Cheap Wedding Favors

By Yours Truly

Weddings are a time of cheer, joy, romance, hope... and oh yes, before we forget, hefty expenses. Just about everything that a bride to be sets her hearts on for her big day will come with a high price tag. If you're on a limited budget, scrimping on your dress or the food might not seem very appealing. In a situation like this, it makes more sense to scout around for inexpensive wedding favors.

Fortunately, cheap wedding favors don't have to mean unattractive gifts that don't appeal. With a little imagination and some serious hunting, you can find favors that will make an impression without making a dent in your wallet.

Here are 10 great picks for cheap wedding favor ideas:

1. Pick out little mini baskets from thrift stores. Fill these with candy, and insert a little silk flower or mini trinket for a touch of glam. Wrap with a tulle bow.

2. Stainless steel mint tins in circular or heart shapes can also be used to contain candies and nuts. For an extra special touch, write a trivia question related to you or the groom and paste them on the outside of each fold up box. Put in a slip of paper with the answer inside and watch as guests join in the excitement of your own personal wedding trivia!

3. Choose from a variety of little bags on line - beach bags, silver, white, and blue mesh bags and fill these with Jordan almonds. Or try personalized candy; many companies offer these at affordable pieces. Remember to tag each bag with a printed tag that has your names, the date and a "Thank You" lettered out in a beautiful font.

4. Candles are eternal in their appeal, and are available in enough price ranges to ensure that you find frosted or votive candles that are within your budget.

5. Key chain wedding favors may seem a little done to death, but can be personalized with your names to create a cheap wedding favor that's affordable and pretty. If you're having a themed wedding, choose key chains that blend with the mood. For instance flip flop key chains set the mood for a summer or beach wedding.

6. Give a gift that will keep growing. A little potted plant is inexpensive and can easily be brought in bulk at a nursery near you. Don't forget to include the name of the plant and instructions for its care.

7. Seed packet wedding favors are always popular, symbolizing as they do new beginnings and fresh starts. You can easily make these by purchasing mini pails in bulk, and filling each with a little paper seed sachet or pieces of fabric that can be used to hold the seeds.

8. Cookies are easy to bake and cheap to order if you get a bulk of them made. Personalize them, and decorate with candy or sprinkles for a truly delicious wedding favor.

9. Simple chocolate hearts or squares can be packaged in a square of gold gauze and tied with a ribbon. Remember, the most inexpensive favors always look pricey when packaged right. Appearance is everything.

10. Finally, go online and hunt for affordable wedding favors that are simple, yet pretty. With a variety to choose from you'll have no problem finding something that speaks to you, without burning a hole in your pocket.

9 Cheap Wedding Favor Ideas to DIY For Your Wedding

by Angela Tay

There are many types of wedding favors you can easily purchase for your guests. But some couples prefer preparing for their own wedding favors for a more personalised touch as it also signifies gratitude to their guests for attending one of the biggest events of their life.

I have compiled some DIY wedding favor ideas you can use if you are on a tight budget!

1) Bake cookies and personalise your message on your cookie. You can even make it a fortune cookie (with words of wisdom or a set of numbers for the lottery fanatic)

2) Buy sweets or candy in bigger lots and repackage them into smaller sachets or boxes. You can customise your box with your own message by using sticker labels.

3) Get bags of potpourri and make smaller scented bags out of them. You can get ready made sachets or buy nice fabric to make your own. Tie the sachets up with lovely ribbons or lace.

4) Make creative coasters by cutting fancy shapes out of corkboard or buying die-cut ones and customising them with your own message stickers.

5) For an oriental twist, you can buy wholesale lots of wooden chopsticks (real ones, not disposable ones!) and repackage them nicely in pairs. These are quite practical and it symbolises well for the wedding as chopsticks always comes in pairs, just like every couple!

6) For summer weddings, hand-held fans are a pretty favor to give. You can personalise them with your own message and the guests can take them home after the event.
   



7) Gardening lovers will like the idea of receiving little sachets of seeds that they can try growing. I think my mum will be one of them. Haha.

8) If you have a Polaroid camera, you can take instant pictures with your guests on the actual day, punch a hole immediately and tie a ribbon on top to make a really unique bookmark!

