Once your theme and location are set, you can get creative with your wedding favors!<\/p>\n\n\n

Every kitchen needs a spatula, so why not provide them with a colorful option that additionally reminds them of your wedding day?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Personalize the Souvenirs to Your Guests<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For a more personal touch, consider personalizing your souvenirs to your guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While most couples personalize their souvenirs with their names or the wedding date, customizing them with the names of your wedding party can be a fun and unexpected twist that will delight everyone.

3. Hand Out Useful Trinkets<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

4. Look for Cost-Effective Options<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Do not let the potential cost of your personalized wedding favors <\/a>deter you from them! There are many options out there to choose from right here at Lazer Designs, so if your budget is starting to stretch \u2013 don\u2019t cross your favors off! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wedding favors serve as an important reminder of memories as guests attended your wedding and act as a special thank you for their taking time to come and celebrate your big day with you. Guests will love that you provided them with a wedding souvenir regardless of what it may be!<\/p>\n\n\n

\n

Smaller gifts such as personalized wine openers<\/a> and the above-mentioned bottle openers<\/a> and kitchen utensils are all great wedding souvenirs that you can – and should! – customize in bulk for all of your guests. Each wedding souvenir is small, useful, and easy on the budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Plan Out the Quantity You Need<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A big question many wedding planners ask is how many favors do you need? One per guest? One per family?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This can be one of the most complicated parts of choosing the best wedding favors and souvenirs. As no one wants 50 leftover bottle openers or 50 personalized jars of snacks. At the same time, you don’t want too few wedding favors either!<\/p>\n\n\n

\n

Custom engraved shot glasses<\/a> are a great wedding souvenir option, as even if you do have leftovers, they are still useful for at-home use and make great gifts for those who could not attend your wedding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where To Put Your Wedding Souvenirs <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now that we have covered all the important parts of choosing the best-engraved wedding favors, it’s time for the fun part! Choosing where to showcase your wedding souvenirs! <\/p>\n\n\n

There are many options available when it comes to displaying your personalized wedding favors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ideally, you want to place the favors in an easy and very visual spot so that guests know to take one, (or two, or three), such as next to an eyecatching custom home decor wall sign.<\/a> Here are just a few other ideas of where to place your custom favors!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Option 1: Near the Guest Book<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Putting your personalized favors near the guestbook or your custom well wishes journal<\/a> will not only entice your guests to sign your book but encourage them to admire your favors and take one home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A key point here is to make sure your guests know your wedding souvenirs and don’t mistake them as display or d\u00e9cor. A simple sign stating “Take one!” will go a long way in helping your guests fully understand your intention.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Customized tumblers<\/a> or other personalized drinkware<\/a> are a great option when placing wedding favors near the guest book. Not only are they great on their own, but you can store edibles inside for a nice surprise when your guests go to open them!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Guest Tables<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Option 2: On the Guest Tables<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Placing a personalized wedding souvenir at each place setting at the guest tables will ensure that your guests not only see them but potentially use them, and take them home. This method cuts down on the need for yet another table set up in your venue so you can have more room for dancing!<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Personalized reusable straws<\/a> are an excellent wedding favor that can be used right then and there during the reception! Engrave your names and wedding date on the carrying pouch and\/or on each reusable straw and encourage your guests to not only take them home but do their part in reducing the presence of one-use plastics with this eco-friendly wedding souvenir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An alternative is, utilizing your centerpieces as your way of giving your guests their gift. Incorporating your favors into the centerpieces, not only helps the bride and groom in the long run (the fewer decorations to take home the next day), it also provides that extra step of decoration and personalization to your wedding d\u00e9cor! <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Custom laser engraved pocket token wedding souvenirs <\/a>are a great addition to your centerpieces as they can be set up around beautiful flower vases to complete your wedding theme all while delighting guests with your unique decor and wedding souvenir choices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
