Popular Wedding Favor Finishes
The Wrapping
-
Tulle - Commonly used, tulle adds elegance to any favor. It comes in different colors and can be bought on a roll or in circles. Although circles cost more, consider going with those because it gathers into a fuller look than its roll counterpart.
-
Cellophane - Inexpensive, cellophane is a shiny material manufactured in a variety of patterns and colors. With it's brightly colored options and designs, cellophane screams fun, especially when paired up with matching curling ribbon.
-
Fabric - From a lacey look to gingham check, this option empowers you to be super creative, without breaking the old pocketbook. On the downside, because you’ll need to cut your own squares, it also requires more work.
Tying Loose Ends
-
Personalized Ribbon - The priciest of options, the ribbon will proclaim the name of you and your new hubby as well as your wedding date. It’s a nice touch, but because it is usually quite thin, consider tying it along with another ribbon in a different color.
-
Ribbon - Experiment with different widths, textures and colors of ribbons. Two thin ribbons in different colors creates a beautiful display, as does large bows from thick, shimmery ribbons.
Creative Touches
-
Faux flowers, shells and heart candy. Miniature versions of these items can be hot-glued to the center of the bow. It is an easy and inexpensive way to connect simple favors to a larger theme, or simply to add that final touch.
-
Heart Confetti - Mix candy with shiny heart confetti before tying together.
