Where to Find Ideas for Wedding Favors

By Juliette Crane

If you are planning your wedding in the near future, don't forget to start organizing your wedding favors as soon as possible. Don't worry if you can't think of anything as there is a whole industry set up supplying treats for guests. This should make things much easier for you and will be one less thing to worry about before the wedding day arrives.

An easy wedding favor option is flowers which really don't take much to arrange but guests can enjoy. The big plus with this option is the ease and speed with which flowers can be organized.

You might consider giving your guests a single red rose as a favor and this is extremely appropriate because a rose is a symbol of love plus roses do not need to be wrapped. Placing the rose on the wedding reception table where the guest are seated is a nice touch and doesn't need to be done until the last minute.

Unfortunately flowers do no appeal to everyone, but with three in every four receptions using candy, this is an easy wedding favor that will. However, there is an even easier way to give candy and also help you to save money on centerpieces. This just needs a large quantity of various candies placed in a large bowl on the middle of the table.

To complete this idea, a small plain bag or carton can be left for each wedding guest to put their candy into. This really is easy because each guest can choose whatever candy they like and there isn't a single piece of wrapping in sight.

Although candy is popular, you may wish to give your guests a picture frame which is longer lasting and more useful. Often when receptions have large guest lists, wrapping wedding favors can seem like a nightmare so needs to be avoided if possible. If you use the frames to hold the place cards however, wrapping will not be necessary.

For those of you that like an easy wedding favor that is a little different then why not use a local photographer, you can have each guest pose for a shot which can be presented to them at the wedding reception. It is a simple matter of bringing a printer along so the images can be printed off during the reception and are ready when the guests start to leave. This is a great idea for a wedding favor because your guests will likely be dressed up and will appreciate the opportunity to pose for a professional photo. Many professional photographers have purchased small digital projectors so there is no reason why you couldn't request one at the reception and this way your guests could see the images that had been taken during the day. - 30299
