Wedding Favors: Working With a Theme
Many brides and grooms select a wedding theme to help them coordinate all the details of their wedding. You don’t have to have a theme, but if you find that all of the elements you’re selecting for your wedding don’t really compliment each other, a theme will help you coordinate all of them. A favor is a simple way to bring your theme into the details of your wedding.
When deciding on a favor that has the look and feel of your theme, think about the other elements you have already selected. Could you incorporate your wedding flowers into your favor? How about your wedding’s color palette?
Remember to keep your budget in mind when selecting your favors, and think about what your guests will like as much as you do. A fan may be appropriate for a summer, garden or Asian-themed wedding. If it fits the theme, and the weather is hot, guests can use them to cool off. Another idea is a wine stopper, which would fit a vineyard wedding theme, and is definitely something guests can use at home.
