with your guests? Coffee wedding favors are a very popular and

coffee favor you can ensure that you are giving your guests
something they will use. Not only will they enjoy using the gift
they will enjoy thinking about the wonderful memories and fun
times they had at the wedding as they sip their wonderful full
bodied flavorful coffee.
Well, if you are already sold on coffee wedding favors then you
will want to read through this article for some easy ideas to
really make unique and outstanding wedding favors.
Coffee- This is the obvious place to start as it will be the
central theme to your wedding favor. You should try and plan the
theme of the wedding first and then select a coffee that goes
along with that theme. For example an easy one would be if you
are getting married in Maui or even having a Hawaiian theme
wedding you will want to use Kona Coffee in your wedding favor
basket. If you have not yet selected a theme for the wedding
another thing you can do is look for a local coffee roaster and
purchase from them. This will give you guests a little taste of
the local area and it supports your local businesses also. Of
course if neither of these easily fit into your wedding and
still do not strike an idea for you a third option would be to
choose your own favorite flavor of coffee. Do you love a certain
blend at your local coffee shop or maybe something fancy from
Starbucks? Well, choose this as your coffee. As forethought you
might want to purchase both regular caffeinated coffee and some
decaffeinated.
Next you will want to add some personal touches and make the
coffee wedding favor really stand out. There are so many ways to
do this but we will give you just a few. These are mostly just
to spark ideas for you that you will hopefully use and alter or
personalize to suit your own needs.
Coffee Packaging - If at all possible it is a very classy to
personalize the favors. You can print a computer label or
purchase from a shop that will do this for you. Putting things
like the Bride and Groom's Name, date and location of the
wedding can be a nice touch. IF you are doing this yourself
adding in the guests name can also be a lot of fun. To easily
make a label you can look around online for free clip art and
then just customize it with your own colors and writing.
Mugs - If you would like to round out the coffee wedding favor
and expand from the basics a little bit more purchasing coffee
mugs can be a quick and easy edition. You can easily purchase
customized mugs to any color you would like. You can also add a
picture easily to custom mugs and have the bride and groom
smiling at everyone as they drink their coffee wedding favor.
Stir Spoons - But a large bunch of plastic spoons and drip them
into melted chocolate. Then wrap these spoons with tulle and add
a beautiful ribbon that matches the colors of the wedding. Now
you are taking the gift from a oh! Nice to a WOW level.
Chocolate Covered Coffee Beans - Another fun addition can be a
personalized bag of chocolate covered coffee beans. These can
easily be purchased in bulk and then put into a tin or bag and
customized with a quick label on the computer.
Chocolates - There are not many coffee drinkers in the world
that would turn down a wonderful elegant chocolate in addition
to their coffee. You do not need to place too many chocolates in
with the coffee but a few high quality chocolates nicely wrapped
with a ribbon can go a long way to add class.
Hot Chocolate - Have a lot of guests with young children coming
to the wedding? If so you might want to include some fun hot
chocolate with the favor and this way the children can join in
on the fun also!
Teas - If you are worried about those non-coffee drinkers out
there are there are always a few you can appease this crowd by
placing a nice tea or some tea bags in with the gift.

purchased in bulk in a wide variety of colors and finding one
that matches the colors of the wedding and again making tins of
them can be a fun addition to the coffee wedding favor.
