In what is believed to be a very auspicious
date for a wedding, finding the right favors
for a wedding set on the date for July 7th,
2007, takes a combination of both creativity
and originality. Using both traditional
and contemporary packaging for favors is
the key to presenting a memorable favor
with a twist of luck on this very special
date. Our ideas below feature all-time candy
favorites that are selectively paired with
a lovely favor container.
Place seven Jordan almonds in
a pretty
sachet bag. By tradition,
using an odd number of sugared almonds
symbolizes that marriage is not divisible
(i.e., it cannot be equally divisible).
You can also use these beautiful sachets
as a place card holder during a bridesmaid's
luncheon whereby each bag can hold 7 pretty
pink candies.
Give a 7-gem rhinestone
place card holder to each guest. They
can serve as delightful table favors for
a jeweled-inspired wedding theme and add
a decorative touch to your reception tables.
When using them for favors during the
reception, you can put a lovely card with
a special saying that highlights the date
of your wedding.
Present boxes of home baked treats
in 7 different colored wraps.
Nothing is more special than
specially baked goodies such as cupcakes,
scones, or muffins made right at home.
You can also use your favorite cookie
recipe - one that can be handed down from
a special relative such as a grandmother
or aunt. Be sure to put a special card
together with the boxes that explains
the significance of your favor and the
special meaning it represents.
Give seven chocolate coins in
candy
trays for a wedding that celebrates
both luck and good fortune. Planning
a fun July 7th beach wedding? Give your
guests a beautiful candy tray filled with
brightly colored chocolate coins. You
can substitute mini sand dollar cookies
or salt water taffy - package them in
aqua or gold organza wraps for a truly
festive presentation that is both eye-catching
and original. Attach a pretty tag that
says "Celebrate our wedding with
luck by the sea."
Treat your guests to a lovely
picture
frame displaying a card written in
special calligraphy - be sure to include
a meaningful note. As an extra
special touch, you can present guests
with sugared almonds together with these
organza
bags. If you prefer an edible favor,
you can also place 7 delicious chocolate
truffles inside them. Complete this idea
by placing a favor tag that says "With
Special Thanks on our Special 07-07-07
Wedding."
Present 7 fortune cookies in
a sinamay
favor box. For a wedding
with an Asian flair, you can give guests
fortune cookies that are personalized
with a special message. As an alternative,
you can also give almond tea cookies,
which are just as popular and tasteful
as fortune cookies. When giving them out
during a tea reception, you can also include
a tea bag together with the cookies. To
complete your favor, just attach a pretty
satin ribbon that matches your wedding
color.
Place seven colorful jellybeans
or pillow mints in silver
baskets. Attach a pretty
ribbon to each of these baskets and set
one at each guest's place setting. To
save on place card holders, you can use
these favor baskets as nifty place card
holders by resting a place card at the
handle of each basket.
