Need a favor?

With wedding season upon us, one of the "little details" for couples to consider are wedding favors. Favors are another great way to incorporate the theme & style of your wedding and provide big impact with guests.

There are endless possibilities when it comes to favors...flipping through any bridal magazine you will be quickly overwhelmed by dozes of companies that sell just about anything and everything. Personally here at {ritzy bee} we think that a unique gift that represents the two of you & your wedding adds a much more personal touch. We hope you enjoy these ideas...

Something sweet

Everyone loves an edible gift!

Something regional or seasonal

Something special or homemade that represents the region, location or even time of year of your wedding...think honey, preserves, olives, caramel popcorn, apples, wine...

Something green

Offer guests something earth friendly...

Favors from Theo Chocolate are organic & fair trade

Tree in a Box offers seven different tree seeds that guests can easily plant at home

Something personal

Select a favor that represents the two of you...

If you are artistic and have the time, consider making something for your guests. We LOVE these journal books that were wrapped with pretty paper & stamped with guests names.

You can find similar books on one of our favorite websites, Lovely Design. These Journey Books are a perfect gift!

If you have a knack for photography and have favorite images you want to share with guests, a pocket size photo book that can be customized would be so charming!

A donation to a favorite charity “in lieu” of favors is very appropriate and from the heart. If you need any help, visit the I Do Foundation website for information.

{Don't forget the presentation and packaging are equally important when gift giving...what a great way to tie in your colors and repeat your overall look!}

These are wonderful favor ideas! I've been having some trouble deciding on favors... I want to do something that means something to my fiance and I but that the guests will enjoy.

Thanks for some inspiration!
