Wedding favours are a very popular feature of weddings and a much loved tradition. Choosing the right one for your wedding can be difficult and a daunting task especially if you are working to a budget, probably one which is already well stretched!

When trying to decide what favours to have, don’t rush, there is time if you plan ahead and it should be a fun thing to do. Here we have some great tips for you.

Colours and Themes

The obvious question to ask is whether you have a specific colour scheme for your wedding or a theme. If you have a specific scheme, you can pick your favours that compliment your theme and brings everything together.

Mood

The type of favour you decide upon may also depend on how formal or casual your wedding is. A less formal favour may have something more personalised and home-made than one that is more formal.

Budget

The budget can play a big part of the decision making process. Weddings cost enough as it is and favours just add to it. Favours need not be expensive if you are on a budget. You can easily make your own favours or rather than buying ready-made favours, you can buy yourself DIY favour boxes. This saves money though you have to assemble the favours yourself. This is a great way to make savings.

Bride & Groom

Think about the bride and groom and what their interests are, how they met etc. With these aspects in mind, you can come up with an idea that reflect these personalities and bring them out in the favours that you give. An example is a friend’s wedding. This couple kept chickens in their garden and for their favours, the bride made her own little chicken-looking embroidery paperweights. They were really cool and a very nice personal touch. The only investment was some fabric and time to put it together.

Use your imagination and you can come up with some great wedding favour ideas without breaking the bank.
