Wedding Favor IdeasMAKE YOUR OWN - Wedding Favors -
Party Favors -

The tradition of giving Favors has become an important part of the Wedding celebration. It has become increasingly popular for the Bride and Groom alike to take part in designing a favor that would compliment their tastes or hobbies, while giving thanks to their guests for sharing in their most special day. SKS Bottle & Packaging, Inc., is a great resource where you can purchase supplies for making your Wedding Favors (Party Favor). Our Wedding Favor index page will show you some of the ideas we have come up with, but there are many many more. Simply combine one of your likes or hobbies with our packaging, a decorative thank you tag or homemade label, some tulle, lace and ribbons and your favor is sure to be a hit.

Personalize your favor by making it yourself; will show your guest the time and effort you took to thank them for being part of your wedding reception. If you like making homemade extracts you can use our amber oval (http://www.sks-bottle.com/340c/fin2.html) to package the extract, and decorate with some tulle and a thank you tag. You could also decorate it with a label that tells a little something about what you have made. If you are a coffee connoisseur you can package coffee beans in one of our tins with a special label and lace. If you like making homemade spices or potpourri you can also use our decorative tins to hold these items that are special to you. Increasingly popular are the personalized CD's that brides and grooms are making, usually they include a few pictures of the happy couple along with a song (first dance) choice or message that you want your guest to have .Because these ideas are personal messages you can really cater them to what you feel your guest would enjoy and most appreciate. Candles also make a great wedding favor and can be made in our tins or glass jars. Along with the tulle, lace and tags you can also decorate the container in a way that would show off your personal taste. I have seen glass jars with the gems and rhinestones glued on, or a special message etched to make your favor distinctly unique. The traditional candy (Jordan Almonds), mint pillows, or mint drops can also be packaged in our wonderful assortment of containers. The clear top tins and hinge top tins are a wonderful way to deliver these candies as well. If your wedding has a special theme, you can make your favor to fit the theme such as conversation heart candies for a Valentine theme, or spiced candles for a fall wedding. Whatever you choose, the fact that it was made by you with your guests in mind will prove to be a success.


Aside from the Wedding Favor you can also make personalized seating cards by using the hinge top tins filled with mints and the guests name and table number. This is a special way to show your guests that extra special care was taken in their seating arrangements and will surely add to the elegance of a special occasion.

While the tradition of giving wedding favors is centuries old, it is still ever popular. We hope that you will find our site a great resource for making your wedding or party favors. These ideas can be taken further as favors for Bridal Showers, Baby Showers, Birthday Parties, Anniversaries and more. We'd love to hear what ideas you are using you containers for, just send me an e-mail: asales@sks-bottle.com

PACKAGING TIPS:
for making Wedding Favors
There are many options to enhance your wedding favor and give them your personal touch. You can add the traditional ivory or white tulle or ribbons, or you can add your wedding theme color to attractively package your favor. You can add labels, pre-printed or hand written tags, bubble bands or flower ties to further decorate your favor. These paper supplies can usually be found at your local craft supply store. Some choose to go even further by adding gem stones to the containers, or etching the glass for that truly unique look. Since the favors are often displayed on the tables you may want to choose something that will also serve a decorative purpose as well. We recommend that whichever design or package you chose to go with you should do a test run first and make sure what you are packaging is compatible with the package.
