Leave your guests with creative wedding favors and they will always remember your special day. If you need to save money while panning your wedding, consider making homemade favors. It is fun and will show your guests something interesting about you.
Consider making music CDs as favors. A box of blank CDs is inexpensive and labels are easy to make. Create a song list of your favorite tunes and transfer them on to the CDs. Be sure to include your first dance in the mix!
If friends know you as a “Foodie” give them a gift from your kitchen. Make a large batch of jam, preserves, herb infused olive oil, or salsa and can small portions into jars. Use labels and ribbons to decorate the jars. Guests will be sure to use the gift and remember your wedding with each yummy bite.
An interesting mix of tea bags arranged in vintage teacups can make a beautiful and elegant favor. Gather the bridesmaids and head to a few thrift shops to look for old teacups in various patterns. Many second hand shops sell individual cups for mere cents! Arrange tea bags inside and attach cute labels to the handle and you will have a pretty and practical gift.
For the garden loving couple, make favors that can be planted. Make a little bag of fabric that contains flower seeds. Tie the bag together with ribbon or twine and make a label with planting directions.
Another option for garden-themed favors is a small pot of flowers or bulbs. Adorn small pots with ribbon or use wedding color paints to decorate. Fill the pots with a flowering bulb or a small plant from a six pack of annuals.
Creative wedding favors are easy to prepare and fun to make. Your guests will really enjoy these gifts and remember your day with them. If you show your personality and interests through the type of favor you select, assembling them will be fun rather than “work.” Enjoy!
