Asian wedding favors can be used to highlight a wedding with an oriental flare. The most obvious wedding favor would be fortune cookies. These are available in the traditional style or chocolate dipped. You can further personalize this option with the fortune. How about adding a special phrase or saying that may have been featured in the wedding ceremony, or adding you’re names and wedding date is another way to personalize the fortune cookies.

Hi Christine – Thanks for your comment
You should be able to find them quite easily in Chinatown, Petaling St (if you’re in KL) or for a lot cheaper in markets in Bangkok.
