Heartwarming Favors for A Winter Wedding

Weddings during Christmas can give a bride a plethora of options when it comes to invitation design, reception menu, reception music, and even wedding favors. The traditional wedding colors of red, green, white and gold, are enough to make any wedding colorful and fun.

While there are generally a lot of good options when it comes to wedding favors even during regular season,
winter wedding favors are easy to come up with as the colors associated with Christmas are already given, and so are the images and designs as well. Santa, snowman, reindeer, star, and snowflakes - they are easily recognizable as Christmas favors. Here are some options for winter wedding favors that are sure to bring smiles and warm the heart.

Paperweight and candles are available in different shapes such as snowman, gingerbread or Santa Claus. The paperweights usually are made of crystal but may be incorporated with shades of red, green or gold. The candles can come in solid Christmas colors or may be in combined colors.

You can also have bookmarks and keychains printed with Santa’s hat, snowflakes or the Christmas star.

Christmas tree ornaments are a fool-proof favor as well. You can have Christmas tree balls printed with your names and embellished with glitter. You can give away mini-Santa costumes with your wedding details printed on them.

Time for sweets! Chocolates abound during Christmas and you give them as well as winter wedding favors. You can give full bars of chocolate or the mini bars. You can give chocolate cupcakes or chocolate covered almonds. The possibilities are endless.

Candy canes are truly unique as they are far different from the traditional wedding favors. To satisfy more your sweet tooth, candied fruits will prove to be a different take from the usual edible wedding favors. Everyone loves cookies and cookies shaped as gingerbread men or Santa’s hat are a great choice as winter wedding favors.

You have many options for the packaging as well. You can use Christmas stockings, organza bags, mini boxes or you can just simply tie a ribbon or lace around your wedding favor and put a favor label. Best if the ribbon you are using is printed with your wedding details so you need not to use a hang tag, sticker label, or mini card. It can make your favor look elegant and it can save you on cost as well.

Maybe the toughest challenge for you is to finalize the design that you will be using. You can use snowflake design for more elegance, or choose favors in the shape of Santa’s hat for fun favors.
