Favors... It's the little things that count!

The Knot has some great ideas on what you could give as favors. They are all very original and it's all about how you present you ideas to your guests. There's one thing that is for sure, favors should have a personalized aspect to it, and reflect the personalities of the bride & groom.

Below are some of my favorites:




























Straw Fan: For destination weddings I love the Fan, it was picked as a Knot pick as well!! It's a perfect way to say thank you to your guests with a personalized note. You could be sure that they will be using it through out the day.... looks great in pictures too. :)


Candy Buffet: Treat your guests to a candy buffet that reflects your color scheme. You could have various shaped vased filled with goodies such as chocolate-covered pretzels, sugar candy, truffles, M&Ms, jelly beans, lollipops, and anything else that your heart desires :) We did a candy buffet for a destination wedding in Montreal and the guests loved it...It was a huge hit.


Wine bottles: For those couple that appreciate a good wine, could add a personalized label on the bottle giving it to their guests a a symbol of their love ... the older it gets, the better it is :) This concept could be applied to a bottle of water and be handed out to guests for an outdoor ceremony... you're sure your guests will appreciate a nice cold bottle of water while sitting in the heat.


Cigars: This is something that every man at your party is sure to love!!! It could be a great gift for the rehearsal dinner, or could also be a great accompanying gift to the wine bottle... If you are having a destination wedding, you could search to find a local cigar brand that could bring a local flavor to your wedding.
