Candles are great for a number of things such as holiday décor, gifts, and making the home smell wonderful but they also make great wedding favors as well. As I was helping my best friend plan her wedding we were trying to decide on something unique to give as favors and went online to Google wedding favors and found that candles are becoming a more and more popular choice. Candles are fairly inexpensive and decorations for them are as well so candles as wedding favors can be a very economical choice. By doing a search online you can find a number of ideas as to exactly how to present your beautiful candle wedding favors to your guests.

One way to prepare your candle wedding favors for your tables is by tying ribbons around them with the brides and grooms name on them as well as the date of their special day. It is very easy to get creative with favors such as these. You can choose ribbons to go with the season in which you have your wedding or that match your wedding colors. You can also choose different colors for the wording on the ribbons and make the writing match your chosen colors as well. Ribbons are usually very low cost and often the company will at the writing at no additional cost so this is a very cost efficient way to give your guests something to remember your special day and guests will love the beautiful candles that you send home with them.

Another great way to decorate your candles for your wedding favors is to wrap them in decorative or colored cellophane. You can choose whatever color candles you want to match your wedding colors or the season and then wrap the candles in another color of cellophane that will go well with the colored candles. If you set the candle in the center of the piece of cellophane you can then pull the cellophane up around the candle and tie with a colorful ribbon. In order to remind your guests of who's special day it is you may either have your names and wedding date printed on the ribbons or you can have them etched into the candles themselves. You could even have your names and wedding date printed on small charms and tie them onto the ribbons before tying them onto the cellophane. This is also a very inexpensive way to decorate candles for wedding favors and the favors will delight the eyes of all of your guests.

Finally, another great way to use candles as wedding favors is to buy glass jars and use floating candles. These are great because you can find floating candles in a variety of designs so the chances are you will find the perfect one to go with the season or theme of your wedding. And by adding your names and wedding date to the jars you will remind everyone that they shared your special day with you. There are so many beautiful ways to use candles for wedding favors, the hard part is deciding exactly what to do.
