Wedding Favors Etiquette  

Wedding favors are important as these little gifts are the couple’s unspoken appreciation for the guests’ attendance of the wedding. Wedding favors can be casually chosen and casually given; nevertheless, wedding favors etiquette must be followed. 

Basically, wedding favors should reflect the wedding theme. The cost as well as the number of the guests invited should be considered. One of the very basic wedding favor etiquette is to provide a wedding favor for all the guests. The cost therefore must be considered. If you have set a budget for the favors and found out that it is not enough for the chosen wedding favor, you have to select another wedding favor that the budget can easily afford. The couple should never be afraid to choose a more affordable favor if it would mean that all the guests will receive one. Additionally it would be wise to buy a few more extra favors lest some pieces get damaged. It would be unthinkable to give a damaged wedding favor in the same manner that it would be improper to ask two guest s to share one piece of favor.

The chosen wedding favor should not be gender specific. Imagine giving a folding paper fan to a male guest. Ensure that the guest will like the wedding favor. There is a big chance that if you like the favor most of the guests would like it too. A well chosen wedding favor will reflect the couples’ personalities as well as their gratitude to the guests.  

The way the wedding favors will be distributed should be one of the wedding plans. Have a designated place where all the wedding favors will be placed. A table near the door would be most ideal.  Distributing the wedding favors as the guests are on their way out would ensure that every one will receive their wedding favors.

A well thought out wedding favor even though on the cheap side will be highly appreciated by the guests as it would show that the couple have taken great efforts to choose a favor that will be well liked. By following these wedding favor etiquette, the couple will be able to convey to the guests their heartfelt appreciation and gratitude for their being a part of the most significant event in their life.
