Wedding Guest Favors

Green- Organic candy or mints
Guests often forget their favors after a fun night of drinking and dancing. Supply your friends and family with something that can be used after dinner and your gift will not be given in vain. Purchase organic candies or mints in bulk, then wrap in a variety of styles. I like the organza pouches at Fetpak which come in a variety of colors.

St. Claires offers a selection of organic mints that run $9.95 for an eight ounce bag. Organic and vegan chocolates are available at Sweet Earth Chocolates at a very fair price. Purchase bulk and use the organza bags; favors will cost less than $1.50 each.


$Greener- A packet of seeds
A perfect favor for a spring wedding! Supply each guest with a packet of flower seeds to plant in their yard or garden. Londy's Creations offers personalized packets for only $.60-$.70 each!


I will give seeds to my guests and hope the blooms remind them of the good time they had on our special day.




$Greenest- Plant a tree or give a donation in the guest’s honor
Although your guests will not take something home with them, hopefully they will be happy with the good that will take place in their name. If you have an outdoor wedding, a tree planting ritual can be incorporated into your ceremony. If this is not an option, take your guest favor budget and donate that amount to a good cause. Network For Good is a great search engine to help you find your ideal charity.

I'm not sure. Maybe the wildflowers.
