Modern weddings can cost a fortune as there seems to be more things to cater for nowadays and the choice of wedding favors just keeps growing so this is an area that needs to be chosen carefully. Obviously if you are only having a small wedding then you may feel inclined to spend a little more on the wedding favors. Large weddings and small budgets can make things more complicated but it is still possible to provide cheap wedding favors that do not actually look inexpensive.

An easy and inexpensive idea for cheap wedding favors is candles as they can be purchased in bulk easily. You might even consider purchasing personalized ribbons to tie pretty bows around the candles. There are many companies that can arrange for this to be done with the bride and grooms name and other wedding details on a reel to reduce the cost. A simple taper candle tied with your personalized ribbon can be placed at each place setting to create a really inexpensive wedding favor.

Candy is another cheap wedding favor idea and you may find a number of different ways to give out candy as an inexpensive wedding favor. Small tins or cartons can also be bought wholesale in addition to the candy so each guest can have his or her own small portion. You could also use candy bars with personalized packaging which could be supplied at a reasonable cost. {You can easily expand upon this idea, without costing too much more by adding special wrappers especially for the wedding.} You only need to have details of the wedding and bride and grooms name but it really looks nice if there is a picture as well. The design does not have to be complicated and by having the same wrapper, the cost will be brought down further ensuring the bride and groom provide a cheap but effective wedding favor.

One little used wedding favor option is to supply the guests with plant or vegetable seeds neatly presented with a ribbon tied around them. Another way to give flower or vegetable seeds as a wedding favor is to put the seeds in a small pot. The pot only needs to be large enough to hold the packets of seeds as it is merely a symbolic gift so it can be rather small. This method will also reduce the amount you have to spend on the pots themselves while providing an effective wedding favor display.

If you are a practical person then you may find this last idea to your liking as it involves giving pens as a cheap wedding favor even if the happy couples wedding details are on each pen. Pens do not cost a great deal and can also be paired with personalized stationery for a really practical gift. This is a cheap wedding favor that keeps on giving because the stationery can be used to stay in touch with the married couple. You might want to even consider including a self addressed stamped envelop with the favor so your guest will be more likely to follow your suggestion and send you at least a short note after the wedding.
