Practical Wedding Favors...

By Patricia Priothler

Getting your guests to remember your wedding day may not be a priority but it is good if you can achieve this and using practical wedding favors is certainly one way to do this. While it may not seem important, it is nice when your guests have made the effort to attend your wedding ceremony, perhaps traveling some distance, for them to have something of value but useful as a remembrance.

You also want your guests to appreciate the wedding favors as well which is not likely to happen if you decided to choose the easy wedding favors option as many do. Ok, so they will not have the immediate joy that candy wedding favors brings but the candy will be eaten on the day and forgotten about the next so practical gifts will keep the memory going.

One practical suggestion is coasters which are easily obtainable in a number of shapes, including the romantic heart shape but can also be designed to have your wedding theme imprinted. Heart shaped coasters will be ideal because they are romantic and convey the sentiment of love but they are also something your guests can really use. Special images of the themed wedding can easily be placed on the coasters but it is just as easy to only place one image on the coasters and leave the rest blank so each guest can place their favorites on them when they are ready.

Just as an idea for something completely different, why not look for some key chains that can be used by your guests every day although you will probably require a couple of designs as men and women's tastes in key chains differ decidedly. In fact there are so many designs you could almost make every one unique but they will at the very least have to be strong enough for regular use as well as a reminder of your wedding day.

Another popular wedding favor but practical nonetheless are candles as they can be used at anytime but come in a wide variety of styles. Candles are still very romantic and in recent years they have become en vogue again and now many people use them routinely, especially scented candles as they provide a nice light and can be very calming. Candles will not be a wedding favor that goes into a bin as they are very practical and will be used at some point.

If you want to stay with a romantic theme, and after all it is a wedding favor, then why not consider wine charms which can have wedding bells or heart shapes and are rather appropriate for a wedding. If you do not already know, wine charms are placed on a glass when someone has friends around so that individual's glasses can be easily recognized. Particularly useful for large gatherings, wine charms can actually be used at your wedding and the guests will not have to wait for another occasion to use them.
