There is so much planning to do for your big wedding day, and one of the most fun things to think about and consider as far as wedding decorations is favors.

A favor is something your guests take home as a souvenir of your wedding day. It can be something traditional, cultural or something completely, uniquely you.

In the end, it is all about your big day and how you want to experience it.

The wedding favors can be something you use as a table decoration, as well.

Will you be having a colorful wedding? Do you want to leave your wedding guests with a certain feeling? Do you want to give them something they can use after they get home?

Something you can use as fabulous wedding decorations and your guests will love to take home and use is candles.

Candles tend to be gifts that are greatly appreciated, since they can create romance at the dinner table, in the bedroom or even in the bathroom. So, candles as wedding decorations can also easily become wedding favors that will be enjoyed for hours or days to come. These days candles come in so many colors, shapes, sizes and even designs, that you can find or even have someone make the perfect candle wedding decorations for your special day. They even make candles that look like tiered wedding cakes!

Are you the creative type? Then wedding decorations that become wedding favors can be an incredible opportunity for you to showcase your talents! Some incense cones or sticks, a bit of ribbon, some wax, a few sprigs of baby’s breath and voila! You have got a beautiful work of art that can grace your wedding reception. There is plenty of time to have fun with it all and experiment.

Are you a wine lover? Consider decorating your table with baskets of wine that your guests can then take home with them.

Do you draw caricatures? Ever think of making a small framed caricature of each guest with their names as a place holder? This is definitely something your guests may treasure and even showcase for years to come.

Will your wedding be outdoors? Beach weddings are always popular and allow for lots of wedding decoration options. Think about what things your guests might use at the beach for ideas. It may be a cost-effective alternative to use shells or other beautiful found objects as wedding decorations. Just be careful to obey local laws and not to disturb natural vegetation or wildlife.
