Personalized favors are still a relatively new idea, but they’re gaining in popularity among many wedding parties. For mere pennies, you can have your names and wedding date etched onto just about anything, such as boxes, wrappers, bars of soap, flasks, wine glasses, water bottles, lip balms, mint tins and more! You may also want to consider personalizing the wedding party’s grooms men and bridesmaids favors too, although these gifts should be a little more expensive and thoughtful to show your appreciation for all they’ve helped you with. Here are some thoughtful favor ideas to help you get started.
One of the best personalized gifts for the groom’s men is a customized flask. At www.flaskshop.com, you can find wedding favor ideas starting as low as $22. There are tan, black leather, stainless steel, brown leather and faux crocodile flasks available. Most flasks come with monogrammed letters and small funnels. For $40, you can even insert a photograph into the flask! At www.eflasks.com, there are unique wedding favor gift sets that include a shot glass, funnel and flask for $21.95 (or 5/$100). At www.myweddingreceptionideas.com, you can find camouflage flasks ($22.50), rounded flasks ($23.25), plaid/leather flasks ($24.75), multi-colored flasks ($19.50) and vintage stainless steel flasks ($18).
Personalized favors are a nice touch for wedding party gifts. At www.rumors.com, you can buy a deluxe wine box gift set, which includes a rosewood box with gold hinge, wine collar, wine pourer, wine stopper, wine opener and glass thermometer. The wine bottle itself is not included, but you can buy your own favorite and drop it in this gift box set, which retails for just under $40. Personalized compact mirrors can be bought for as low as $7.96, but you’d never guess, based on how elegant they look! This same site also includes personalized wedding favors for less than $3, like frosted votive candles, glass coasters, silver heart-shaped measuring spoons, ice cream scoops, bottle openers, wine charms and wine stoppers.
To save money, some people prefer to go with custom party favor boxes, rather than personalized favors. For instance, at www.favorsbyserendipity.com, you can personalize tuxedo and wedding dress favor boxes, which can be filled with breath mints, tea bags, cocktail drink mixes, coffee, hot chocolate, spices or your favorite candy. These favor boxes can be purchased for $1-$3, depending on the design and can be stuffed for even less, making them one of the most cost-effective gift types. Often times these favors double in function, acting as a take-home souvenir and a placeholder!
