It is often the case that the simplest part of something, often takes the longest to arrange; wedding favors can be one of those. Don’t worry if you can’t think of anything as there is a whole industry set up supplying treats for guests. This is important because it can take a great deal of stress when you realize the big event is rapidly approaching and these haven’t been organized.
An easy wedding favor option is flowers which really don’t take much to arrange but guests can enjoy. There is virtually no preparation involved in this and depending on how many guests you have you may not have to order them well in advance.
Many people who choose flowers decide on a single red rose for each guest as a symbol of their love. You can simply purchase one for each guest and have a member of the catering staff, a friend or family member place one rose across each place setting after the tables have been set for the wedding reception.
These days the favorite is using candy and almost three quarters of events will use this as an easy wedding favor which can be enhanced by using a presentation tin. I like the idea that a number of receptions have started to use where the costly centerpiece is done away with completely. Now, how simple is a large glass bowl filled with candy going to be in the centre of the table?
Each wedding guest can then have a small bag or box to place their favorite candy in to eat when they like. This really is easy because each guest can choose whatever candy they like and there isn’t a single piece of wrapping in sight.
Pictures frames can also work well especially if they are used as place card holders. This is a good idea but wrapping this type of wedding favor can put many people off especially when there are a large number of guests. If you use the frames to hold the place cards however, wrapping will not be necessary.
An easy wedding favor that might appeal is to have the photographer take a digital picture of each guest and then present it to them at the wedding reception as they arrive. If he brings along a printer you can distribute the photos before your guests begin to leave the reception. It is a nice gift and a wedding favor your guests will appreciate when they leave with a photo of how they looked on your wedding day. If the photographer can arrange a slide show, the guests not only get a personal memento but they also get the opportunity to see how the photos turned out for all of the other guests as well.
