Flower Pot Favors

As a bride and groom, you spend months and months planning for your big day and when it finally comes, you can feel like it's over in a moment.



But what if the memory of your wedding could keep growing and growing even after it's all over??

These custom seed pack & matching pot wedding favors we found on Style Me Pretty are such an awesome idea to keep the memory of your special day alive! 

Step 1: Put together the design you want to go on your seed packet. Once that is finished, print it on the seed packet template.

Step 2: Fold the packet up and use double sided tape to seal the edges. Leave the top open to put seeds inside. Once the seeds are inserted seal the top edge so those seeds can’t fall out. 

Step 3: Decorate your pot. 

And you're done (you can find more detailed instructions here)! What do you guys think about this as a wedding favor??

Korbel Wedding Favors

So as it is almost February and the New Year fizzle is slowly dying down, I feel there should be a new reason to celebrate-so break out the champagne! Well....at least think about it!



These miniature Korbel favors we saw on EleGALA are such a cute idea for your guests at your wedding to take home!



Why not keep the celebrating going even after its all over?!?

Do these favors not just make you all bubbly inside?!?

Wedding Gift for Mom

Wedding day is a bride's big day-the day she's dreamed about since she was a little girl. But the bride is not the only one who it's a big day for.



From the time her daughter is a little girl, a mother dreams of the day she will help her daughter into her wedding gown, and the man who will stand beside her. A mother teaches her son to be the perfect man, so that she can one day watch him marry the perfect woman.



While the wedding day is filled with happiness and laughter, there are also those tears of joy that flow as well-trust me, I've done a few of these. These handkerchiefs from Etsy are such thoughtful, adorable gifts for a bride to give to her mother and/or mother-in-law to keep their eyes dry during the day.

How sweet are these?? I'm not sure how I'm going to keep it together when Gabriel or Zachary are walking down the aisle, I already cry at every Mother Son Dance! 

 Have any of you moms ever gotten anything special from your bride or groom on their wedding day?

Birdseed Heart Favors

One of the best parts about Christmas is the tree, especially when it's all lit up and decorated!

When I picture forests of pine trees I also think of those cute little birds that live in them, which reminded me of this fantastical wedding favor idea I saw on Intimate Weddings.

These birdseed heart favors are just wonderful and can be used as decorations inside the house or placed outside for the birds when your guests get home! They're so easy to make and SO adorable!



In fact, one of our brides used these very favors at her wedding, so we got to see firsthand how awesomesauce these favors are!

How preciously perfect, right? Here is how you can make your very own birdseed favors:

Step 1: Mix the flour, water, gelatin, and corn syrup. Add birdseed and stir well. 

Step 2: Press the birdseed mixture firmly into the heart shaped cookie cutter. Make sure you wipe the cookie cutter down with cooking spray so it doesn't stick when it's done!

Step 3: Using a chopstick or skewer, make a hole near the top to thread the twine through. 

Step 4: Remove cookie cutter carefully. Let dry for 6-8 hours. 

You can find more detailed instructions at Intimate Weddings!

A little bird told me that these favors are to die for. Do you agree?

S'more Love, please!

I think it can be an almost proven fact that everyone craves a good s'more once winter weather roles around (or anytime you want to reminisce about that magical summer at {insert childhood camp name here}), which is why a S'more inspiration board is something that we simply had to create!

Ring, Table Numbers, Cake, Groom, S'more, S'more Love, Stars & Graham Crackers, Dress

The colors are perfect for a winter wedding and your guests will adore all of the marsmallowy-chocolatey-goodness that your favors will provide.



What to do for S'more wedding favors, you ask? Well, we found these adorable s'more wedding favors on Pinterest and fell in love! They are so perfect for guests to take home and make their own treats.



...just in case there wasn't adequate time to do so during the reception (but who are we kidding, there's always room for s'more).

How much would you love "s'more love" when you leave your next wedding??

Scrabble Wedding Details

I have a confession. I'm a HUGE scrabble fan. Receiving triple points on a word makes me squeal in happiness. And Words with Friends doesn't help my obsession. There are many evenings where I can be found in the zone....

So, when I found these fantastical ways to incorporate Scrabble pieces into your wedding, my inner-nerd was super excited!

First up, customized Scrabble Coasters we found at Intimate Weddings:

DIY Week Part 2

So I'm not sure I've ever met anyone (well except for my friend, Sissy... but I won't count her) who didn't like marshmallows, and how could you not when they're as fun as these are! These Marshmallow Pops from Austin Weddings would be such a great idea for weddings favors for your guests!

This could be a great project to enlist the help of your bridesmaids to do with you just before the big day!



OR!!! What a fun idea for a dessert station! Maybe it's just me, but I think I'd be glued there! "Oh, where is Melissa.... oh that's right, she's at the marshmallow station - still...."


What have been some of your favorite wedding favors??
