It's true you can't tell a book by its cover - but there's nothing wrong with a stylish presentation, either! If you're looking to give your wedding presentation a little pizazz, the packaging of your wedding favor can help renovate entire tables.

Many trend-savvy brides are choosing to dress up their favors with fusion packaging. Fusion, as the name implies, involves crossing two different styles or design elements into a new and eclectic whole. A fusion mix might consist of traditional favors such as Jordan almonds or tasteful potpourri wrapped in Asian-themed "takeout" containers. By combining two different cultures, the bride mixes tradition with her own interests.

Using different color schemes for your packaging is another quick way to transform your favor. If your wedding is in the spring, you might choose to use pastel favor boxes of soft green, blue, or yellow colors. Or, you might opt for the traditional white but use splashy or kooky-fun ribbons that express your more outrageous side.

Of course, you might also let the favor itself suggest the packaging - and sometimes the favor itself is the package. Gifts such manicure kits and tote bags are sometimes done up in a groovy retro-kitsch style, so no gift-wrapping is necessary. Photo albums make an elegant display either by themselves or with a tastefully placed organza bow.

So, remember to flex your creativity, and remember too that the sky's limit. The wedding reception or rehearsal dinner is a special day, and you can make it more special by expressing yourself and your own unique style.
