Environmental friendly and organic weddings have become a huge trend. Organic wedding favors are a great way to incorporate some environmental friendliness to your wedding. However, if you don’t really like the idea of serving your guests apples, why not consider having organic packaging for your wedding favors instead of plastic bags and polyester ribbons that will not biodegrade? Read below for some great ideas on making your wedding favors a little more eco friendly.
Use Paper Bags For Your Wedding Favors
Brown paper bags may remind you of groceries but its amazing how pretty and rustic it can look with just some colourful paper ribbons. Punch a hole on the top of mini brown paper bags and thread some pretty satin or paper ribbons through to make a pretty eco-friendly wedding favor package!
Wedding Favor Tip: Be careful not to use the paper bag for favors that are wet or has moisture as that might cause it to break.
Use Reusable Canvas Bags
Reusable canvas bags are the new black now as shopping centres everywhere start cutting back on plastic bags. Help your guests be environmentally conscious by packaging your wedding favors in a nice personalised canvas bag.
Wedding Favor Tip: Foldable canvas bags make a great gift as they are easy to carry around in handbags or pockets.
Give Useful Wedding Favors
Instead of giving a pretty knick knack that guests will have no use for, give useful wedding favors your guests can use in their own homes. Pretty wooden jewelry boxes or woven containers make wonderful storage for jewellery or keys.
Wedding Favor Tip: The storage box doubles up as packaging too! Place some small sweets or traditional sugar almonds inside for an extra treat!
Your little bid for the environment actually helps your guests be more eco-friendly too!
With Love,
