Wedding Tips - Edible Wedding Favors

Tip: Coffee and Tea Wedding Favor Options

Coffee and tea are excellent choices for edible wedding favors. For brides and grooms looking to give their guests something unique as a wedding favor, a wedding tea collection is a great way to say "thank you "for sharing in that special day. The individually packaged tea bags are personalized with the wedding date and a simple saying like, "The Perfect Blend," or "Blended With Love." You can do the same with coffee bags and offer individualized coffee wedding favors for your guests. For both tea and coffee collections, choose the flavor or flavors of your choice and have your special saying printed on the front of the bags. For an little extra flare in your gift bag, add a few sugar cubes and a some sugar cookies to accompany your wedding favor treats.

Tip: Edible Wedding Favors That Spark Up A Conversation

Candy conversation hearts aren't just for Valentine's Day. These sweet pieces of love also make great wedding favors. Create special messages specific to the bride and groom like the wedding date or the name of the bride and groom. You can also get personal and include the names of your wedding party on the candy hearts. Or go a little more "conversational" with fun sayings like, "Kiss the Bride," "I Do," "To Have And To Hold," "Always & Forever," and more.

Put the conversational hearts in a little tin box, or wrap them in lace or cellophane for a decorative look and feel to your wedding day.

Tip: Herbs and Plants as Wedding Favors

Give some spice to your wedding favors by offering herbs as a wedding favor gift to your guest. Small potted plants and with herbs including basil, thyme, oregano or rosemary are a sweet way to keep your guests remembering your wedding day for months to come. Taking care of the herb plant isn't complicated, either. The guest simply waters the plant once a week and uses the herbs for their cooking flare. Tie the potted plant with a ribbon matching your wedding colors and a small card -- on one side of the card include your name and wedding date, and on the other side include instructions for caring for the herb plant. Wrap the bottom of the plant with foil that matches the color of your wedding.

Tip: Jordan Almonds and Other Candy Treats

Jordan almonds are a fun, edible wedding favor favorite.

The flowers can be used as favors at individual place settings or incorporated into a centerpiece or table decoration. The best thing about Jordan almonds? They last for many months, so your wedding favor never fades!

Tip: The History of Edible Wedding Favors

Did you know that the first wedding favor was actually distributed by European aristocrats? It was the bonbonniere - a small box made of crystal or porcelain with stones or sugar cubes inside . Sugar cubes and confections symbolized wealth and royalty to the common man. Sugar was eventually replaced by almonds - a sign of sweetness and well wishes to the couple's new life. Today, there are five Jordan almonds traditionally presented in a confection box as a wedding favors. The five almonds represent fertility, longevity, wealth, health and happiness.

Tip: The Oreo Cookie Wedding Favor

Want to really wow your wedding guests? The Wedding Chocolate Oreo® Cookie is a perfect treat for wedding favors! The cookies come drenched in either dark, milk or white chocolate and are decorated with sprinkles and icing. The wedding Oreo Cookie can also be designed with an icing replica of the bride and groom, two doves, love birds, and more on the top of the cookie.

One thing to keep in mind: these cookies are tasty, but chocolate does melt. During hot summer months, the cookie manufacturer may place your order in dry ice packaging to preserve the chocolate coating for your wedding favors. Make sure you ask your customer service agent about any additional costs before ordering and keep your time frame in focus. You don't want a bunch of chocolate covered, uniquely decorate Oreo cookie wedding favors lying around the house too long!

Tip: Truffles With a Wedding Theme

Everyone loves chocolate truffles, so why not share the love at your wedding and give your guests chocolate truffles wedding favors. Truffles come in a variety of flavors that you incorporate into the theme of your wedding. You can choose the flavor of truffle you want, or mix and match the truffles for your guests. Present each truffle on a table near the exit of the wedding ceremony with a note of thanks under each truffle for your guests to take home. Keep in mind that some truffles have liquor in them, so if you're trying to be conscious of little one's at your wedding, have an alternative wedding favor for the kids.

Make sure you consult your customer agent about shipping dates and times before you order. Remember, chocolate melts so if you live on the West Coast or you're getting married during summer months, you might have to adjust your shipping times and plans to ensure your truffles aren't melted before the wedding.

Tip: You Can't Go Wrong With Candy

It's hard to go wrong with candy. Did you know you could personalize popular candies like Hershey Kisses and M&M's for use at your wedding? Print the date on the candy and pass out bunches of kisses or candy hearts to your guests as wedding favors. Also consider personalized candy pillows with the color of your choice, placed in a clear pillow-shaped box and wrapped with a bow featuring the name of the bride and groom and the wedding date.
