For memory worthy
favors, choose things that either depict the destinations culture, lifestyle or
are locally sourced/custom made at the wedding location itself. You could also
pick some functional goods like shawls, potted succulents or sunglasses depending
on the event/theme. People are more
likely to take back stuff that’s easy to carry back in their luggage, something
that’s functional and pretty afcourse!

pretty & add the rustic touch.
Moreover succulents are low maintenance
plants, super pretty and easy on the pocket!

weddings & chilly nights.

Pool party on your wedding itinerary?
Hand your guests
custom printed bags with goodies they can enjoy by the pool. Custom koozies,

Regional Wedding Favors
Favors local to the destination are an amazing and
inexpensive gifting idea. Many couples will throw in a miniature adult beverage
for their guest, but to keep up with your destination theme, find out what the
favorite local liquor or beverage is. Print out a sweet personal note attached
to each miniature bottle and your guest will have a fantastic keepsake from
your wedding day.
