Weddings: Wedding Favors
Apr 25th, 2008
Planning a wedding can be fun, stressful, but fun at the same time and one of the more interesting aspects is organizing the wedding favors. As a rule of thumb when organizing events, keep things simple as they have a habit of becoming complicated without any human intervention. With this in mind, it should be one less item you have to worry about for your big day because your favors might just be a phone call away.
One option for an easy wedding favor, especially popular with the ladies is flowers. The preparation for flowers is almost non existent other than deciding on what flowers to use which can be ordered reasonably close to the big day.
Red roses always look attractive and of course they don’t have to be wrapped like many other flowers. Using a single rose per guest gives an appearance of style and placing them can be left to staff immediately prior to the wedding reception commencing so they look very fresh.
About 75 percent of people will use candy as it is an easy wedding favor that always pleases which can be simply presented in a box. I like the idea that a number of receptions have started to use where the costly centerpiece is done away with completely. This can be accomplished by using large bowls filled with different types of candy as the centerpieces on each table.
You can then provide each wedding guest with a small bag and a note encouraging them to enjoy the candy in the centerpiece. Of course this means that you won’t have to wrap anything yourself but it should get the thumbs up from everyone.
An alternative to using candy is a picture frame which can double up as a place holder just for the occasion. Although presentation is everything, there are ways around wrapping wedding favors and picture frames are an ideal example of how you can avoid this task. By using the picture frames as placeholders provides a way around this, making it a gift that does not need to be wrapped.
For those of you that like an easy wedding favor that is a little different then why not use a local photographer, you can have each guest pose for a shot which can be presented to them at the wedding reception. If he brings along a printer you can distribute the photos before your guests begin to leave the reception. Everyone will appreciate this wedding favor as it is a reminder they can cherish for many years. Many photographers will also have a projector so could arrange a looping slide show of all the photos he had taken of the guests.
