Choosing a favour box that's perfect for your wedding or event table setting can be quite daunting. Many people seriously underestimate the importance of making the right decision on favour boxes; they don't appreciate that it's the small details that make all the difference.
The first thing you need to think about is what type of event you're having; this will give you an idea of the effect you wish to create for your guests. As it will be the favour boxes that your guests will take home with them, the boxes will need to reflect something special from your big day. In other words, if you are having a country garden vintage-themed wedding then your favour boxes should mirror such sentiments in soft greens, floral damask or rose pink. Tables can be scattered with pastel toned rose petals and summery bunting can be hanging around your venue.
Alternatively, you may be having a classical monochrome theme. If this is the case, you could select black and white square boxes and mix lids with bases. For a clean, classical feel you can tie boxes with satin or organza ribbon. You can add a third dimension to your favours by adding red ribbon. Either way, your tables will look spectacular especially if you continue the crisp contemporary feel in your other room decor and floral arrangements.
Many brides and party planners use the time of year as inspiration for their favour boxes. A winter themed event naturally lends itself to wintry white, pale blue and shiny silver favour boxes especially if teamed with ice queen themed room decor. Or, mini Easter eggs can be stuffed into spring coloured favour boxes along with shredded tissue making a seasonal and delicious treat for your guests.
Another way to make your choice is to use your floral arrangements and bouquets as inspiration for your favour boxes. If you have chosen red roses as a central theme for your big day then why not go for deep romantic red favour boxes? Or if calla lilies are featuring heavily in the reception decor, favour boxes in the shape of handbags can be finished with dough calla lily flowers. This styling can be continued on invitations, place cards and menu cards too.
So, whether you are using a colour, a flower, a season or other theme as your inspiration for your favour boxes, remember that favours finish your tables off perfectly. They are a great way to tie all your ideas in together and as they are a special memento of your day, they need to be a talking point for your guests. Follow these general rules for finding your perfect favour box and you won't go far wrong! - 30299
