"Green" weddings are very popular right now. However, even if you are not having a completely green wedding, you can choose to give eco-friendly wedding favors.
Here are some great ideas for fabulous wedding favors that are perfect for couples who are green-minded.
Seed Packets
Many companies offers packets of seeds which you can personalize. Choose your favorite flower seeds, fruit seeds or vegetable seeds. The packets can be personalized with the wedding date, bride and groom's names, or a special message. To save more money, you can print your own labels from your home computer.
Bamboo Plants
Bamboo has long been associated with love, marriage and luck in many Asian cultures. Whether you are having an Asian-themed wedding or not, bamboo wedding favors can be a terrific choice for your wedding. Lucky bamboo, which is not actually bamboo but rather a type of water lily, is often given at weddings. You can buy lucky bamboo shoots in bulk and plant them yourself, or find them already potted for your convenience.
Potted Plants
Create your own eco-friendly favors by purchasing small terracotta pots that contain blooming plants. You can decorate the pots with the name of each guest, so they can double as a placecard holder. These potted plants can be a wedding favor, placecard holder and reception decoration all in one!
Plant Bulbs
Buy plant bulbs in bulk from your local gardening store and place them in small, individual burlap bags. You can stencil a monogram or message on the front of each bag for a personalized touch! Your guests will be able to enjoy these favors for years to come as they grow the plants at home!
