The Great Wedding Favors Debate
There’s been some chatter in the blogosphere lately about the necessity of wedding favors. Sadly, some folks seem to consider favors the most expendable item on the wedding checklist. Wedding favors are supposed to be tokens of “thanks” to your guests. Certainly, the choice is yours and if you have a small budget where favors just don’t fit, you need to do what makes you comfortable. But for those who dismiss wedding favors simply because they think favors are meaningless trinkets, we believe you just haven’t found the right favors!
At Beau-coup we encourage our brides to think about their favors as a way share something about themselves with their friends and family. Whether the favors reflect the story of how the couple met, express a shared passion or illustrate the couple’s unique style. When it showcases their personalities and comes from the heart, a thoughtful favor is never a waste.
Consider these fitting favor selections by some of our brides:
“We met at a candy store. We both went for the peach rings and the rest is history. We’re going to fill these mini candy dispensers with peach rings!”
“Well, we met on Match.com.so these match pen key rings are absolutely perfect!”
“We’re from Texas and we love Texas barbeque! The personalized barbecue sauce is so us.”
The key is to think about your story and figure out what piece you want to share. With a little creativity, the chances of finding a hit are definitely in your favor!
