Creative wedding favors are a fun way to celebrate your wedding day and they don’t have to cost a fortune. The creative possibilities for unique and unforgettable wedding favors are limited only to your imagination. With a little bit of thought and ingenuity, and maybe a dab of craftiness you can come up with original and creative wedding favors that your guests will be talking about for months to come.



A favorite theme for creative wedding favors is often the idea of things that go perfect together. A fun idea for inexpensive but creative wedding favors is to tie small packages of peanut butter and jelly together with a catchy poem about the beauty of a perfect pair.

You can also design your creative wedding favors around the theme of ‘a perfect match’ by decorating a pair of chopsticks with a piece of origami paper. Considering that wooden chopsticks can be picked up in bulk at many markets, the cost of creating these wedding favors will fit just about anyone’s wedding budget.

You might decide to make pairs of homemade wax rolled candles which are still attached at the wick. Add a cute poem with the phrase ‘eternal flame’ along with the date and the names of the bride and groom, and you will have succeeded in making unique and creative wedding favors.

If you are willing to spend a little more on creative wedding favors you might want to get innovative with photography; consider superimposing pictures of the bride and groom’s faces on an innocent picture of a young boy and girl, perhaps dressed as bride and groom. These pictures can be made into anything from fridge magnets to key chains, and make unique and creative wedding favors.

The bride and groom that want to give an original keepsake as creative wedding favors might even have custom designed clay figurines made of their likenesses. These unique figurines can be used as card holders at the reception table and can be a permanent keepsake of your wedding day.

Creative Wedding Favors that Add a Dash of Personal Flare

When putting together wedding favors, consider revolving the theme around something that the bride and groom enjoy doing together. The couple who loves to garden together might want to make creative wedding favors out of decorative flower pots that contain seeds of the bride and groom’s favorite flowers.

A couple who enjoys baking might want to put together a crafty bundle which includes heart shaped cookie cutters and a favorite recipe. If the couple loves indulging in chocolate, they might order special candy bar wrappers that detail their special day, which can be wrapped around their favorite candy bar.

If wine is a favorite indulgence of the bride and groom, they may want to order wine with customized wedding day labels.

If the wedding has a particular theme, you can plan your creative wedding favors to go with it. Some people have a themed wedding revolving around a time period, such as the 50’s, or they have a wedding theme around an area, such as an ‘old south’ wedding. Your creative wedding favors can reflect a bride and groom’s unique wedding theme.

Your wedding is a special day, and you want every detail to be memorable. With some thought and effort you can come up with original and creative wedding favors that fit your style and personality, as well as your budget.
