5 Unique Wedding Favors That Are Actually Useful!

Wedding favors are a great way to show your loved ones just how much you value them and their presence on your big day. But if you’re going to go this extra mile, make sure that you choose something that guests will actually like and won’t end up in the trash. Here are five ideas for unique wedding favors!

• Palm Fans That Bring the Fiesta!

If you’re having an outdoor wedding in the summer or a warmer location, your guests will appreciate anything you can do to keep them cool. Our Fiesta Fans are as stylish as they are functional. Rather than everyone resorting to using their programs or invitations as fans, they’ll have something unique that they can reuse and flaunt with pride.

These fans also make a fun addition to your dance floor. Your loved ones will look extra sassy while they fan away the sweat. Guests will also have a great time striking a posing with their fans for the cameras whether they’re on the dance floor or at their tables.

• Photo-Worthy Sunglasses

Another great option for a favor for an outdoor wedding, in particular, is a cool pair of sunglasses. People of all ages can always use another good pair of sunglasses, and they don’t necessarily need to be super-expensive for your guests to enjoy them. This also will be an automatic photo opportunity for your guests since they can all do their matching sunglasses!

• Fun and Functional Travel Mugs

We’re all on the go so frequently and many of us must have a caffeinated beverage to get us through the day. That’s why you can never have too many travel cups which are another fantastic idea for wedding favors that are useful. Find one classic design for each guest to take home or even better, buy travel cups in a variety of colors and styles and let your guests choose what they like the most. This is also a great idea if you have coffee at the wedding or the reception. Rather than having disposable cups, you could ask guests to fill up their new travel mugs, as long as the cups have been washed of course!

• Charming Candles

With their limited lifespan, everyone could use more candles! Choose one or a few of your favorite scents and you’ll be sure to impress guests with these unique wedding favors. You could even tie your wedding theme into your choice of candles. For example, if one of your wedding colors is lavender, make them lavender-scented purple candles that will perfectly complement the theme.

For the woman with a large makeup collection, a toiletry bag is a great way to keep your essentials together at all times. Toiletry bags aren’t just for women.
