You can’t go wrong if you decide to give your wedding guests edible wedding favors as these are always appreciated. Normally they are of the sweet variety but there is no reason why savory favors cannot be supplied. Although it might not win any design awards, a nicely decorated, personalized wrapper covering a plain bar of candy, usually works well. There is no reason why the chocolate cannot be from a specialist purveyor which will really impress the guests. The wrapper can be generic if cost is an issue and then information about the wedding can be inserted so it can always be kept by the guests.

Many couples decide to personalize their favor even more by having a picture of them on the wrapper. Other edible wedding favors can come in the form of small pieces of candy in tins. There is also typically the option of personalizing the tin by including the wedding date and the name of the bride and the groom. The guests may eat the candy soon after the wedding but they can keep the candy tin as a reminder of your wedding; they can use it to store other small items such as change, sewing needles, rubber bands or virtually anything which is small enough to be stored in them. Candy will probably remain a favorite edible wedding favor for some time because it is so popular.

One unique way to give out candy as wedding favors is to use large glass bowls as the centerpieces for the tables and fill the bowls with the bride and grooms’ favorite types of candy. You can also supply a small themed container on the table for every wedding guest. You can guarantee it won’t take long before the guests start filling their boxes with the candy. If you are one of the small number of people that don’t like candy, you might like a cookie as your edible wedding favor. Using plain cookies keeps the cost down because they will look best in a presentation box possibly designed especially for the day.

Of course you could always go all the way and have your photos printed on the face of the cookie as well. There are many bakeries that can make these cookies for you in a variety of sizes and shapes; you just simply need to select a design and give the bakery a photo to use in the design process. Another category of edible wedding favors (although not strictly food) are beverages like tea, flavored coffees or cocoa for example. These too can be customized to suit the occasion and if you are going to all the effort of supplying something this exclusive, why shouldn’t they be customized. Once again, the packaging can contain information about the bride and groom and if it is a metal or plastic container it can be used at a later stage an will not go to waste. If you have not found any of these suggestions appealing, there is no reason why you cannot come up with something that is completely unique for your guests!
