Favor Boxes

Fill these cute boxes with candies or nuts for your guests. Many times you can get your names (Bride & Groom’s) printed on the boxes. This makes for a fun and tasty treat for everyone.

Cameras

Set disposable cameras on each table with a note saying “Please take candid photos of the couple and guests.” This is fun for the guests and a lot of great pictures come from these cameras.

Bubbles, Birdseed and/or Rice can all make great wedding favors.

These items can be handed out (birdseed or rice can be wrapped in tulle & tied with a ribbon) to the guests. Then, as the Bride and Groom depart, all the guests can give them a proper farewell, filled with bubbles, thrown birdseed or rice!
