Your guests have taken the time to attend your wedding, buy you gifts and support you on your big day, so shouldn’t you return the favor? Absolutely!
Wedding favors are among the many trends that have been around for decades, and they certainly are a great way to show your guests that you appreciate them attending your celebration. However, with the multitude of options available to choose as your favors, you definitely have a big decision on your hands. You will be choosing the one item that you feel each and every one of your guests will enjoy, so the decision is of utmost importance.
As you make decisions for your wedding, take into consideration the opinions of your guests, seeing as these are you relatives and friends, you should have a very good idea of what everyone’s interests are. One thing to keep in mind is that everyone eats, so edible wedding favors are certainly something that all of your guests can enjoy. Mountain House on Sunday River has gathered some of the top edible wedding favors for you to explore, so be sure to continue reading for some inspiration:
- Jams. Offered in a variety of flavors, jams (especially homemade) are certainly a great option for wedding favors. From strawberry to raspberry and everything in between, you can offer an array of options so your guests will definitely be able to find a flavor that suits their taste buds. Place your delicious creations in little glass jars and allow your guests to enjoy this scrumptious favor.
- Cake pops. Someone has created a cake and lollipop fusion, and it is delicious! Their appearance alone can adhere to any wedding theme chosen. Choose any flavor of cake you like, or multiple different flavors, place them on fun sticks which can come in various colors or designs and then decorate them to incorporate your wedding. From any colors to any elements of décor, cake pops can be customized to your big day and offer as a fun sweet treat for your guests.
- Candy buffet. Instead of offering a single item as a wedding favor, create an entire buffet of candy. Choose candies in your wedding colors, place them in pretty glass jars with little scoops and allow your guests to create little goody bags with all of their favorites. Who wouldn’t love this idea?!
