How to Choose the Right Wedding Favors

An easy wedding favor option is flowers which really don't take much to arrange but guests can enjoy. Owing to the nature of flowers, they can usually be left until later in the preparations which means the bride and groom will have less to worry about.

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.

Supplying each wedding guest with a small tin or other presentation container so they can fill it with whatever candy they wish. This could be called a self service gift because all you have to do is supply the candy and something to place it in.

Pictures frames can also work well especially if they are used as place card holders. If you intend to use picture frames as your wedding favors there is a way that you can present them to your guests without have to wrap them! However, by using the picture frames to hold the place cards, you do not have to worry about wrapping them for your guests.

An easy wedding favor that might appeal is to have the photographer take a digital picture of each guest and then present it to them at the wedding reception as they arrive. The photos can be printed out whilst the reception goes on and the guests will have a pleasant surprise at the end of the evening when they leave as their photo will be waiting for them. If you are really stuck for a wedding favor idea, why not ask the photographer to take a picture of people as they arrive, to be presented later at the reception. Many photographers will also have a projector so could arrange a looping slide show of all the photos he had taken of the guests.
