Another tasty and popular suggestion is chocolates. Little chocolate candies packaged in decorative favor boxes not only make an enjoyable gift for your guests, but add to the decor of your tables.  Almost everyone enjoys the taste of rich, lucious chocolate treats.      

   Your friends and family are there to share in your special day and to show their support for you and your fiance. They watch you walk down the aisle to the altar and listen to your vows of devotion, they share one of the most important days of your life and the wedding gifts you give to them is a show of your appreciation. Your guests are very special and the favors you choose for them should be just as special. Personalizing your gifts for your guests is an extra little way of showing how much you care. Having your names and the date of your wedding not only shows your gratitude for sharing your special day with you, but also helps them to remember the date of this happy occasion, and bring back memories of the wonderful time they had at your reception. I have a few wedding favors from receptions and parties that I have attended, which is lucky for me, since I’m so terrible with dates, one of these personalized favors helps me to remember my sister in laws wedding anniversary. I always remember the month, but the actual date usually escapes me.

   There are so many options for gifts for your friends and family. If you are planning a themed wedding and reception, that’s no problem, there are so many themed favors to check out. There are country western favors, beautiful winter wonderland gifts, and fantastic beach themed favors that your guests would love to receive. There are also some very nice gifts for Asian, Irish and other ethnic weddings. My favorite wedding gift favor was a gorgeous little snowglobe that I received at a most beautiful winter wonderland wedding. It’s so adorable and means a lot to me. It sits on my living room book case and is a reminder of the fantastic time we shared with our friends.

   Also, remember your maid of honor, bridesmaids, groomsmen, best man and others that were a part of wedding ceremony. You want to give them each something special as a show of gratitude for all they’ve done to make your special day go as planned.  You can also find adorable gifts for that precious little flower girl and handsome little ring boy you chose to be in your ceremony. You know the old saying “ It’s the thought that counts?” Well, that’s very true, so it is important that you put a lot of thought into the gifts you choose for your friends and family that take part in one of the most important days of you life.
