Creative and Memorable Wedding Favours Your Guests Will Love
Choosing the perfect wedding favour can be just as important as picking out your flowers or wedding cake. While it may seem like a small detail, wedding favours offer a sweet way to thank your guests for sharing your special day. Whether you’re looking for something traditional or more creative, the right favour can leave a lasting impression. Here are some unique wedding favour ideas that will stand out and make your celebration even more memorable.
1. Personalised Mini Bottles of Wine or Champagne
What better way to celebrate your big day than with a mini bottle of wine or champagne? Personalise the labels with your names, wedding date, or a meaningful quote to make it even more special. These little bottles can be enjoyed immediately or saved for a special occasion in the future.
2. DIY Cookie or Jam Jars
Create something sweet and personal with a DIY touch. Consider giving your guests homemade cookies or jams, beautifully packaged in small jars. You can even add a handwritten note with the recipe or a heartfelt thank-you message. This favour is perfect for couples who want to give something both tasty and thoughtful.
3. Custom Candles
Candles are a classic wedding favour that never goes out of style. You can add a personal touch by choosing a scent that holds special meaning for you as a couple, like the smell of your wedding flowers or a scent from your honeymoon destination. Opt for elegant packaging with custom labels to make the candles feel even more special.
4. Succulent Plants
Succulents are a modern and eco-friendly option that your guests will appreciate. These low-maintenance plants can be potted in tiny containers, such as mason jars or ceramic pots, and decorated with ribbons or custom tags. Plus, they serve as a lasting reminder of your wedding that your guests can continue to care for long after the event.
5. Customised Wedding Fans
If you’re hosting a summer wedding, personalised fans can be both practical and stylish. They’ll help keep your guests cool during the ceremony and can double as a lovely keepsake. Customise them with your names, wedding date, or a cute design that reflects your wedding theme.
6. Handmade Soap
Indulge your guests with luxurious handmade soap as a unique wedding favor. You can choose natural ingredients and scents that reflect the season or the theme of your wedding. Wrap them in beautiful packaging or place them in elegant boxes tied with a ribbon for that extra touch.
7. Miniature Potted Herb Plants
For couples who love cooking or gardening, miniature herb plants like basil, rosemary, or thyme make great wedding favors. Not only are they practical for the home, but they also add a rustic touch to your celebration. Personalise the pots with tags or small wooden markers for a more personalised look.
8. Personalised Playing Cards
A fun and interactive wedding favour, personalised playing cards are great for guests to take home and use with family and friends. Add a photo of you and your partner, a funny quote, or your wedding date to the cards to make them one-of-a-kind. These favours are ideal for game-loving couples!
9. Homemade Scented Sachets
Keep your guests smelling fresh with homemade scented sachets filled with dried flowers like lavender or rose petals. You can make them yourself or purchase them from local artisans. The sachets can be placed inside their luggage or used in their homes for a lovely, fragrant touch.
10. Personalised Tea Blends
If you’re a tea lover, why not share your passion with your guests? Create a custom tea blend that reflects your favourite flavours or a blend that has significance to your relationship. Package them in decorative tea bags or jars, and include a cute note telling your guests about the blend’s inspiration.
11. Eco-Friendly Favours
As sustainability becomes increasingly important, eco-friendly wedding favors are a fantastic way to give back to the planet. Choose biodegradable items such as seed packets, plantable paper with wildflowers, or reusable shopping bags. Guests will appreciate that your favor not only has sentimental value but also a positive impact on the environment.
12. Vintage-Inspired Trinkets
For couples who love all things vintage, consider offering trinkets such as antique keys, miniature books, or tiny compasses. These nostalgic gifts will evoke a sense of timelessness and make for charming keepsakes. Plus, they’re great conversation starters!
13. Gourmet Chocolates
If your guests have a sweet tooth, opt for high-quality chocolates or truffles. You can even personalize the chocolates with your initials or a special design on the wrapper. Place them in elegant boxes or bags and tie them with a pretty ribbon for that extra touch of sophistication.
14. Customized Luggage Tags
For a travel-loving couple, customized luggage tags can be the perfect wedding favor. Not only are they useful, but they also serve as a reminder of your special day every time they go on a trip. Opt for durable leather or eco-friendly materials, and personalize them with your wedding logo, names, or destination wedding location.
15. Photo Booth Polaroids
Capture the fun and memories of your wedding day with photo booth Polaroids. Set up a photo booth during your reception and print out photos for guests to take home as favors. It’s a fun and interactive way to engage your guests and leave them with a keepsake from your wedding.
