Weddings are wonderful and beautiful events that should be approached in a tasteful manner. You do not have to spend a ton of cash on wedding supplies to have an elegant reception party. In fact, there are many classy wedding favors that can help you to achieve two goals. The first goal is to have a wedding that looks like you spent a fortune. The second goal is to not spend a fortune.
For an easy wedding favor that fits year round receptions, try giving each guest a bag of premium chocolates, like Ghiradelli. They are easy to find (Walgreens, Wal-Mart, etc.) and inexpensive gifts for your guests. Place next to each guest’s space at the tables for a classy decoration as well as a delicious wedding favor. If you want to get a little more creative with the use of chocolate, try putting miniature candies in jars, bags, or ceramic dishes.
No doubt do candles often make their appearance in weddings as unity candles and other church decoration. Give your guests an elegant gift to take home with candle holders, votives, floating candles, or novelty candles like a bride and groom candle set. For fall weddings, apple cinnamon candles are great favors that will make any home smell delicious. A spring ceremony might inspire different shapes of candles like flowers or butterflies. Find many varities of candles in the home section of Target or Wal-Mart.
If you are planning to wed around the Easter holiday, a great and inexpensive wedding favor for you to use would be eggs. Of course, not just any egg – a work of art. By placing hard-boiled eggs in egg-holders on your tables, you will surely create a conversation piece. Use your artistic charm to give each egg an individual design like a spring scene, stripes, or simply the bride and groom’s names. Use glitter pens, markers, or paint to express your thanks to your guests.
Probably one of the most thoughtful of all do-it-yourself wedding favors is also the cheapest. I am talking about written poems. These classy favors simply consist of your poem printed or hand-written on a piece of stiff paper like card stock. Feel free to add a border or other design elements to enhance their appearance. Display these cards in place card holders and you can be sure to please many at your wedding.
Photo frames are terrific wedding favors for any type of wedding whether storybook, beach, Asian, or Disney themed. By giving them a photo frame, they will be able to remember your wedding day often, and how happy it made you. Be sure to include a little message from you and your fiance’ for a personal touch. Happy wedding favor shopping!
