What You Need in Wedding Favor Packaging

Every detail in a wedding should be as special as you can possibly make them. If it is a first class event, everything should be first class all the way. This also applies to the packaging of your wedding favors as well. Unlike the usual gift wrappings, wedding favors are small gifts or tokens but the way they are wrapped and even the way they are presented are totally different from the usual gift-giving.

Firstly, considering the size, the material and the type of favor, your packaging should be composed of all or any of the following:

The main packaging should be a favor bag or box. Typical favors that are placed in boxes are jewelry boxes, coasters, and key chains. On the other hand, you can use small favor bags for chocolates, almonds, or soaps. For some, such as soaps or nuts, you can use boxes or bags interchangeably. You can make your own favor bags or boxes using regular materials such as fabric or regular cardboard.

For a softer appeal, use ribbons or lace to tie the bags. You can use ordinary ribbons or have the ribbons printed with the details of your wedding such as date and venue. Choose a color that is on the same shade as your color motif or one that will complement it.

One of the most popular wedding ideas for favors is to use favor labels to make your favors personalized. You can put a special quote or just simply your names on them, whether on mini cards, hang tags, or sticker labels. For boxed favors, it is best to use mini cards. For bagged favors, choose hang tags tied along with the ribbon. And for favors that are presented by themselves, use sticker labels or hang tags.

If you want a little extra in your packaging, you can add charms or embellishments on them. You can have small heart pendants tied on the ribbon as you finish your packaging. Use beads to accentuate your bag packaging or use glitter around the borders for the text on the mini cards.

No matter what your wedding favors are, it is important that you put special thought into choosing them and the packaging that you will use. Even if you have a great wedding favor, but do not have a good packaging to complement it, it may not have the same effect or it may just look sloppy. Make an impressive wedding favor by having impressive wedding favor packaging, whether personally made or ordered in stores.
