For most couples, wedding favours go on the tail-end of their to-do list when planning their wedding. It can be difficult to come up with a gift that your guests will appreciate. You could go the predictable route and pass out key chains and figurines but the best wedding favours are the ones that your guests can actually use. Your wedding favours are a way of saying thank you to your guests; a token that commemorates your special day and doubles as something useful. We’ve rounded up 5 wonderful favour ideas your guests will love.

1. Hangover Relief Kit
Hangover kits have to be one of the most fun and practical gifts to give your guests in your wedding day. If your crowd are planning to stay up late to party, make sure there are no sore heads after by sending them off with a hangover kit they’ll be sure to use. Place them near the exit at the end of the reception so everyone can pick up a kit on their way home. You can fill them with things like an eye mask, chocolate, mints and a small bottle of water or Gatorade. They will thank you the next morning!

2. Scented Soap

Show your appreciation by “showering” your guests with love! Soap favours make a great practical gift to give to your friends and family on your special day. Whether it’s a hand soap or a bath soap, it’s a gift you know they will definitely use. You can get crafty and make them yourself by choosing the fragrance, colour, size and shape. It’s also a perfect way to tie the scent of your wedding flowers into the gifts. Make them look good by wrapping them in beautiful and colourful packaging.

3. Cute Calico Bag
Who doesn’t love a good tote bag? They’re useful for grocery shopping, eco-friendly and they’re actually something your guests will use time and time again. You can splurge and surprise them by filling the bags with small gifts or edible favours they can enjoy. Guests will adore a well-designed and functional bag with a personal touch. Get creative with the designs, choose one that represents you and your fiancé. Personalise by printing your names and wedding date.

4. Candles
Candles make excellent wedding favours because they’re inexpensive, easy to hand-out and take home. If you have time in your hands you can make your own candle or just personalise ones you’ve ordered. You can customise and choose the scents and colours that will fit your theme or go for unexpected scents for something a bit different. Put them in whatever container you want, from mason jars to cute teacups. You can design them with your name and wedding details for a custom touch.

5. Personalised Wedding Tissue Packs

Help your guests dry their tears with personalised wedding tissue packs. Customise them with thoughtful messages and a few wedding details.
