Homemade Wedding Favor Ideas

Wedding planning can seem endless, but the actual event can fly by so quickly take-away gifts can be all the more important to preserving the memory of the special day for guests. Personal touches and details can be a sweet and functional way to remember the special day.

For an easy, attractive and lasting gift, succulents make great wedding favors. The couple can dress up the pot with personal details or insert a photo holder into the plant.

The photo holder could be purchased, or a simple DIY project: Choose a rustic stick or trendy straw, attach a small clothes pin with the pinchers facing up to hold the photograph. Not only will the gifts dress up whatever room they are in, but also they are low matainance for the guest and will last well after the event has ended.

Another functional, but simple gift idea for couples is a nice frame and/or candle. Personalized labels can be made for candles as placecards that will make the table look nice as well as a personal keepsake for the guest.

For the frame, try fitting the menu inside for a decorative and functional gift. This way, once the wedding is over, guests can take something with them as a memory from the wedding and just repurpose it for their everyday life.
