Wedding
favors are thoughtful mementos given
by the newlyweds to their wedding guests as a symbol of gratitude
for sharing their special day. The gesture of giving wedding favors
can be traced back to ancient Rome and has become a lovely custom
in many cultures.
Sugar-coated almonds, or dragées, are traditional
wedding
favors symbolizing the bitterness
and sweetness of married life. Other edible sweets such as a piece
of the groom's cake, cookies and chocolate favors have also been
presented over the years. Today, couples are being more creative
with their selection of wedding
party favors, whether it's for the
reception, the rehearsal dinner or the bridal
shower. Picture frames, candles,
wine stoppers,
cocktail shakers, handmade
sachets, mini vases,
personalized
mint tins, miniature
gift books, seed favors, themed
cookies, holiday
ornaments, and personalized
keepsakes are all popular wedding
favors choices.
Wedding
favors can really be anything. The
important thing is to choose wedding
favors that reflect your personal
style and impart a meaningful message. Wedding favors are often
placed at each wedding reception guest's place setting or elegantly
displayed on a table near the entrance to the wedding reception
venue. Again, we invite you to be different and use your imagination.
We hope you will be inspired by all the unique
wedding favor ideas as well as creative wedding
decoration presentation ideas throughout our website.

Unique
and thoughtful wedding
favors can leave a lasting impression and add a personal touch
to the wedding reception. Many couples are choosing wedding favors
that celebrate their cultural
heritage and reflect their personal style. Wedding
favors that accent a wedding
theme are also extremely popular. Your guests will especially
appreciate wedding favors that they can use and treasure - like
a pair of beautiful chopsticks, a handmade silk sachet favor or
a decorative picture frame. There is tremendous appeal to the idea
that the guests will enjoy the wedding
favors long after the wedding has
passed.
