Bridal Favors
It doesn’t have to be difficult to come up with great ideas for bridal favors. It is traditional to give them out to the guests who have attended the bridal shower. You will want to give those items that are elegant and classy. Yet too many hosts panic because they associate this with being expensive.
There are many great bridal favors out there you can choose from that are affordable though. Candles come in a variety of sizes, styles, and colors. You can choose those that are in the colors of the wedding. They will be great items to use or to display for any guest at the bridal shower. You can even place a few of them out with the decorations for the bridal shower.
Items for the guests to use on themselves are always welcome as well. Hand locations, facial creams, and body washes are all items they will love to use. There are plenty of great smelling ones to offer. You can mix and match them to give each guest a great collection of them. Go for the trial sized ones so you can offer more items to each person. Then if they love a particular fragrance they can buy a larger size later one.
Candy is a great hit as well for any bridal shower favors. You can buy heart shaped items or even get candy that has the names of the couple and their wedding date on them. There are many places online where you can get these customized goodies but make sure you place the order early enough.
You can purchase candy molds with a wedding theme to make your own candies in as well. There are colored candy melts you can buy in the colors of the wedding to use. You simply melt them in a pot and then pour them into the molds. After they have completely set you can place a handful of them into a clear bag. Seal it up with a foil wrap or a piece or ribbon in wedding colors.
Think of items that each of the people can use in their daily activities as well. There are some gorgeous bookmarks which may remind some that they haven’t picked up a good book lately. Picture frames are something people can always use. Get something fun such as a shoe or a round one that is out of the normal look of most picture frames. Even a nice letter opener is something that your guests will love.
If the wedding is taking place in the summer or outdoors, you can go with that as a theme for the bridal flowers. For example summer flowers, small vases, seashells, and even Hawaiian lieu’s are great. There are many themed items you can discover online so if you are interested in that angle see what is offered.
Offering bridal favors to your guests is something you should put some thought into. They can be fun items that they will enjoy or those they will put out on display. You can also choose to give them edible items if you wish. There are many options so be as creative as you would like with this part of the bridal shower.
