Elegant Wedding Favors - Elegant Party Favors

You've worked so hard on your wedding. You have made each decision carefully, trying to make sure the wedding will give an air of class, a touch of gracefulness that is sure to leave your guests with magical memories of your spcial day.

There's just one tiny, minute decision left to make, that of what your wedding favors should be. You've been to your share of weddings over the years and took home the little baubles that seemed nothing more than an afterthought. You don't want your wedding to be that way. No, you want it to exude an air of elegance in each and every decision, down to the smallest one - wedding favors.

Some points to ponder while making this choice... Sticking with your wedding colors while choosing elegant wedding favors will put you off to a good start. Your theme would be complete. If you wish for a bit of a change in color, black, white and silver are very much keeping in line with an elegant pattern.

Some other thoughts to keep in mind. You can still stay with your theme but throw a bit of a twist in. Maybe add add in a damask print, which is very classy. Pin stripe and zebra print are also good choices.

Elegance is usually quite simplistic, understated. You don't have to try hard, items of elegance stand confidently on their own. Elegant favors don't need to overly sparkle, they already shine.

Let's consider some ideas that you might choose for your wedding favors. Petite gift boxes tied up with satin ribbons are lovely to place gourmet chocolates or other treats in. Coasters are a nice choice. You could also go with small photo albums or oval picture frames. Of all the shapes frames come in, oval seems the most special, don't you agree? Curio boxes are a wonderful choice, as well as anything pewter or crystal. Champagne glasses, boxed in sets of two, would be good, as well. Gift boxes housing espresso sets would be divine.

Adding a personal touch is never a bad idea. In fact, personalizing favors shows how important it is to you that your guests receive something nice, something you took time to pick out for them. Have your wedding date and your newly married names engraved on your favors, or printed on it.

Another way to leave a special touch is to add a tiny note to the favor. Have it same something simple like 'thank you for becoming part of our wedding memories'. Other good choices to say would be to the effect of 'please accept this small gift as a token of our appreciation for you' or 'how blessed we are to have friends like you'. Another would be 'Thank you for sharing our special day'. Speak from the heart and you'll hit the mark every time.

Favors are important, but don't lose sight of the big picture. What everyone is going to most remember is the elegance of the couple they watched join their lives together in marriage.
