Suggestions for Traditional Wedding Favors

No matter how many popular and new wedding themes there are, a wedding that has a classical or traditional touch is something that is more memorable. Whether in the ceremony or in the reception, a traditional item or activity makes the wedding more elegant and more pulled together.

With wedding favors, there are also a lot of choices and even for someone who has a unique theme for their wedding. Some people still prefer traditional favors because of their appeal and their usability. While there are modern twists on traditional wedding ideas and favors, here are some of the most well-loved traditional wedding favors.

Chocolate and almonds are your top choices should you want to give edible favors. Chocolates can be placed in small boxes (whether bars or small bite size pieces) and the packaging can be can be accessorized with ribbon or laces tied to the box. Almonds, particularly the chocolate coated ones, are generally being given to acknowledge the bittersweet union of the couple.

For decorative and yet practical wedding favors, you may want to go for the traditional wedding bell or photo frame favor. The wedding bell can be used as well during the reception itself because as the guests ring the bell, it is a call for the couple to kiss.

A photo frame favor can be a good decoration and yet be used for practical purposes as well. You can either have a specialized print on the photo frame itself with the wedding details, or you can print it on special paper and place it in the frame. Or you can incorporate your photo as a couple as well.

You can make no mistake in choosing traditional wedding favors – they are well-loved over time and both your male and female guests will love them. Remember that it is indeed sometimes the thought that counts, and even if you do not choose a trendy or an expensive wedding favor, you will still be able to deliver your message of gratitude to your guests. After all, you are thanking them for something that is not equal to money, but rather, their presence and their well wishes. This is what is most important in making your wedding memorable.
