Spring Wedding Favors: Gifts that Convey Warmth and Zest for Life

April 30, 2008

Spring is the time for rebirth, when everything comes to life again. It is also the perfect time for a wedding. Amidst all the joy and excitement of the season, your spring wedding favors must also convey the same warmth and zest for life.

Spring harmonizes what is beautiful with what is practical. You too can embrace this principle when choosing your spring wedding favors.

Show your own harmony by giving out a dainty set of salt and pepper shakers that look exactly like two peas in a pod. They make great decorative items during your reception and will be very useful on your guest’s dinner table long after the wedding.

Flowers abound in spring. Fill your reception hall with all sorts of flowers and carry on the theme in your spring wedding favors.

Wine bottle stoppers are popular as wedding favors. Tie in the spring theme by choosing a calla lily design. You can give a pair and put them in a box that resembles a miniature planter. As an accent to your spring wedding favor package, use a rope-like ribbon to support the stems.

Spring brings to mind walks through beautiful gardens, tin pails, watering cans, or rose petals on the ground. Use these ideas as inspiration and transform them into delightful spring wedding favors that would charm your guests.

Guests will always appreciate floral-scented candles that continue exuding sweetness even after your wedding day. Rose garden candles will endear you to the recipients. Alternatively, you can get small vases to hold real flowers and present them as your spring wedding favors. Or, get little bottles and fill them with essential oil which your guests can add to their baths.

Animals in hibernation get up and get active again during the spring season. Take this inspiration to come up with creative ideas when thinking of your spring wedding favors.

Glass tea light holders in the shape of doves reflect your love and undying devotion. Use the spring colors of green, blue and pink to enliven the table and brighten your gift. Make sure to fill the holders with aromatic tea light candles to keep the flames of love burning and spread its fragrance in the air.

You can also have fun while choosing your wedding favors. Pick place card holders that are not only functional but will also tickle your guests. A practical choice would be garden party flip flops. They can lead the guests to their assigned seats. Be sure to get them in bright, different colors. Your guests can use them later at home to hold bills or photos.

How about glass coasters? They are practical and beautiful at the same time. Choose a design that can continue carrying your spring theme. You may also have them etched with your names and your wedding date.

Spring is a time of new beginnings and never ending choices. Celebrate spring and rejoice in your love.
