When it comes to picking favors, seasonal products still give you
limitless options. And fall wedding favors are no different! There are
candle holders, bottle stoppers, bookmarks, champagne flutes, and so
many more things that are designed specifically for autumn themed
weddings.
Fall is the season of rich colors, warm lighting, and cozy,
inviting spaces - all the things you want to emulate throughout your
wedding day and reception. And it's easy to carry on that theme with
appropriately selected fall wedding favors - favors that evoke the
spirit of the season and give your guests a beautiful reminder of your
wedding day.
When choosing fall wedding favors, remember your theme or color
set. Bright yellow sunflowers are always big for autumn themed weddings
as are rich red, brown, yellow, and orange autumn leaves. However, fall
wedding favors with bright, deep colors will help set the stage at each
person's plate setting. But today's bride wants to give more than just
mints or candy; she wants to offer her guests a little gift to thank
them for coming - one that is not only functional but well worth the
price.
Our Favorite Favors for Autumn Themed Weddings
Here are our favorite fall wedding favors that incorporate both
the beauty of the season and show your guests how much you appreciate
them coming!
1. Wildflower Seed Favors: Give your guests a way to
look forward to warmer weather - as well as integrate more green
initiatives into their routine - with wildflower or tree seed favors.
The younger set will especially love this, and it will give them a
chance to plant a beautiful garden with the help of their parents. Seed
favors are ideal for environmentally-friendly brides and grooms who
want to make a difference at their autumn themed weddings or simply
serve as a way for couples to celebrate the birth of something new.
2. Glass Coaster Sets: Everyone loves coasters. They
keep furniture free from water stains and can be customized with names,
dates, or special pictures as well as pastoral fall scenes that are the
perfect backdrop to autumn themed weddings. We suggest glass in
particular because it fits with almost everyone's design scheme and is
a decidedly elegant option for fall wedding favors.
3. Wine Bottle Stoppers and Bottle Openers:
Functionality is the name of the game for many brides who are shopping
for autumn wedding favors. And guests love favors that they can use.
Many wine bottle stoppers or bottle openers are painted in lovely,
vibrant fall colors or are embellished with a beautiful sunflower or
autumn leaf as the decoration.
4. Fall-themed Photo Albums: Many couples nowadays
provide disposable cameras at each table so guests can snap away at
events the bride and groom may have missed. If you and your loved one
are more sentimental about the images your guests capture, why not
provide everyone with a fall-themed photo album, so they can put their
own pictures from the wedding in it? And whenever they browse through
the album, they'll remember your happy day and the role they played in
it.
5. Cookie Cutters: With the holidays right around the
corner, cookie cutters - either in autumnal shapes or other fun shapes
you choose (hearts, doves, stars) - are an excellent gift to give
guests at autumn themed weddings. After all, functionality plays a role
- and your guests will admire your "good taste" when they find these
lovely keepsake fall wedding favors at their plates.
6. Candles and/or Tea Light Holders: Flickering candle
light is oh-so-romantic, so shouldn't you share that essence of fall
with your guests? Adorn your reception tables with pretty fall leaf
shaped candle or tea light holder, and you'll be hearing, "What a
wonderful favor!" all night long. These fall wedding favors allow your
guests to bring the memories of your special day as well as the warmth
of fall into their home.
Autumn Themed Weddings Are Meant to Be Warm, Cozy Affairs
The mystery and beauty of the fall season creates the perfect
setting for autumn themed weddings. Fall is the season of
transformation - an ideal that likely carries over into your marriage
vows. From invitations and decorations to the cake and gown, you have
all of your ducks in a row so to speak. But choosing fall wedding
favors doesn't have to be complicated, and you certainly don't have to
match your theme exactly. Just don't forget to spice up each table at
the reception with thoughtfully chosen wedding favors that showcase the
fall season - and your wedding's style - appropriately!
