Your Wedding Favors By: Suta

Although wedding favors may not be the highlight of the wedding, they are a detail which requires some thought and planning. Ideas for treats are generally plentiful so there are bound to be enough to suit your budget and taste. 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.

Flowers are undoubtedly one easy wedding favor you can give to your guests. Owing to the nature of flowers, they can usually be left until later in the preparations which means the bride and groom will have less to worry about.

A popular choice is a red rose and as a symbol of love which is very fitting at a reception. 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.

Although candy might be an easy wedding favor, it is immensely popular and with almost three out of every four weddings using it, often placed in a specially designed box. A simpler but possibly more interesting method is to present the candy that does away with expensive centerpieces altogether. 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. 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. 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. For this to work you need to make things simple so why not save having to wrap the gifts by using them as placeholders; and who would anyone blame you?

One final idea for a very easy wedding favor is to give each guest a digital photo of themselves at the reception by hiring a photographer to take a picture of each couple as they arrive at the wedding reception. It is a simple matter of bringing a printer along so the images can be printed off during the reception and are ready when the guests start to leave. An unusual but pleasant wedding favor is presenting each guest with a professional photograph of them arriving at the wedding. It would also be nice if the photographer could bring along a digital projector so all the photos he had taken of the guests could then be shown on a screen during the reception meal.
