Wedding Favors: Location, Location, Location

I always recommend using your location as inspiration for your guest room gifts, but your location can also inspire your wedding favor. 

If you’re getting married on or near a beach, there are a myriad of favors that you can find online.  Starfish candles or magnets, miniature-sized beach pails filled with candy, a bag of shells and of course wine stoppers topped with a shell or starfish are just a few of the many products available.

Getting married at a country club?  Handout personalized golf balls or golf tees.  If you (or your fiancé) is a dentist they sell tooth-themed (cavi-)tees at the Dental Museum in Baltimore.

If you’re getting married in a specific location, look for local foods and elements for inspiration.  Getting married in France?  Give each couple a champagne bottle for two.  Having a Las Vegas wedding?  A deck of personalized playing cards or chocolate poker chips are sure to be a huge hit.

If you’re not sure what the city or town is known for just ask your vendors.  You can also turn to the local Chamber of Commerce for ideas.   

 

The white chocolate shells featured here are from ChocolateFantasies.com. The company sells a variety of shell shapes and colors, including: dark and milk chocolate, marbled (as seen here with white chocolate), pink and mint green. Package them in favor bags or boxes or adorn your wedding cake or dessert plate with them.
