Themed Wedding Favor Ideas

yhst-96972159295690_2105_94623535.gif There’s nothing like a carefully selected theme to make your wedding day unique and memorable. A wedding theme should ideally tell your guests something about the two of you – that’s what makes it unique! If you share a love for travel, maybe a travel themed wedding would be right for you. Or maybe you met on the beach, so a beach themed wedding could be a perfect option. Once you’ve decided on your theme, make sure all elements of your wedding ceremony reflect it, including the wedding favors.

If you are at a loss for theme and favor ideas, a good way to get going is by thinking about motifs that express the theme.

For instance, if you are having an Asian theme wedding, there are great Asian keepsakes available with designs that evoke Asia. Readily recognizable symbols from the Far East include fortune cookies, chopsticks, and take-out boxes; there are a lot of beautiful favors available with these designs.

The good news is that no matter what your theme is, you can find unique items to match it. There really are so many to choose from, the sky is the limit! If you’re having a beach wedding, you may want to consider favors with designs that evoke memories of a vacation by the sea.

You should get creative and use your imagination to come up with ideas. If you’re having a certain flower as your wedding theme, look for candy holders, place card holders, candles, tea lights and candies that are designed in the shape of that flower. If you both love tennis, then a tennis-themed wedding with stirrers shaped like tennis rackets could make great favors. If you’re having a wedding during the holidays, you may want to check out favors with bells and holly wreaths or keepsakes with pastel and Easter colors. And if you’ve had a fairytale romance, what could be better than a fairytale themed wedding with a pumpkin carriage place card holder? The key to ensuring that your guests love their favors is to pick ones that are elegant, useful, and match your overall theme.
