Gone are the days when your guests could expect to take home a bag of Jordan almonds from your wedding. Nowadays, wedding favours are another chance for you to let your personality shine in the form of a gift that your guests will actually enjoy! Here are some ideas to inspire you:

1. Shot Glasses:
Engrave them with your wedding date or wedding hashtag and have guests use them at the reception.

2. Individual Coffee/Tea Servings:
Do you have a favourite tea blend? Or maybe your first date was at a local coffee house. Gift your favourite java to your guests in individual servings so they can enjoy at home.

3. Coasters:
Coasters make a great wedding favour since most people need coasters and never buy them – complete with cute quotes, these will live on coffee tables for years to come!

4. Succulents:
Plants are a great favour for a summer wedding, and almost no one can kill a succulent.

5. Mason Jars:
Save on glassware and create custom mason jars that your guests can use for the evening.

6. Pint/Wine Glasses:
Another great way to give your guests something to use again are pint/wine glasses engraved with your wedding hashtag or a fun quote about love.

7. Olive Oil:
Maybe you and your partner love to cook! Picking a delicious and unique olive oil to use as your wedding favours is a fun alternative to candy or cake.

8. Flip Flops:
Keep your guests’ feet comfy so they can dance all night long!

9. Sunglasses:
Are you getting married outside? Protect your guests’ eyes with some unique shades!

10. Chocolate:
A timeless classic, you can never go wrong with chocolate! Work with a local chocolatier to pick your favourite flavours.

11. Bottle Openers:
Everyone loves a novelty bottle opener! This way, every time your guests crack a beer, they will think of you!

12. Macarons:
Take your favours up a notch and have custom macarons made. Wrap them in a fun box and leave them on your guest’s place settings.

13. Home made treats:
Are you known for your family honey recipe? Maybe you bake something unique!
