Do me a favour...

Finding unique wedding favours can be a bit tricky but we have done our best to find a few that we think could capture that unique style you are looking for. So much so that one of us is actually having one of these ideas at our own wedding, but that's a surprise ;-)


Fortune Cookies...You could hide some really lovely messages to your guests inside or maybe a short sweet 'Thank you' would do. Whatever you choose this is a funky, fun wedding favour that we are sure your guests would love!

We have even found a recipe...http://allrecipes.com/recipe/fortune-cookies-i/




Badges...A cool way to have a personalised wedding favour. There are plenty of companies online that can make these for you and for a good price. You could have the date of your wedding so no one will ever forget, a photo of the happy couple, your favorite saying (Love Peace & Music) or maybe if you have your own badge making contraption you could have personalised name badges for every guest





 Mini Bubblegum Machines...THIS is a really fun, retro wedding favour and the kids would go mad for these too! 
We are guessing that something like this would be much more expensive than a favour like the badge for instance, but if you have the budget then it's probably worth it!





 Glasses, Lips and Mustaches On Sticks...We love this idea as a wedding favour, very easy, very simple and lots of fun. You could make these beauty's yourself or you can find them online to buy (we have even seen them on EBAY). A brilliant way of adding something extra to those wedding photos and something fun for the big kid's.




Vintage Key Tags...These would really add something to that vintage inspired wedding. There is something very cute and romantic to this wedding favour. You could also use them as place settings and have the guests names written on each tag. A lovely keepsake although finding this amount of keys might be difficult.




            Mix - Tape...Retro, fun, personal and something very cool for the musical couple's wedding. You could have your favourite songs made into a mix-tape for each guest BUT do remember that (unfortunately) the tape player is becoming extinct :-( You could do it on a CD instead or this tape idea could just be a keepsake and not actually functional, it would still look good.

So here are some ideas that we think work very well as wedding favours, if you are looking for something a little different. 

Please leave comments about any other ideas that you think people might like...we want to know what else is out there!
