Personalised Wedding Favours – The Basics

September 15th, 2010 by admin


Personalised wedding favours are very popular for giving guests and your loved ones.  Personalised wedding favours are a great way to bring back memories of that perfect day. To remember for years to come that one special day in your life.

One of the most popular personalised wedding favours are boxes used for personalised wedding favours. These personalised wedding favours can contain candies or many other small items. My daughter put a mixture of marshmallows and chocolate in her’s, along with some small graham cracker pieces.

You can also fill your personalised wedding favours with bath beads or bath pearls for a wonderful fragrance as well as vivid colors. And enhance the effect by using a clear box for your personalised wedding favours. The color shows through the clear box. When these are tied with a colored ribbon, is a site to behold. This makes very beautiful personalised wedding favours.

There are plenty of goodies that you can put in your personalised wedding favours. A good edible mixture to use in your personalised wedding favours should be able to be eaten neatly. For example: Take a 1 pound bag of M&Ms. Mix in an equal amount of mini marshmallows. To that mixture add some Teddy Graham crackers. The candy coated chocolate will make sure everyone’s hands stay clean.

I have seen personalised wedding favours filled with everything from fresh nuts to freeze dried coffee. Whatever you fill your personalised wedding favours with, try and use contrasting colors in the mix. The color differences will contrast with each other and make it look more professional.

Personalised wedding favours boxes can also be filled with different items. You can fill most of the personalised wedding favours with the mixture above. And then for any personalised wedding favours given to a small child, you can enclose a small toy or stuffed animal. This is something the child will cherish for a long time.

You can even fill personalised wedding favours and hand them out to children based on the child’s age and sex. For example a young girl might prefer jewelry or a stuffed animal, over a toy soldier. And personalised wedding favours for teenagers will contain something altogether different. Girls would like the bath oil beads or pearls while boys would probably prefer snacks in their personalised wedding favours.

Choosing your personalised wedding favours properly will make sure that your guests can regain the joys that they experienced during your wedding for many years to come.

What Are Personalised Wedding Favours?

September 15th, 2010 by admin


Personalised wedding favours are simply small gifts that are handed out to the guests at a wedding. Many times they are handed out by the bride and groom. The groom hands personalised wedding favours out to the women, and the bride hands personalised wedding favours out to the men attending.

Personalised wedding favours can be as simple as a simple candy bar wrapped in a wrapper with a custom message and a photo on it. Personalised wedding favours can also be a picture in an engraved frame, or a bottle of wine carrying a custom wedding label.

Giving personalised wedding favours is a tradition that dates back hundreds of years. At one time when sugar was very expensive aristocrats would give sugar cubes in a crystal box, as a sign of wealth. Sugared almonds have replaced the sugar cubes in modern times.

Can I make my own personalised wedding favours?

Personalised wedding favours can be as simple as a handmade card in a fancy envelope. The card could have a photo and a personal message from the bride and groom. These personalised wedding favours can all be handled by a local print shop, or even someone with a nice color printer.

To easily make personalised wedding favours, you can use a small container. Either a small box or a jar should work. You can find jars that are different shaped. I have seen glass and plastic jars that were shaped like teddy bears and other animals.

Take this container and fill it with your goodies. Some goodies to consider are: chocolates, mints, a custom mix of chocolate and peanuts. Your personalised wedding favours could even contain mints and raisins. It is totally up to you.

If you want your personalised wedding favours to have both beauty and fragrance, then you should consider bath products. Bath beads, larger bath pearls, colored bath flakes or any combination of the above. Personalised wedding favours in a clear jar with different colored items inside look very professional.

Now you can chose a box for your personalised wedding favours. To put the finishing touches on your personalised wedding favours you can simply tie a ribbon around all of the boxes. It may take a little practice to make a nice bow.

You can also use two different colors of ribbons to add more color and contrast. Just hold two ribbons together and tie a bow around your personalised wedding favours, the same way you would with one ribbon.

Make sure not to forget a card on your personalised wedding favours. That card will carry a personal message along with a photo and the date of the wedding.

If you are using a jar for your personalised wedding favours, simply add a card. You can buy little cards that have a piece of elastic. Use the elastic to wrap the card around your personalised wedding favours. For personalised wedding favours in a box you can simply incorporate the card into the box on the ribbon. Your personalised wedding favours will make your guests feel that you really care about them. Personalised wedding favours will keep the happy memories alive for along time to come.

Choosing Personalised Wedding Favours

September 15th, 2010 by admin


We’re going to help you in choosing the best personalised wedding favours for your special day. There are many different kinds of personalised wedding favours. We will help you sort them all out. The first thing you need to keep in mind is your budget. That, and how many guests will be at the wedding, will be the basis for all the other decisions that you make.

Then you should consider if you want edible personalised wedding favours, or in-edible personalised wedding favours. We will help you decide on what would be the best, for your wedding day.

