Every couple wants their guests to take back some pleasant
wedding memories and a little souvenir that the guests would love to own and
put to good us when all the wedding spirit has ended.
When it comes to picking wedding favors to give away on your
big day, it’s important to make them pretty, memorable, and thoughtful! Because
more and more people are making going green a lifestyle, why not choose to give
out eco-friendly favors to your guests? Here are some wedding giveaway ideas
that are not only pretty to look at, but kind to the environment too!
Plants or Seeds
When it comes to environmental-friendly matters, I don’t
think there’s anything more basic than growing a plant! Plus, plants have the
power to calm your senses too, which your guests will be thanking you for
sooner or later.
Local Coffee
Here’s something your guests will be sure to use! You can
choose from different varieties of coffee beans to make your own special blend.
Make sure to stick with locally sourced coffee beans to support our local
farmers!
Eco Bags
Why not give your guests a bag made out of 100% recycled
material? Not only are bags like this kind to the environment, they’re kind to
your guests as well by being of great help in carrying their things–the
no-plastic way! Now who wouldn’t love that?
Non Plastic Tumblers
Hand your guests tumblers for them to use whenever they head
to their favorite coffee shop. You can add a personalized touch by putting on
cute designs or details too! You can say goodbye to coffee cups and water
bottles with style!
Metal Straws
Here’s a pretty cool fact, did you know that one metal straw
is equal to five hundred forty plastic straws?! Imagine how much good you’re
doing the environment by gifting each and every one of your guests with this!
You’ll deserve a pat on the back, for sure.
Bamboo Tooth Brushes
Here’s another comparison: One bamboo toothbrush is
equivalent to four plastic toothbrushes! By giving wood or bamboo toothbrushes
away as your wedding favor, you’re low-key educating your guests to be kinder
to nature!
Recycled Notebooks and Planners
Just because it’s recycled doesn’t mean it can’t look
pretty! Believe me, there are tons of notebooks made out of recycled paper, and
they still look as aesthetic as ever! With lots of notes to be jutting down
during their daily lives, your busy guests will appreciate this.
Home Made (or organically bought) Preserves
If you’re the
homely type and have a special Jam or preserve recipe, treat your guests to a
thoughtful gift from the heart. If you want to skip the hassle and opt for
store bought instead, purchase organic preserves from your local farmers
market!
Organic Tea blends
Get creative with a blend of berry teas
or delightful herbal creations to transport your guests to heaven in a tea-cup
Eco Friendly Soaps
Naturally made soaps are not only good
for the environment, they’re a real heaven-scent treat, too!
Organic Bath Salts
Give your guests the gift of a gentle,
relaxing bath with organic bath salts. They’ll thank you later!
Herbal Favors
Invigorate table arrangements with a flavor infusion.
Farmers'-market greenery, like oregano, basil, and tarragon, gives this modern
setting an organic feel; planted in sleek pots, the herbs double as inventive
displays for a wraparound menu of foods that put the plants' virtues to good
use
Tins with Seeds
These seed-filled tins make it possible for each of your
guests to take home a pop-up garden. We affixed labels to each one -- names and
date on the front, and simple planting instructions on the back.
Takeaway Plant Centerpieces
For a takeaway centerpiece that's anything but garden
variety, decorate reception tables with an array of plants that guests can gaze
at while they dine, then take home with them at evening's end. The vessels
holding these miniature orchids are wrapped in fabric for more exotic appeal.
