Make Your Wedding Favors Extra Special

Weddings are made more special when the couple puts their own personality and style into the wedding. But sometimes even if this seems to be the case already, couples fall into the trap of being all too traditional and in the process, some aspects of their wedding becomes ordinary.

For wedding favors, this need not happen as there are ways on how you can make your wedding favor go beyond the usual. Here are some suggestions on how you can turn an ordinary wedding favor into something extra special.

If your hometown or the wedding venue offers unique items or delicacies, why not give these items as wedding favors? Especially if you have a destination wedding, giving chilies, a small bottle of authentic salsa dip, or a Mexican hat when having a Mexican wedding will truly be unique. You and your guests have traveled far already to make your wedding special so complement these by giving wedding favors that are hard to find. Or pineapple jams and decorative mini surf boards for a beach or Hawaiian wedding can make your wedding truly memorable.

Not your ordinary wedding favors, elegant and classy wedding favors such as crystals, porcelain jewelry boxes or half bottles of liquor makes for wedding favors that are rarely received. You can personalize these by purchasing the ones that are the same as your color motif or in another complementary shade.

If you have a baseball inspired wedding, complement its uniqueness and fun not by giving the same old bookmark or paperweight favor but by giving a baseball inspired favor as well, such as baseball cut cookies or wine stoppers with the shape of a baseball bat. You can come up with so many unique wedding favor ideas simply by coordinating it with your wedding theme.

Placing your favor in special boxes or putting personalized hang tags can make an ordinary favor look special. Pay attention not just to the main favor but also to the packaging to make a unique wedding statement.

Wedding favors may just be small items but they carry with them a big appreciation for the guests. If you want a wedding that is truly is special in every way, do not alter the mood by giving ordinary favors that your guests might forget as soon as they get home.
Prepare special favors – whether practical or edible – because what’s important is that your guests feel that you have placed time and effort as well in giving them the favors, as much as they have put time and effort as well in making your wedding memorable.
