Thank Your Guests With Seed Wedding Favors
There has been a big trend lately towards giving wedding favors with more eco-friendly edge.
One of the more popular ones is seed favors which can be presented in packets or tins.
Seed favors offer plenty of scope for you to personalize and create gifts which coordinate to your wedding by yourself.
Here are a few ideas for creating seed wedding favors to say thank you to your guests for joining you on such a special day.
Flower Garden: choose flower seeds in your favourite varieties or those which you are using in your wedding flowers.
Do make sure they are varieties which can grow in your climate and are easy to grow.
Present one seed variety in a stylish tin with a personalized sticker or if you have different seed varieties put them in separate sachets inside a large envelope.
Herbs and Vegetables: encourage your guests to grown their own herbs and vegetables at home by giving them seeds for popular varieties.
Herbs are great as wedding favors for all your guests as they can be grown easily in a window box or in a pot on the kitchen window sill.
Vegetables require a little more work but your gift could see your guests growing giant pumpkins and marrows in no time! Indoor Garden: choose indoor varieties so your guests can grow pot plants for their home or conservatory.
For a Christmas wedding hyacinth or poinsettia bulbs/seeds are a great choice.
Wild Meadow: give your guests seeds to grow their own wild meadow with flowers like poppies, cowslips and ladies mantle.
Meadow flowers are important for wildlife like butterflies and bees and are a nice choice for a spring or summer wedding.
If you choose to give garden seeds as your wedding favors do make sure you include a note telling your guests what the varieties are and how to plant and look after them.
Your guests are more likely to plant them if they know what they are than if you leave them guessing! A final seed style favour which is does not need to be planted are bird seed favors.
These are beginning to appear in many favour stores now and are nice for a garden or eco-friendly wedding theme.
They come in different shapes and are relatively inexpensive.
Or you could make your own at home with a big bag of garden bird seed, a cookie cutter or mould and some melted pork fat to bind the seeds.
Present them in clear plastic bags tied with ribbon.
