A simple yet elegant way to say “thank you” to the guests joining you on your special day, wedding favors come in all shapes and sizes. To help you find the perfect tokens of thanks for your wedding, here are some examples of great wedding favors from classic to modern.

One classic way of adding your own personal touch to your wedding favors while keeping costs down involves packing small boxes, jars or other containers with gourmet candy or other treats. Here are some great ideas for classy do-it-yourself containers:

2 Piece Favor Box

This easy-to assemble lidded boxes are just the right size for a generous gift of candies, 2 inches in all dimensions, and come in variety of wedding-friendly coors and shades.

Chinese Take-Out Favor Boxes

A playful and unique way to offer guests some gourmet treats for the road, these plastic boxes in the style of the classic Chinese take-out box are inexpensive and come in a variety of colors including frosted, pink, lavender, red, blue and green. Dress them up for a bit of added flair or offer them on their own.

Frost Cone Favor Kit

Yet another classy and out-of-the-ordinary way to offer a simple thank you, these frosted plastic packages take the shape of elongated pyramids, for an elegant look and come complete with personalized tags with room for recipients’ names and the date.

Hershey's Miniatures Chocolate Wedding Favors

In some cases, the candies you give away can be a little too interesting or lovely to pack into boxes. Such is the case with these well known personalized Hershey’s Miniatures chocolate candies. These unique thank you candies come in a variety of Milk Chocolate, Krackel, Special Dark, and Mr. Goodbar. Their classic looking wrappers are customizable with up to 18 characters and a number of designs of your choice.

Scented Frosted Glass Votive by Kate Aspen

One very traditional wedding favor is the commemorative votive candle and holder. These lovely examples by Kate Aspen add an extra touch of class with a rose-scented candle and a frosted glass votive that are available decorated with your choice of a graceful calla lily or a more ornate hearts and vines pattern. The candles each come individually packed in a plastic box with a silver ribbon and thank you card.

Monogrammed Lip Balm by Damask

These monogrammed tubes of lip balm by Damask represent one unique wedding favor that definitely falls on the modern side of the line. Decorated with an attractive black and white pattern, these sticks are available with a single customized letter for a little monogrammed class. The product itself is no low class affair however. A nourishing blend of vitamins, minerals and organic oils, this spectacular lip balm is petroleum free and offers SPF 15 protection to keep your kisser in tip top condition all day.

Cappuccino Wedding Favors - Monogram Themed

Another decidedly modern, or at least new, wedding favor idea, this thoughtful offering contains a single serving of mocha cappuccino mix for coffee and chocolate lovers. The attractive packing can be personalized with the recipient’s monogram and is tastefully designed with mixing instructions on the back. This extra special wedding favor is also available in a variety of other flavors and mixes, including cocoa, lemonade, margarita and cosmopolitan and can be ordered with a simple message and date rather than a monogram.

"Hugs & Kisses From Mr. and Mrs.!" Scented Soaps by Kate Aspen

These artistic scented soaps by Kate Austen combine a traditional idea with a bit of modern design to offer a delightfully witty yet luxurious and useful gift for your wedding guests. Emitting an endlessly pleasing powder-fresh scent, the set includes two 1 ½ inch white soaps, one shaped as an X and one as an O, hence the hugs and kisses. The whole set is contained in an attractive vintage box with a ornate black and white pattern, black grosgrain ribbon tied in a bow and a tag that reads “Hugs & Kisses From Mr. and Mrs.!”

"Love Bug" Ladybug Magnets by Kate Aspen

Finally, a simple yet delightful wedding favor that is neither traditional nor modern, but timelessly cute, these “Love Bug” ladybug magnets by Kate Aspen are sure to provoke at least a few heartfelt “awws” from your guests. A match made in heaven, these ladybug magnets sport hearts on their wings rather than spots and come packed in an equally adorable miniature backyard gift box with a braided rope handle and a heart-shaped tag that reads, “For You.”

Small tokens of thanks and thoughtful mementos of your marriage ceremony, wedding favors can be reflections of your personality as well. Take these fantastic ideas into consideration when you search for the perfect wedding favor to commemorate your special day.
