Yet, the "best" favors have been anything edible!

The best favor was a hand blown glass purple rose with a a 3-4 inch long stem with two green leaves. After 5 years, I still have it. The bride had a friend who crafted with blown glass. Each rose was unique. She hand packed them in little boxes with a thank you label on the box. Someone handed them out to each lady guest as they left. Another person handed out some jordon almonds and chocolate to the men. If you are lucky enough to have the talent or know someone who can give you a great price, this was a truly beautiful favor. Have been to many many weddings, candy, cookies, wine, are common. CDs with music is nice, small picture frames with picture of bride and groom is also nice. One wedding favor near the holidays was a hand made snowflake ordament from the couple, which was also nice. The plastic cutesy stuff to me is a waste of time and money.

Best = any of the edible favors I have received over the years. The best was last summer; my Sri Lankan girlfriend gave out two types of pastries that I never tasted before. Very memorable, and very delicious.

Candy because it was edible…but I received a pen and I liked it because I could use it! I’m always needing pens lol!
The bride and groom put their name on them and the date they were married!

The best I’ve seen are edible favors. They seem to go over best. They aren’t personalized and they actually have a purpose. Not many people are going to pass up free candy. Even if they are on a diet, they may take a few pieces home to indulge on later.

I once saw heart shaped teaspoons, that was cute. They weren’t personalized and you could use them in your kitchen. Also, I once saw a cookie cutter. Again, not something people are going to run home and use. But, they might throw it in their baking items. It’s one of those things that people will keep because it can be used for something.

I would keep the teaspoons and the cookie cutters. I might use them in my kitchen. I don’t think I would hold on to personalized votives or notepads. I once saw mini-teapots. Again, if it doesn’t have a solid purpose; I’m just going to leave it or get rid of it.

it was a silver salt and pepper shaker set that were shapped of pears and the note on it had their letter of their Last name and it said, the perfect pair.

bestadvicechick: If you have seen this question before that many times then you need to start looking at different categories and not rain on someone’s parade - all you had to do was pass to the next question.
