Destination weddings let you get creative with party favors — you can choose an island theme, a travel theme, or something unique to your marriage. There are so many cute ideas out there and your guests are sure to love whatever you choose. Check out a few of these favor ideas to help you start brainstorming for your own wedding!
Mini Rum Bottles from the Local Distillery
If you’re looking for unique favors that tie your wedding to the island around you, consider giving your guests mini bottles of local rum. They’re small, festive, and guaranteed to put your guests in a fun mood after they try them.
Buying bottles from a local brewer or distillery also has a more practical benefit for your wedding: you can save space when traveling to the destination. This way you won’t need a separate suitcase just for party favors.
Coffee and Chocolates
If you’re getting married in an area known for its coffee production, consider giving away small bags as wedding favors. Instead of providing the rum, you’re providing a cure for the hangover. You can really personalize the favors if you give away monogrammed coffee mugs or espresso glasses along with the ground coffee or fresh beans.
Many tropical locations also produce chocolate, which is always appreciated by guests as they can easily transport the gift back home if they don’t eat it there.
Theme Bottle Openers or Wine Stoppers
If you’re embracing the travel theme for your wedding, consider giving away compass bottle openers or wine stoppers. Both of these items can be made with a “vintage” look to make guests feel like they found it while searching for buried treasure on the island.
To tie the gift back to your wedding, create rustic maps that draw lines from your home to your wedding destination so your guests can find their way back safely.
Tote Bags and Beach Kits
If your wedding guests have a few days to themselves during the trip, give away beach kits to make their experience perfectly relaxing. You can either create a bag of “essentials” like sunglasses and flip flops, or put together a fun experience with facial scrubs, Frisbees, and drink mixes.
Your wedding favors don’t have to be big or expensive, but they should be memorable. Make sure whatever you give away as a favor is unique to you and your fiancé, so they will always remember your great wedding ideas. Speak with your ImagineVIP wedding planner and have them design the perfect kit for your wedding.
