Unusual Wedding Favors

American Wedding Invitations -
If you are getting married soon, you are probably trying to decide what type of favors you want to give out to your guests. Some people like to go with the traditional because these are easy to find and dont need a lot of work. If you want something truly different, however, you might want to go in search of some unusual wedding favors to make your day a little more tailored to who you are. There are many great ideas out there, or you can come up with your own. I went to a wedding once that definitely had unusual wedding favors. The couple had canned applesauce to give out to their guests. The applesauce was homemade by a family member, and was chosen because they had an October wedding. Where we live, October is a popular time for apples and other fall like items. These unusual wedding favors were definitely perfect for their outdoor wedding high on the hill among the changing fall colors. Yet another friend gave out homemade and canned salsa. You can search online for some unusual wedding favors. Think of the things you love, and then do a search for favors and that hobby. For example, if you love to skydive, and it is something you do often, you might try a search for skydive wedding favors. You may or may not come up with something, but it is worth a shot. Even a search for unusual wedding favors plus the season (summer, spring, etc.) might yield some interesting results. If you are still striking out, go to your local craft stores and just look at the things you can buy. Some thing may come to you while you are browsing. You may even find ideas in Spencers or other specialty stores. You can also think of your own unusual wedding favors if you think hard enough. If you are into gardening, perhaps you might want to give out pots of flowers. You can buy planters, fill them with soil, and add the seeds you want. You can then give out your personalized planters with instructions on how to water and take care of the plants. The ideas you can come up with for unusual wedding favors are limitless. If you cant seem to come up with anything, give yourself a little time. Something will probably pop into your mind when you least expect it.
