Jordan almonds. The bitterness of the almond in a candy coating represents the bittersweet nature of marriage. Wrap almonds in tulle, a pretty gift box, or gift bag (wedding favors packaging).
A slice of the groom's cake. It is said for ladies that stowing a piece of the groom's cake beneath your pillow when sleeping will cause you to dream of your future groom-to-be. The cake can be wrapped gift boxes and stacked on a platter for the guests to take as they leave the reception.
Silver place card frame. These favors pull double-duty, first displaying name cards showing guests to their seats, and later serving as a picture frame for their homes. A simple silver heart, or beaded frame will never go out of style, and will appeal to everyone's tastes (silver heart shaped picture frames).
Single truffle. To ensure that your favors will be taken home and enjoyed, give your guests a single, fancy truffle. Perhaps from a renowned chocolatier in your region, or your personal favorite. Wrap in a clean, white box and tie with ribbons the colors of your wedding (midori organdy ribbon).
Ringing bells. Let the clear, crisp sound of silver bells initiate a kiss between the newly married couple. Bells with clips on top also hold place cards (wedding bell place card holder).
Inscribed book of poetry, or literature. Have your favorite poem, or a significant verse printed on fancy paper and bound into a book. Inscribe your names and the wedding date on the cover. This will make a particularly meaningful favor.
Ornaments. A single, classy ornament, especially for weddings near the holiday season will remind your guests of the part they played in your special day.