Some people prefer edible personalised wedding favours. One of the benefits of edible personalised wedding favours is that most everyone will enjoy them. Most edible personalised wedding favours fall in the snack category. And who doesn’t like chocolate and candy?

Another benefit is cost. Very nice snack and edible personalised wedding favours can be purchased at a very low cost. And even at such a bargain price, these personalised wedding favours will still make all of your guests feel welcome at your wedding.

One of the first things you need to keep in mind when you’re considering personalised wedding favours, is who your guests are going to be. Everyone loves chocolates and candies. But if your favorite aunt is coming, and she is a diabetic, you may want to choose something else for your personalised wedding favours.

You might also reconsider using edible personalised wedding favours if there are going to be younger children at the wedding. Can’t you just see those 20 kids running all around, hopped up on a sugar high? You want Aunt Sally enjoying herself, not chasing little Billy and Tammy around.

For these instances, you may want to consider non-edible personalised wedding favours. There are many great choices, but some of the more popular ones are:

Personalised Wedding Favour Boxes

Shot Glasses

Wine Bottles

Stuffed Animals

Photo Frames

The younger in the party are especially fond of monogrammed stuffed animals, bubbles, balloons and of course all the candy personalised wedding favours.

There are many benefits by using these types of items.

One of the main benefits is longevity. These personalised wedding favours will be enjoyed for years. They will bring out the memories and feeling of that special day, every time they are used. Whereas edible personalised wedding favours will be long forgotten.

When choosing personalised wedding favours keep your budget in mind. Then take a hard look at your guest list to figure out how many are coming. This is a good time to see who’s on that guest list too. Then decide on whether or not you want edible personalised wedding favours. Then enjoy yourself choosing just the perfect personalised wedding favours.

So when you are trying to come up with the perfect personalised wedding favours, keep these things in mind. They will help make your event even more special and memorable. This is a memory that you’ll want to last forever and personalised wedding favours will help keep that memory alive.

Personalised Wedding Favours – A Bad Dream

September 15th, 2010 by admin


There you are, at your wedding. You got your personalised wedding favours. You are actually standing at the altar with your groom. He looks so good. You’ve drempt of this for years, but now it’s really happening. Then you look around, and all you see are empty chairs. All of the guests are all gone. The room is totally silent. Where can they be? The last time you turned around, the room was packed.

You stumble down from the altar and start looking for them. Your groom, and the priest have a puzzled look on their faces. But you just have to find your guests. You beg your future husband to lend a hand. Even the priest reluctantly jumps down from the altar and starts looking around.

As you’re walking through the big room, you look around and see the wrappers from your personalised wedding favours. Wrappers from empty personalised wedding favours are everywhere. The tables are covered with wrappers from personalised wedding favours. There are even wrappers from personalised wedding favours all over the floor.

You look into the adjoining room and there are piles of wrappers from your personalised wedding favours.

There are personalised wedding favours wrappers everywhere. All of the wrappers are from your personalised wedding favours. What Could Be Going On? You stop for a moment as you hear a sound. You call your future husband over and motion for him to listen.

You both can now hear the faint sounds. You start walking in the direction that the sounds are coming from. You come up to a door and slowly open it. The door leads to the outside. Outside the door is a trail of wrappers from your personalised wedding favours.

There are people running all over. They appear to be chasing children. Children? Hey, those are your guests.

You head towards one of the guests. She’s holding onto a child for dear life. The child is clinging to some wrappers from your personalised wedding favours. You approach the woman to find out what in the world is going on.

She tells you that the children were eating their personalised wedding favours. Then they all just started to look crazy. Then they just ran outside holding their personalised wedding favours screaming.

Your future husband looks at the child. He states that the child is having a huge sugar rush. You question him on this, but because he is a doctor, you pretty much have to believe him.

“Too many personalised wedding favours” the doctor declares.

You start to cry. Your priest grabs you and starts to shake you. All he can say is, “You chose the wrong personalised wedding favours. You chose the wrong personalised wedding favours.”. Over and over and over. He won’t stop saying it. Then all of a sudden…

You open your eyes and your future husband is shaking you. He is starring at you with a worried look upon his face. You ask, “What’s going on? Where am I?”. Your future husband bursts out laughing. He tells you that you were sleeping and he heard you yelling. You just kept yelling something about personalised wedding favours.

“Personalised wedding favours?”, you exclaim. Oh my, it was the personalised wedding favours that I picked out. I have to change them. You yell, “I need new personalised wedding favours, right now”. Your future husband watches as you run out the door in your pajamas yelling, “I need to change my personalised wedding favours”.

The good news is that your future husband still married you, even after all that. And you managed to change your personalised wedding favours and everything was just fine. The guests all enjoyed the service. Even the kids had a good time. The wedding went perfectly, except for when you tore your dress trying to save one of the personalised wedding favours. But that’s a story for another day.
