details printed on it.
Why not place an
image of the happy couple with the
wedding details
directly onto the face of the cookie to add a finishing touch. It won't be
difficult locating a bakery that can do this type of work and you can
speed up the process even more by supplying your own ideas on how you
would like the cookies to look. An unusual and more exclusive option for
practical wedding favors is to give the guests coffee, cocoa or tea. Tea,
coffee and cocoa are very popular with many people and there a huge range
to choose from these days so you would not have just stick with the most
popular available. Often the contents are in tins which can be
personalized with the bride and grooms details and makes the box or tin
more collectible. Perhaps these suggestions will help you decide what
favors you will give to your guests.
