Inspired Favors


You have the groom, the dress, the location, and the flowers but how are you going to show appreciation to your wedding guests for attending the most memorable day of your life? The most popular way to show your guests thanks is a wedding favor waiting for them to take home after your reception.

Coming up with the perfect wedding favor for your guests can become a tedious task. You want, as any bride does, for your favor to be fabulous, memorable, and stand out from all the past wedding favors your guests may have received. Below are some wonderful tips to consider when choosing your perfect fabulous favors:

1. Consider your location
If you are having an outdoor reception you do not want to have chocolates melting as they sit in the heat. If you are having your wedding on the beach consider sending home seashell inspired favors such as a thank you message in a bottle.

2. Consider your couple history
Think about how you met. Did you meet at a football game? Let your family and friends enjoy your history as a couple along with you. Send them home with football inspired monogrammed favors.

3. Consider what you love
Are you both chocolate lovers? If so, consider setting up a candy bar at your reception complete with decorative boxes for your guests to take their candy selections home.
