Themed personal bridal and wedding party favors
Tying wedding party favors to a theme can make choosing wedding
favors easier.
Picking the perfect wedding party favors can be a difficult
task, but it doesn't have to be. You know that the wedding party
favors are important because they express your appreciation to
your guests for coming to your wedding. These reception favors
are just a little gift that lets your guests know they are
important to you. To make choosing these important items easier
you can implement a theme that will help you narrow down the
never-ending list of favor choices. When these guest favors are
tied to a theme it is very easy to pick the out.
Wedding party favors that are tied to the overall theme of the
wedding are one way to go. You may not have a specific theme,
but think about the other aspects of your wedding - Are things
elegant? romantic? traditional? When you can identify what angle
you are going it is then simple to choose good favors. For an
elegant wedding you might choose mini wine glasses coupled with
a mini bottle of wine. A romantic favor could be a chocolate
rose set in a small vase.
The traditional favor is along the lines of placecard holders or
candles. Tying your wedding party favors to your wedding theme
will allow you to choose unique wedding favors that fit in with
the atmosphere you've created.
Some couples may like to express their personalities through
their wedding favors. For the golfer you could offer wedding
golf tees with chocolate golf balls. The more daring bride and
groom may wish to provide temporary tattoos that showcase your
names and wedding date. Poker enthusiasts can offer mini decks
of cards. Another way to go is to write poems or favorite quotes
on colored paper, roll it up and secure with a fake, plastic
wedding ring.
Tying your wedding party favors to your personalities makes the
favors seem more personal to your guests. Another popular method
of choosing wedding party favors is to include them as part of
the wedding or bridal shower reception decorations. You can have
a breakaway centerpiece, which is a centerpiece made up of
smaller pieces that can be easily taken by the guests at the end
of the reception. These centerpieces usually are small wrapped
gifts, candles or mini vases with flowers.
You can use your own creative flair to put together nice
centerpieces. Mini salt and pepper shakers can be provided for
each guest to use during the dinner and then take home. If you
are looking to preserve table space you can wrap the gifts and
hang them with ribbons on the chairs. Using favors as part of
the decorations will help you to save time and money. Tying your
unique wedding favors into your wedding decor helps to keep
things united and make it easier for you.
There are many different items to choose from, so if you have
some sort of wedding plan before shopping it will save large
amounts of time. Remember that this is your gift to your party
guests and it should be nice, but that doesn't mean you have to
spend forever choosing them.
