There are so many options for wedding favors for friends and family attending your ceremony and reception. There are picture frames that can also be used as place card holders, novelty favors for almost every season or theme, and many other super ideas. I chose to go with candle wedding favors because they are very decorative, and you can get a lot of use out of a gift like that. I found just the right wedding favor boxes I wanted to use and I also ordered special hang tags for each.
I added some candle weddings to every reception table to add to the ambiance of the wedding. They really looked nice with all the other decorations and the lovely centerpieces I got from the florist. It’s not just weddings that have the candle gifts for, graduations, birthdays and many other themed events had candle party favors to choose from, and a really nice candle wedding favor for bridal shower parties too. It’s not just candles that my online store has, but they do have a heck of a selection of wedding and other party supplies and accessories.
I bought a complete five piece wedding set which has a wedding guestbook and matching pen set, flower basket, ring pillow and a very nice wedding garter. We saved a little money by being able to get so many of our accessories in a set like that at such a low cost. That’s another thing I like about where I got our wedding supplies, the prices are so reasonable, and they even had discount candles wedding favors.
We ordered a customized wedding cake topper and expected to pay a lot more than we actually did for it. This lovely cake topper was a bride and groom figurine that were exact replicas of me and my fiance, and our guests were really astonished. They used head shots of me and my fiance to make the bride and groom figurines. The three tiered chocolate wedding cake we had made was just gorgeous and was decorated with all red and pink flowers surrounding it. Next to our beautiful cake was the cake serving set I went crazy over, with it’s handles decorated in a gorgeous calla lily design.
For our wedding table we decided on getting the champagne flutes made especially for the bride and groom, but the guests all got beautiful crystal champagne glasses they could keep as an extra party favor. There was no point in keeping them, what would I do with 200 champagne flutes? We had enough momentos of our wedding day, like our photo album, topper, wedding guestbook with all the signatures and so much more. One of the items in our five piece wedding set was the claret colored wedding guestbook with guest sign in pages, a place to list the gifts we received and a special spot for those little momentos. The guest book comes in handy for making out your thank you cards, and it’s nice to have a record of everyone that shared that day with you. You want to be able to mention the gift they gave you when writing out your thank you cards, it’s much more personal that way.
I guess most of our guests really like the unique candle wedding favors we chose for their thank you gifts, some of them expressed their appreciation. Looks like a made a wise choice in wedding favors. We were told, by our guests, as we departed for our honeymoon, that it was a fantastic wedding and reception and they all hoped for the best for us. This day in my life, I will always remember and cherish.
