How to Choose the Perfect Wedding Favours for Your Guests

Posted by giftwaredirect on October 24th, 2016

It’s not always easy to choose the perfect wedding favours for your guests especially if you want to stick to a certain budget. But don’t worry—it’s certainly possible to find stylish and practical favours that don’t break the bank. 

Here are some tips: 

1. Buy direct from the factory or manufacturer.

Stay away from fancy wedding stores that sell overpriced wedding favours. These days, you can easily buy directly from the manufacturer by simply going online. Why pay a middleman? Factory-direct wedding favours can cost less than half of what you would pay for them in a regular store. And if you’re ordering favours for 100 guests or more, you’ll get even better prices. 

2. Go for personalised.

Even the plainest objects can be turned into elegant wedding favours by laser engraving. From pens to bottle openers to tankards, almost anything that is made of stainless steel can be engraved with your names and wedding date, or even a short and sweet message. Monogram laser engraving can also make an otherwise affordable item—such as a pen—look much more expensive and elegant. The best way to shop for the perfect engraved wedding favours is to go online, where you can sort choices by price. Some of the best suppliers offer FREE engraving. Now that’s a good deal. 

3. Practicality wins.

Nobody wants to a hold on to a tacky or useless wedding souvenir—so please, don’t give them to your guests. You want an item that they can truly treasure as keepsakes and/or use in their regular lives. It’s hard to go wrong with engraved bottle openers, personalised pens, engraved shot glasses or wine glasses, engraved glass coasters, and the like. These items are both beautiful and practical so your guests are likely to keep them—not throw them out the minute they get home.

Don’t feel any pressure to go beyond what you can afford in your quest for the perfect wedding favours. Set a budget and stick to it. Great wedding favours don’t necessarily have to be pricey, after all. You can get engraved favours for anywhere from to if you go straight to the manufacturer. For your wedding guests, simpler wedding favours such as pens or bottle openers will do. But you might want to spend a bit more for members of your bridal party, such as your bridesmaids.
