Unique Wedding Favors – Bridal Shower Favors
All around the world in one way or another it is traditional to give bridal shower favors to the guests who attend the bridal shower. Although it is traditional, increasingly more people question the need to give favors at a bridal shower, seeing that there will be favors given at the wedding reception. Some people feel that with the tremendous increase in cost of living, being invited to the wedding party is a favor enough.
The thought behind a bridal shower favor is to thank those who come, for taking the time out to attend your bridal shower. There is much more to bridal shower favors than just being another gift or novelty! Bridal shower favors need to have an element of fun, have some sort of resemblance to the theme of the wedding and above all have a touch of class to remind guests of the time shared for a long time to come.
It is heart warming to see the smiles on the guests’ faces when they receive the favor that you present them with. Bridal shower favors can be a memory that will remain long after the price tag and effort you had to put into it has disappeared. This is more so if you kept a favor or two yourself and know the emotions running through you every time you hold it in your hand or lay your eyes on it.
With so many bridal shower favors to choose, where or how does one get started? A thing to do is start with your budget before anything else. If you’re going to entertain 30 guests at the bridal shower and need to provide a favor to each of them at $4 a piece you will be spending $120 dollars on the favors alone.
One idea for a bridal shower favor that tends to be a favorite is a key ring. A clear customizable key ring can be used where a photo of the soon-to-be bride is attached and a personal message is printed on the reverse side of the photo. This will surely keep the memories of the bridal shower lingering. If this is not to your liking, you can make your choice out of thousands of different colors and designs to suit your preferences.
A great idea for bridal shower favors is anything with chocolate. Now who do you know that will not appreciate a chocolate favor? Three dressed up truffles in a clear plastic gift box wrapped up with a stylish ribbon is an ideal bridal shower favor. Another appealing chocolate gift will be to mold your own chocolate hearts or cupids and “glue” them together with a rich caramel toffee filling.
The most intriguing bridal shower favor idea to try is presenting miniature-trailing plants planted in petite little pots with instructions included to maintain this living momento for years to come.
