Wedding Favor Packaging

 Have you heard that you cannot judge a book by it’s cover? You almost certainly are able to judge a favor by its cover. Whether an edible or a small take-home favor, find a way to uniquely package your favor in an attractive way. A quick visit to your neighborhood fabric store will have you finding ribbons that match your wedding day colors, and fill you with ideas to personalize each gift with a favor label. A few packaging ideas are:

 

Lovely brown boxes packaged favors tied with colorful ribbon

 

Clear cellophane plastic with customized monogram labels

 

Miniature metal or galvanized tin pails filled with goodies

 

Thin silver canisters capped with a personalized label

 

 

Once you've found the perfect wedding favor packaging that reflects you as a couple, and that you know your guests will appreciate, Plan the best way to give out your favors. Here are a few ideas to ensure your favors won't get left behind.

 

 

 

Place a token of appreciation on the table at each guest's napkin.

 

Set up framed card at each table with one of these statements; "Please Take One," "Be Our Guest," or simply "Thank You" for when the time comes for guests to exit the reception.

 

Plan for the wait staff to pass out favors on silver trays before the meal or in between courses.

 

Attach favors to the custom designed escort cards; this works especially well for smaller items or for favors that double as escort cards.

 

Personally hand wedding favors to the guests as they leave the reception. This is one of the more personal hands-on ideas which can be time consuming, so be sure you are up for the task.

 

If you're timing does not allow for personally handing out the favors, but you still want that personal touch, have the coat check attendant, doorman, wedding ushers, or even another of your bridal party members perform the privilege.
