Fabulous Favours

With the traditional 'sugared almonds in a bag' becoming a thing of the past, couples are now finding new and inventive ways of thanking their guests for coming. Favours can now be found fr every colour, season and theme that the bride and groom can think of! You can now go as simple or as wacky as you want, finding something truly unique that gives everyone a smile and letting your creativity go wild.

For the Eco bride, you can get minature cacti and plants in cute little pots, a personalised pack of seeds or perhaps a bean plant that has the word 'Love' on it once grown (so sweet!). Food and drinks are also becoming popular ideas with small bottles of booze, biscuits and modern sweets showing a trend. I personally love the mini gumball machines. If its a summer wedding, small jars of jams and honey go down a treat, or as seen in the pics below, how about a pair of sunglasses for each guest!

Of course there are millions more to have! I've seen everything from cheeseboards and wine stoppers, to toys and photograph frames. A great idea for those keeping to a tight budget is to make a CD for each guest with songs that are meaningful to the bride and groom. Another favourite is a personalised bag of tea leaves (I am a tea addict so this makes me smile!).
