Preparing wedding favors for your guests after they attended your wedding ceremony is one of the best ways you can show your appreciation. Not only can you customize them to be as memorable as you would like, but you can literally prepare just about anything. With that being said, there are so many options to choose from that it can become a little overwhelming. Let's narrow down your selection to the Top 5 Wedding Favors trending in 2013.
Personalized coffee mugs make it to the top of the list due to their customization and daily use for any house hold. Put your names, wedding date, initials, location, or something that goes along with your wedding day on the mugs to personalize it. Add a small box of tea, coffee bag, candies, or another small token to fill the cup! These memorable mugs will fill the homes of your guests and keep them talking about the wonderful time they had on your special day.
Hang-Over gift bags have been trending the wedding favor list for the past couple of years and making a big hit in 2013. Get fun medium sized buckets or boxes and wrap a fun banner around the outside for a personal touch. Add a customized bottle of water, a sleeping mask, Tylenol, and maybe a Starbucks gift card to help them through the next day after partying on your wedding night. Your guests will be more than thankful for the thoughtfulness the next day when they wake up!
Bottles of wine always make for a great favor. They are easy to buy in bulk and perfect for customizing the labels! Add a fun wine opener, bottle stopper, or a pair of wine glasses to spice it up. There are a variety of wines to choose from so get a little creative and select a few favorites to narrow down your selection.
Unique bottle openers are small and perfect for wedding favors. You can engrave on them and make them unique to your very special day. Add a little ribbon around the top and put in a cute box and send off with your guests at the end of the night to keep the party going when they get home!
This type of favor took a turn on me when it hit the charts as a top favor idea- donating to charities instead of gifting favors! I thought this was a wonderful idea and apparently so did many others. Pick a one or two charities you want to donate to and let them choose from there. Before your guests prepare to leave, make an announcement and have a table set up for them to donate to throughout the night. This type of favor not only saves you money, but it is very rewarding by paying it forward.
Every bride and groom wants their guests to remember how much fun they had the next day and wedding favors are the perfect token for wrapping up a great night. Whichever wedding favor catches your eye, just remember to make it personal for your guests to show appreciation for their attendance on such a special night. Take time to think about what you and your groom want to offer, set aside a reasonable budget, and let the creative side take control!
