The
long standing tradition of giving favours started centuries
ago in Italy. Traditionally they contain five Italian sugar
almonds to symbolise health, wealth, happiness, long life
and fertility, five being a number which can not be divided.
Italian fabrics, flowers, hearts, boxes, teddies, top hats,
crackers and tuxedo boxes are all used to create an array
of favours to complement the colours and style of the wedding.
Favours
will delight your guests use them to add a special touch to
your place setting as a table centrepiece or given to your guests
by the bridesmaids or page boys a great idea to give the guests
the opportunity to speak to the bridesmaids and page boys. They
are the perfect way to decorate the special occasion and thank
guests for sharing the joy of your wedding with a lovely keepsake
of the day. The oldest favour I've heard about is well over
fifty years and still on the dressing table.
Factors
to consider when choosing your favours are the style and colours
of the favours which need to reflect the style of the wedding
and colours used in the brides and bridesmaids dresses, flowers
and place settings. A swatch of fabric or piece of ribbon is
very helpful to obtain a good colour match.Another
consideration is your budget a wide price range from simple
classic designs to more elaborate designs is important. Ensure
there is no minimum order a small wedding requires a small number
of favours.
The
possibilities for favours are endless so any ideas may be incorporated
into favours making them unique for your wedding.
Packaging
is another important consideration the correct packaging customised
for your order ensures protection for your favours.
The
time scale for organising your favours is important. Decide
on colours and style then wait for the replies from your guests,
decide if you wish to order favours for ladies only or include
the gentlemen and consider the children. A teddy favour for
example for a child can be entertaining when they are listening
to the speeches! If Great Aunt Louise can Suddenly come from
Australia after all then an individual favour can be sent after
the main order.
