Wedding season is officially in full swing with couples around the country celebrating their nuptials. Although the day should be about the bride and groom, it’s also important to make your guests feel special. Wedding favours are the perfect way to say thank you, and to make extra sure that you spend your precious budget on gifts that your guests will actually want to take home, here are some ideas:

For a rustic wedding…

Miniature plants make a great little gift and will even add a bit of colour to your tables. Whether you opt for sweet succulent or a small bag of seeds for your guests to take home and grow themselves, it’s a more affordable, and environmentally friendly choice of favour.

A small jar of your favourite jam is another great idea for a wedding in the countryside. For an added touch, stick on a pretty label or tie a tag around the lid with a thank you note. (Our personalised cards are also perfect to use – browse here!)

For a posh do…

If you have a taste for the finer things in life, mini bottles of your favourite bubbly or spirits are a great gift option. Just make sure our guests take them home to enjoy!

Not got a preferred tipple? No one can ever have enough candles! Choose a colour that matches your theme and a selection of scents that you enjoy – they’re sure to make the reception room smell lovely too.

For a family affair…

Rather than opting for a tiny piece of wedding cake, set up a giant sweet table where guests can help themselves. You can even put out some pretty gift bags and they can also take some treats home to enjoy.

To make sure you don’t miss a thing at your reception, place disposable cameras on all the tables and ask guests to take photos throughout the evening. This will ensure you have a huge collection of fun photos as well as the professional ones to remember the day by.

Alternative favour…

If you’d prefer to do something completely different, put a little plate on each table with a note telling your guests that instead of favours you’d like to collect money to donate to a charity that is close to your heart.
