Today, it may be difficult to imagine a wedding without wedding favours. Once, long ago, wedding favours were not an integral part of the wedding reception, but today many guests look forward to receiving sweet souvenirs of the special day. Wedding favours are small tokens of appreciation provided by the bride and groom for the wedding guests to take home and treasure – either forever or for that evening, depending on the type of wedding favour provided (a lot of wedding favours are edible).

It is important for the wedding favours to be memorable and thoughtful.

Many of these websites and publications offer readers special pricing since wedding favours are usually purchased in bulk (about 100).
When choosing wedding favours, you should always think about the budget you have allocated for them. Some couples will spend quite a bit on wedding favours while others have a very limited budget. The number of favours that you need will always depend on the amount of people attending the wedding.

However, it is a good idea that your wedding favours fit in with the overall theme and colour scheme of your wedding.

Small boxes of chocolates, mints, fudge, sugar coated candies, and other food items are the most common wedding favours. These are usually packaged in beautiful boxes or small gift bags. It is also becoming more and more popular for couples to make a donation to their favourite charity in lieu of a wedding favour.
