Ideas for
Small Weddings
Chocolates:
How could you possibly go wrong with the world's
most favorite flavor? The possibilities are
limitless. Merchants have available everything from
personalized M&Ms to fine European candies to hot
cocoa. Local bakeries and specialty shops may also
offer you elegant and unique options. If you prefer
the internet drr out links page for some interesting
on-line merchants. If you are trying to stay within
a tight budget, Andes mints in organza bags can actually
look very nice. At a wedding I attended in December
the candy was cherry malted milk balls. The red
color went well with the Christmas theme and they were
tasty to.
Jordan
Almonds:
The tradition of jourdan almonds comes
from the Middle East, Greece, and Italy. To Italians
the almonds and their sugar coating represent the bitter
sweetness of married life. Generally, five almonds
given in tulle bags signify five wishes for the
couple's new life together: health, wealth, happiness,
fertility, and longevity. They can be placed at each place
setting or served on trays. The bags or even
decorative boxes offer brides an opportunity to personalize
the favor .
Wines:
Technically I supposed wine and champagne
are drinkable favors but they are ones your guests may
thoroughly enjoy. A great tradition at wedding
feasts, wines are festive and elegant. Many companies
now offer personalized labels with your names and the
wedding dates of full and minature bottles. You can
also make your own labels with kits from craft stores such
as AC Moore and Michaels. Wines don't
necessarily need any additional decoration but you can add
creative touches such as ribbons printed with your
names. Wine glass charms are also a nice touch.
Before you invest your money in wine favors be sure
you TASTE it. Otherwise it might
be memorable to your guests for reasons you did not
intend. Price does not necessarily determine
taste. Look for a store or wholesaler that is willing
to make a deal.
Coffee and Tea
Favors:
Most people enjoy coffee
or tea on a daily basis. Special flavors and blends
of both make outstanding
wedding
favors. Depending upon your
budget and creativity, you can use the coffee wedding
favor to make an exceptional gift that your guests
will appreciate. If you create your own packaging
coffeebeandirect.com is an outstanding
merchant. For two years I have been
buying all of my coffee and tea there and I have never
been disappointed.
