Dare to be Different with Your Wedding Favors
When you have attended a few weddings, some things seem to rarely change. Beside the marrying procedures being the same, some things like wedding favors seem to stay the same as well. Tired of wedding favors that are wrapped in tulle with a tied ribbon and want something different for your wedding favors? No doubt you are not alone in this venture.
Surprisingly there are many wedding favors to chose from, some affordable and others are bit more costly. Have heart, at any price range, you can avoid the stereotypical mints bundle sitting upon the reception tables. A popular path that many are following in the wedding favors is geared towards eco-friendly wedding favors. What kind of wedding favor can be eco-friendly? Many.
One of the best wedding favors that has been practiced of late is the charitable donation wedding favor. The wedding favor in this case notifies the guest of a monetary donation made in the guest's name to a charity of one choosing. Not only is this a use-able wedding favor it is a worthy one for it gives all involved a great feeling and helps those benefiting from the charity's accomplishments. Another great eco-friendly wedding favor comes as a small planting or personalized seed packets.
This wedding guest gift not only is appreciated by the guest by the Earth benefits from it as well. Small plantings on the reception tables can also provide attractive centerpieces for the tables. Small glycerin soaps wrapped attractively or bamboo coasters are also eco-friendly but are a use-able gift for your wedding guest to enjoy using. Bottle stoppers and bottle openers, may not always be a "green" wedding favor, but they are quite popular with guests attending a wedding. They come in many shapes, designs and themes, making it fit into a specific wedding easy. For an added touch, you could look into personalizing the gifts. Along those lines are salt and pepper shakers.
These can be used for their typical purpose on the eating tables and then be taken home by the guest afterwards. These too can come in many designs and creations. Letter openers, bookmarks, key chains, luggage tags and place card holders can serve as multi-purposes and they too come in many ideas to fit in with any wedding. Also, use-able are personalized food products.
These can be personalized however you wish for it to look and say, as well as what it may be. These personalized food products may come as a package of coffee, tea, drink mix, chocolate candy bars or snack mix. A more permanent remembrance of your special day, but more costly to be sure is personalized glassware - either candle holders or more popular is champagne flutes, tumblers or shot glasses. Really any glass product can be personalized, so you can look for something slightly different to suit your specific tastes.
One more unique wedding favor idea is to have special stationary or sticky notes that relate to the wedding or have the wedding couple's name and wedding date on it. Who doesn't need paper to makes notes on? Hopefully this helped give you some ideas for the out of the ordinary wedding favor.
