Seven Wedding Favors That’ll Be Appreciated

Wedding favors are one of these additions to a wedding that aren’t often given much thought. They’re the equivalent of a party bag at a kid’s party and while it’s a nice offering to provide, it’s not always affordable.

There are, of course, some great wedding favors that don’t need to cost the earth. You’ll have likely spent a fortune already on the wedding, so having to make any more big purchases for your guests might not be something you’re able to do.

Here are several wedding favors that’ll be appreciated by your wedding guests and that will be money well spent, rather than it being something that gets thrown away or forgotten about at the tables.

Bottle openers

Who doesn’t need another bottle opener for their home? It’s one of those things that can often be forgotten about when it comes to having them in the home. Whether one of your guests has thrown one out recently due to it breaking, or perhaps they’ve lost all the ones they had in the home.

Bottle openers are also great for guests because they can be kept on their person, especially if they are someone who likes to carry around useful accessories in their bag or in their coat pocket. 

Bottle openers are something that always comes in handy and are often the thing that most people will need when on a night out or perhaps continuing the afterparty at the wedding when the bar closes.

Personalized shot glasses

If you’re looking for something that will always make your wedding guests remember the epicness of your wedding then get personalized shot glasses. These are great to present as a wedding favor emptied or filled. Of course, a filled shot glass will be more appreciated but it can definitely be a great addition regardless.

Shot glasses might not always be the go-to glassware to get out at home but they can provide plenty of enjoyment for those who may use it on occasion. Getting it personalized adds something special to this wedding favor and will forever serve as a reminder of the day. Whether that’s a reminder of a great night or a hangover they’d rather forget about.

Custom shot glasses are pretty special and are particularly suited for wedding guests who are up for a party until the early hours of the morning.

Succulents

Succulents are a wonderful choice for wedding favors and will certainly be appreciated by most guests. First of all, they’re a hard plant to kill and so need very little in the way of attention. It’s a worthwhile wedding favor because it’s something that will be welcomed in the home. It’s a piece of home decor that isn’t odd and will likely match everyone’s home aesthetic.

These succulents are certainly ideal when it comes to wedding favors because you can often get them in sets, rather than needing to purchase them individually. That makes for ease of purchase and hopefully, you won’t need to spend an absolute fortune either.

Luggage Tags

Another great reminder of the wedding day through the use of wedding favors is luggage tags. While not everyone will be jetting off to somewhere sunny soon, it’s definitely something that will be appreciated. 

Luggage tags are often the identifier of your baggage when you go abroad. It’s important that you use something like a luggage tag so that it makes spotting your baggage easier, as well as having some form of contact details on the luggage in case it got lost in transit.

There have likely been a number of individuals who have had this happen to them, so they may be extra appreciative of you on the day of your wedding for such a thoughtful favor. These are also something you can get at an affordable cost and you may want to consider personalizing them too.

Mini bottles of alcohol

While you don’t want to promote irresponsible drinking, it’s always a good idea to provide a mini bottle of alcohol as your wedding favor. It’s definitely one of those party favors that always goes down well, especially if you get the alcohol type right. 

It may be worth mixing this up from one guest to another. Also, a good way to understand who likes what is to ask your wedding guests what their favorite spirit or drink is. That way, you can plan ahead and provide all of the mini bottles of alcohol required for the day ahead.

It’s a brilliant idea and if you have the budget to stretch, then you could always accompany the little bottle of alcohol with the shot glass. After all, it might be a bottle that can be shot!

Homemade soaps or candles

For those with the annoying talent of being good at crafts, you could always consider a homemade soap or candle as the wedding favor contribution. These can be made really affordable, especially as you’re making them in bulk. Not only that but they’re a lot more personable than anything you can just buy off the internet.

You’ve got a bit more personal control over what ingredients you add to the soap or candle, which makes it even more of a personal choice for wedding favors such as these ones.

Temporary tattoos

While they might not be the best choice for everyone, a temporary tattoo is always good fun. It throws it back for the adults to be like kids again, and for the kids to be just that – kids!

Temporary tattoos are a cheap and effective way to gift every one of your wedding guests without needing to spend much. They are certainly great for those who didn’t want to do much in the way of temporary tattoos either.

Wedding favors are something to consider for your wedding, even if you hadn’t planned on doing any. It’s a little gift that goes a long way if picked accordingly and specifically for your wedding guests in question. Use these ideas to perhaps gift your loved ones a wedding favor.
