If you’re going down the wedding favours route, practical, edible or personalised is always a good bet – guests will happily bring home practical goodies like store cupboard staples, will eagerly munch on something tasty and will love anything that’s just for them.
Another great idea that will be a big hit is an experience. Lots of couples are choosing to hire a service and treat their guests for instance have a coffee van stop by after the ceremony and perk them up with a latte for their trip to the reception, or an ice cream to munch on as they wander around the drinks reception. Or put your funds towards something guests can interact with such as a caricature artist or photo booth. We’ve rounded more brilliant ideas guests will love below…