9) Personalised fridge magnets are also a practical favor idea. You can print them yourself or get a professional printer to do it for you. You can choose lovely scenic pictures or cute pet images or even your own wedding portrait and put your own message on it.

These DIY wedding favor ideas could probably save you a bit of money. But if you are a really lazy bride, or you absolutely have no time to DIY your own wedding favour, its best to leave it to the professionals. A wedding favor does not need to be really expensive, it's most often the thought that counts. In my opinion, the best favor is something that will leave your guests sweet memories of the wedding and is practical enough to be used even after the wedding itself.

Cheap Homemade Wedding Favor Ideas

By Holly White

Table setting

      The average wedding costs a total of $20,000 from start to finish. While this day is certainly special, there are ways to reduce the expenses and alleviate the financial burden. One of the options is to make homemade wedding favors instead of purchasing pre-made favors.
   
Candy, Cookies or Chocolates

      Candy, cookies and chocolates are wedding favor classics. Candies such as "M&Ms", or "Hershey's Kisses" can be purchased in bulk at most wholesale stores. For cookies and chocolates, consider using a special family recipe and explaining the significance of this favor on the packaging.
 
Popcorn Balls

      Both thrifty and creative, popcorn balls offer a delicious snack for guests. Recipes for popcorn balls can be found at websites such as Better Homes and Gardens, and can be customized to fit the occasion. Consider using food coloring to match the balls to the wedding colors, or press the hot popcorn mixture into mini cake molds to form shapes such as hearts, flowers or butterflies.

Birdseed gifts

      Birdseed feeders are a useful and creative present. For these charms, mix 1 cup of birdseed with two frothy-beaten egg whites and press the mixture into oven-safe molds. Use a pen to poke a hole in the tops for a ribbon, and bake at 250 for an hour. Let them cool, then thread ribbon and a custom card-stock monogram through each of the holes.

Chocolate-Dipped Spoons
  
      Give a gift that guests can enjoy the next morning with their coffee. Chocolate-dipped spoons can be made with little effort or cost. Disposable spoons can be purchased in any color, including silver and gold. Once the spoon is dipped in melted chocolate, food coloring, sprinkles, nuts or spices can be added to personalize the appearance and flavor.

Handmade soap favors

      Scented soaps can be both functional and decorative for the guests. Wrap the soap in paper decorated with the couple's monogram and a note about the scent. Finish off with a bow of raffia, twine, lace or ribbon.

Seeded Place Cards
  
      For the environmentally conscious couple, send guests away with a gift that will last a lifetime. Construct the overall design of the place cards, and choose a distinct shape that will be glued onto each card. Using either recycled or rice paper, cut out the desired shapes for each card. Purchase a sufficient amount of flower seeds to place a small amount on each shape. For example, if using wild flower seeds, only five to eight are necessary. Utilizing a washable, clear-drying glue, lightly cover the shape cutouts and sprinkle the seeds on top. Let dry overnight, and then glue onto the place cards. Give planting instructions on the back of the cards.

Packaging

      Packaging for your favors can also be affordable. Simple white boxes can be ordered online; then customize them with craft items such as ribbons or beads. Tulle, cellophane or tissue paper can be used to wrap favors.
      Finally, top off these delightful packages with customized monogram cards, designed and printed from home. Card stock or scrapbook paper can add a professional touch that will have guests wondering where the favors were purchased.


--------
Wedding favors takes a lot of budget in a wedding, but you can cut your budget by doing personalized wedding favors. Just go to wedding shops and compare their prices then go for the cheaper wedding favors and choose the favors you want. Just be creative and imaginative!

Cute and Cheap Wedding Favors

Cheap. It's such a drab sounding word ... until you realize you're about to put on a ten, even twenty thousand dollar party. Suddenly, the word "cheap" takes on a whole new shine.

So, you want to follow the time-honored tradition of thanking your guests for coming — wedding favors — but you don't have a lot left over after the photographers, videographers and calligraphers? No problem. Happily enough, the cheapest wedding favor is often the best-loved: candy.

Guests love candy, because it doesn't require them to dig a hole, water anything, or find a place for another mismatched keepsake. You'll love candy, because it makes for a not-only-cheap, but interesting wedding favor. You can expand on the theme with exotic herbs (bought in bulk, of course) and still come in under budget. If you're really a guerilla shopper, the world's your oyster, but let's start with the candy.

