Fall Wedding Favors
Planning a fall wedding? Themed fall wedding favors make beautiful mementos!
Fall is a lovely time of year to get married. The heat of summer is off and landscapes turn oh so colorful. The warm colors of the season, along with an abundance of fall motifs in gift ware can lead you to some memorable and creative fall wedding favors. Here are just a few ideas for your perusal. Each one is ripe with possibilities and variations. With your lively imagination, your fall wedding favors can be unique, treasured by your wedding guests for years to come.
You must, of course, temper your desires according to your budget. Whether your choice of fall wedding favors is relatively inexpensive or a luxury item, most of all you want the favor to convey a personal message which your guests will truly appreciate. You don’t want some rubber-stamp sort of idea that comes across as an afterthought on your part. After all, you are extending your thanks to your guests for thinking enough of you to come celebrate your happiest day. Make it meaningful.
Here’s a fabulous and relatively inexpensive wedding favor which is a real standout. For each person, couple and family on your guest list, buy a small photo album, say 5 by 8 inches, with a fall motif decorating the cover. Snap shots of the important and romantic events during the wedding, such as the ‘I do’s’, cutting the cake, the first dance and the newlyweds leaving the wedding. Take pictures of the guests enjoying the reception. You’ll need someone to rush that roll of film to the nearest 1-hour photo shop and then some volunteers, to slip one photo of each picture into your albums, inscribed with the names of the bridal couple and the date. These favors can be passed out as guests leave.
Potpourri jars, with a leaf motif, filled with the scents of fall, such as cinnamon, also make lovely fall wedding favors. Alternatively, stick incense holders of wood or metal, may be inscribed with your names and wedding date. With a supply of exotic incense sticks, your guests will have a happy reminder of your big day.
Smallish wicker baskets, lined with cloth fall leaves and then filled with dried or silk flowers, reminiscent of your wedding flowers makes another original fall wedding favor.
An assortment of small jars of luxury foods, coffee, tea or culinary seasonings can be attractively arranged in a food gift basket that’s sure to be appreciated.
Champagne glasses with a fall edge decoration, etched with the couple’s name and wedding date are yet another impressive fall wedding favor idea.
Inscribed bud vases, coasters and keepsake boxes are some other favor ideas sure to live on in your guest’s memories long after your wedding day.
Put your imagination to work and make your wedding favors worthy of your guest’s best wishes. To your long and happy life together!
