Unique Beach Wedding Favors
Beach weddings are becoming increasingly popular, both at home & abroad. The sea can provide much inspiration for wedding favors & whilst you can buy ready made beach themed favors, it always a nice idea to make your own.
For some creative, unique & stylish wedding favors, take a look at these ideas:
Starfish
Starfish are a key symbol of the sea & a popular motif for wedding stationery for a beach wedding. Starfish can be bought from seaside gift stores fairly inexpensively. Tie some ribbon to one ‘leg’ of the starfish or around the center & attach a thank you tag.
Your guests can use them as a decorative element at home, perhaps in the bathroom or kitchen.
Pebbles
Find some nice flat round pebbles which are roughly about the same size. I wouldn’t condone taking them directly from the beach, so visit a garden center for a bag of river washed pebbles.
Using a metallic marker pen or other suitable pen write your guests names on one side & a thank you message on the other. These then can double as place markers & wedding favors. Your guests can use them as paperweights or decorative objects at home.
Sea Goody Bags
There are many cosmetic & beauty products on the market which utilize the minerals in sea water & seaweed. Give your guests goody bags containing some of these products.
If your budget is tight buy big bottles & decant into smaller bottles, include mini soaps, sponges & a scented votive candle, for a real sea inspired spa gift bag.
Magnets
Use things from the sea to create fridge magnets. Look for interesting sea shells, small starfish, & pretty pebbles. You will find magnets at craft stores; make sure you buy magnets large enough to hold the thing they are attached to in place. You need to make sure that the things the magnets are attached to are big enough to hide the magnet & have a suitable spot on which to attach the magnet.
Alternatively, visit your beach location (if possible) & take a photograph. Try going at sunset or sunrise for a stunning scene. Alternatively take photographs of items you find on the beach, particularly if you are adept at taking arty shots. These can be used to create fridge magnets by using magnet kits which you will find at craft stores.
Seaside Fun
Give your guests wedding favors which will allow them to have fun at the beach. How about buckets & spades & challenge them to a sand castle building competition? Or roll-up beach mats, beach towels, beach games, beach balls or parasols.
A Cold Treat
Arrange for an ice cream van to call after your wedding breakfast or during the buffet & give each guest a ticket for a free ice cream of their choice.
Alternatively make your own ice lollies with personalized sticks – add your thank you message or a joke; make sure there is somewhere cold enough at your reception venue for you to store them & then get your flower girls &/or page boys to hand them out.