For cost-conscious brides, the hunt for a cheap wedding favor begins with:

    * Buying spices and candy in bulk.
    * Buying favor boxes, bags, jars or tins online from wholesalers, or possibly Ebay.
    * Buying at online or bricks & mortar clearance sales.


Cheap Bulk Spices and Candy

An insane number of cheap favors can be made from candy and spices. Not only are they inexpensive, they're also appreciated by all alike: restive children, snack-loving male guests, clutter-conscious marrieds. For cheap but chic choices, consider:

    * White "conversation" hearts with personalized sayings
    * Jordan almonds in fresh, new colors and foil coatings
    * Glamorous, glittering rock candy on a stick
    * chocolate foiled coins
    * Jelly Bellies in your wedding colors
    * salt water taffy (especially for beach weddings)
    * candy corn, in traditional or offbeat shapes
    * gummies in novel shapes and flavors (white and milk-chocolate covered gummy bears, gummy Peach O's, hearts and cola bottles, strawberries & cream or watermelon, gummy mice for Cinderella brides ...)
    * Chocolate kiss "rose" bouquets
    * "Concession counter" candy: Runts, Jawbreakers, french 'burnt' peanuts, Crazy Bananas
    * M&Ms in your wedding's custom colors
    * Retro candy from the 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's

Good places to buy cool candy in bulk are:

    * Your local large grocery store, bulk section
    * Oriental Trading Company: eclectic selection, great prices
    * CandyDirect.com: cool bulk candy including 'gourmet' brands
    * Candy You Ate as a Kid: retro favorites organized by decade

Don't forget that you can get dramatic by combining your candy with elegant cookies (try pearl-sugared shortbread in interesting shapes), and hand-molded chocolates.

You can also make your own gourmet popcorn balls in fascinating flavors for a cheap wedding favor. Try gourmet popcorn recipes, like Macadamia Nut, Cinnamon Red Hots, and Popcorn Caramel Apple! "Our love just keeps on poppin'..."

But what if wedding sweets just aren't your thing? Then try a sachet of spices with an accompanying poem or recipe. This is aromatic, elegant and totally romantic.

Another cute possibility? Custom tea packets. Design a tea packet featuring your names and a soft wedding image, and cover one pre-packaged bag of tea per guest.


Buying Cheap Boxes, Bags, Jars or Tins

Now that you have the cheap favor fillers, it's time to think about packaging. Honestly, packaging can be more fun than the favors, what with those brushed-aluminum watch tins and octogonal glass jars you see in magazines. But the costs can climb.

Often you can find some of the lowest prices for packaging on eBay, although the selection isn't always perfect. Personally, I love eBay, but I have also had a problem here or there, so I caution you: try to avoid buying key items for a high-stress event like a wedding, unless you have plenty of lead time. I've learned the hard way that if a seller doesn't stand behind their product or just kind of wanders away, you don't have much recourse and soon you're out of time.

Fortunately, there are 'regular' online stores that have super-cheap pricing plus a solid reputation. Here are a few you can buy from with confidence:

    * Papermart: This plain-looking site has cheap packaging, plus a great reputation for quality and service. You can find almost anything you'd think of here.
    * USBox: Another tried & tested site with great, cheap products.
    * If you can't find what you want above, try Specialty Bottle.
    * Oriental Trading Company also sells wedding favor boxes cheaply.

Okay, good! Now you've got your packing out of the way. That means it's time for the wacky, crazy world of ...


Bricks & Mortar or Online Clearance Sales

All bets are off now. Who knows what you'll find? Not me, because this step requires you to haunt the deepest reaches of your local bricks & mortar offerings (think Michaels, Joanna's, Pier One Imports, Ikea), or the tiniest niches of not-very-large websites.

Sweet tchotchkes have been found at craft stores for almost nothing, like those little glass swans and slippers you fill with candy and wrap up in tulle. Michael's tends to put grotesquely generous coupons in the newspaper every few weeks (ask your friends and family to collect them). Ikea has been known to cast out lovely glassware for a quarter apiece. Do your shopping!

Wow! Making wedding favors are so affordable yet stylish. With the economy crisis right now it would really help to have cheap wedding favors. Enjoy!
