Wedding favors make a nice momento of your wedding but often come wrapped in many layers of paper and ribbon which are thrown away when your guests unwrap them. Not very environmental friendly at all!
Do you really need fancy wrapping for your favors or is there a way to present environmentally friendly wedding favors without wasting too much money and resources on packaging? Read on for some environmentally friendly wedding favor tips below.
Do Away With Boxes And Packaging
Present your wedding favors in their own packaging without adding additional boxes or ribbons. If you are giving your guests a sweet little gift of home made jam or honey, it is nice already on its own with just a personalised tag without packaging it further. Personalised CDs make great favors too without having to decorate them any further!
Give A Green Wedding Favor
Go green and give a wedding favor that will continue to grow in your guests’ gardens! Potted plants and flowers make wonderful environmentally friendly favors because they keep growing and sustaining the environment. A little tree or plant in their garden is certainly a nice way to remind your guests of how wonderful your wedding was.
Present Your Favors On A Plate
Perhaps you’re thinking of giving your guests cookies, mini cupcakes or fruits for your wedding favor as a pre-dinner snack. Instead of doing individually wrapped favors, creatively arrange them on a nice plate in the centre of each table for your guests to help themselves to. It saves you the trouble and money of wrapping each favor and even doubles up as a nice table centrepiece!
Taking your wedding favors one step further and making them environmentally friendly helps you save money on unnecessary packaging and reduces the pressure on our already troubled Earth. Try it and be an environmentally conscious bride!
