Wedding favours!

View quoted message Hi Vanny, I ordered them online from candywrappers.com! I was specifically looking for dark chocolate so had to order from the US for some reason, but there are Canadian sites available too if you want milk chocolate! So many designs to choose from too!

View quoted message What!!!! That's awesome I love it! Where do you get the customized chocolate bar wrappers from?

We are doing custom wrapped dark chocolate bars.
i adore the way they turned out and the “ingredients list” on the back is just so cute!

ordered some extras for us to have later too!

There are many versions to consider when doing favours. I know you have gotten many views on this and deciding which direction to go. Breaking down some of the ways you can look at the possibilities:

1. Edibles: candy or chocolates for guests to take home or enjoy right after dinner, whichever they decide to do.

2. Seeds: plants or flowers that are desirable to give away with tag (name and date).

3. Centerpieces: florists that have put together for you based on budget and having a game that can determine who gets to take it home for every table.

4. Usable gifts: This can vary based on you two and what you feel is the feel of your outlook of the day, venue or style.

Our choice was a usable gift that most would have used for tealight candles. Here is the picture to show.

We are doing mint boxes ( says Mint to be ) and small Cinderella candles

One idea I love for favours for the guests is some of the couples favourite coffee!

View quoted message Awwww that's amazing!!!!

We’re skipping the wedding favours and doing a donation to cancer care in everyone’s name ! Someone did it at a wedding we were at and I thought it was an awesome idea!

Oh I love that!

We are doing mini bottles of olive oil from a local italian store.

View quoted message Omg hahaha that's the cutest

I’m thinking of doing whoopie pies wrapped. And a tag that says whoopie, we’re married and the date .

View quoted message Hahahaha right? If we choose with something edible I'll gladly take whoever didn't take theirs! Even the wedding cake I will gladly take the remaining home! I love the kisses idea

View quoted message Ours are handmade planters with succulents planted in them. So we thought what are we going to do with 15 of these things? Haha

We made little bags with about 6 hershey kisses in them and I handmade labels that say "hugs and kisses from the mr. and mrs." and if anyone leaves them at the reception I will GLADLY eat all the chocolate myself haha!

View quoted message Wow that's awesome! Thank you!!!

View quoted message Yum macaroons! We were thinking of doing those!

View quoted message Nice idea!

View quoted message Nice!!!!!!

View quoted message Oh that's smart I didn't even think of the centre pieces!!!

We're doing 2 things: a bottle opener (non-personalized) for each couple/household/single guest and a box of candy for each guest. I like having something practical and if have non-personalized bottle openers, we can sell the ones left over. My FH loves candy/edible favours, so we are pairing it with a box of candy!

View quoted message Thank you!!!!

View quoted message Omg smores kits that's a good idea

View quoted message Ouu nice idea!

We are having cupcakes as our favours. Our meal comes with desert and we are not huge fans of cake, so we are having a small cake and cupcakes later at night. We had thought about smores kits as we are avid campers and the wedding is in October.

View quoted message We did this too!

I personally am not doing favours as I've heard most times no one takes them home. But we did put take me home tags on the centerpieces. And also we have a huge dessert table. But my cousins did little engraved candle holders made of wood. They made them themselves and were really pretty. I ended up grabbing a few that other guests left behind.

We did Botanical Paperworks. It is biodegradable seed paper that grows wildflowers or herbs. They have favours for as low as .99 each. We splurged a little a bought ones for $1.30 each when they were having a 20% off sale. You can personalize them as well. The one picture her is the .99 one. If you like this idea check out their website. They are easy and friendly and have quick delivery. Good luck!

Macaroons are always a good choice. I would be happy with anything I could eat

We did tree saplings - super cute. Ordered them from Evergreen Memories. Good luck with planning!

We are giving tree saplings. So if they aren't all taken after the event we aren't stuck with 50 bottle openers with our names on them lol. We can just plant the trees left behind

We’re also doing edible, Lindt truffles. We have a Lindt store in town and we’re able to get a wrapper that exactly matches our wedding colours.
