Sponge cake wedding favors

Another edible treat, ice cream cookies can be personalized with the names of the guests, or they can be glued on the names of the bride and groom or the wedding date as a sweet (and delicious) keepsake.

Flower pots or personalized succulents

Plant an onion (tulip, hyacinth, daffodil) in a mini terracotta pot or splash on a succulent plant. Attach a parcel label with the guest’s name to each pot and it also serves as a place setting. Or print sticky labels with messages like “Thank you for being here to make our wedding day bloom”. Attach a packet of seeds and place one next to each place setting.

Temporary tattoo wedding gifts

While you are making a lifetime commitment, your guests shouldn’t have to. Even so, with these cute temporary tattoos they can still join in the fun and add a bit of branding for the big day. Opt for gold foil for extra shine.

cake pops

The new cake trend that we’re obsessed with right now is the cake pop. Regardless of whether you order made-to-measure items or conjure up your own, leave a cake pop wrapped in cellophane on each place setting and tie it with a bow.

Alcoholic wedding favors

Enjoy a wedding gift to enjoy – this Hotel Chocolat Salted Caramel Cocoa Vodka (50ml) is a brilliant choice. Just be careful that the little ones don’t get their hands on it!

Bookmark wedding gifts

These beautiful bookmarks by Jane Debono are a wonderful keepsake after the big day – and will remind guests of your celebrations long after your wedding.

Honey pots and jam jars

Fill small jars with jam, honey, candy or whatever you want. Present them with a gingham ribbon or with the name of the bride and groom on the label.

Candied apple

This autumn candy isn’t too difficult to make and looks fabulous wrapped in cellophane, tied with a ribbon and labeled with the wedding date and the name of the newlyweds. Perfect for an autumn wedding!

Soap wedding gifts

Why not create your own mini soaps? They’re pretty easy to make, and you can change the scent to suit the season of your wedding – try something rich like cedar for winter or a light floral touch for summer.

Buttonhole favors

How about a small buttonhole or a corsage for each guest? You can put it in a folded napkin. You don’t have to do anything complicated – a sprig of lavender is perfect for men and women, garnished with some greenery and wrapped in florist tape around the stems. Just choose a flower that doesn’t need to be kept in water.

Wedding gifts for children

Coloring books and crafts

For the little guests, put a coloring book with their name and some fancy new pencils next to their places. This can also entertain them if the speeches are a little too long.
