Sep 6, 2009

Often couples just cannot make a decision about what gifts to present to their guests and in this situation it always worth falling back on edible wedding favors. Wedding guests do not mind if the wedding favors are sweet or not. If you have a special wrapper made up it will look that little bit special and even a simple bar of chocolate will be a popular choice. As there are so many types of candy bar it might be an idea to buy a selection so that guests can swap if they prefer something else. A particularly loving touch is for there to be a message from the couple on the candy wrapper in addition to the wedding details.

Some brides and grooms may even decide to have their pictures on the wrapper along with their names and the wedding date. If you don't fancy chocolate then why not supply candy filled tins as an edible wedding favor alternative. By having the date, time and location of the wedding on the candy tin it makes it something that the guest will want to keep. The guests may eat the candy soon after the wedding but they can keep the candy tin as a reminder of your wedding; they can use it to store other small items such as change, sewing needles, rubber bands or virtually anything which is small enough to be stored in them. Even people that don't often eat candy will tuck in when it is an edible wedding favor because they get drawn into the occasion.

One unique way to give out candy as wedding favors is to use large glass bowls as the centerpieces for the tables and fill the bowls with the bride and grooms' favorite types of candy. You can also leave a small presentation box with details of the wedding, and one that can even match the wedding theme if there is one. You can guarantee it won't take long before the guests start filling their boxes with the candy. Cookies are other options for brides and grooms who want to give out edible wedding favors and there are a number of different options in this case. Undecorated cookies are best because they are supposed to go inside a decorated box which can have the wedding day details printed on it.

These days it is easy to insert images onto anything and a cookie isn't any more difficult than a wrapper. As this has become more popular so has the number of bakeries able to provide this type of service and having images printed onto cookies isn't that difficult. An unusual and more exclusive option for edible wedding favors is to give the guests coffee, cocoa or tea. You can select specialty cocoas, teas or coffees or you can have the packaging customized to include your picture, an appropriate quotation, poem or other message related to loves and weddings. The packaging could also contain details of the marriage and if the budget allows, a picture of them could be printed on it also. With a little bit of imagination it is surprising how effective even simple ideas can be.
