New York Wedding Favors

Wedding favors are the perfect way to give your guests a beautiful memento of your special day!

Wedding favors have come a long way since the days of pastel, crinoline wrapped Jordan almonds! Here are some fun ideas for wedding favors that will be the perfect accompaniment to your New York wedding.

New York State City Wedding Favors

It should come as no surprise that you can find nearly any image in the world sculpted in chocolate. Why not treat your guests to a chocolate sculpted replica of The Statue of Liberty? If you are interested in crafting your own chocolates, you can always give your guests a lollipop you made with a mold of The Empire State Building. Of course, no guest could possibly complain when receiving goodies from one of NYC's famed chocolatiers, like the West Village's Li-Lac Chocolates or the Upper East Side's Martine's Chocolates.

When it comes to New York City-themed favors, there are plenty to choose from on the market. From New York Yankees Pez Dispensers to New York City yellow taxi cabs to Broadway Themed Mint Tins, there is no shortage of fun and whimsical iconic New York images to leave your guests with a memento of your New York City wedding.

New York State and Upstate New York Wedding Favors

If you are taking advantage of New York's gorgeous autumn weather for your wedding celebration, there are a variety of fall-themed edible treats that could make great wedding favors for your guests. Consider gift bags of gummy fall-colored pumpkins, an autumn festival of mellocreme candies or foil-wrapped ears of chocolate corn on the cob.

For a truly special symbol of your New York wedding, why not seek out wedding favors from a local vendor or shop that is unique to your wedding location? Homemade jars of jam or apple butter from a nearby country store or bottles of New York wine from one of the area's famed vineyards all make for truly memorable gifts for guests to bring home from your New York wedding.

Wedding Favors That People Want to Take Home

Edible favors are often the most successful. DIY couples may treat their guests to candy, cookies or even jams that they have made themselves. Consider including a card that lists the recipe of your creation for guests to try at home.

Making a donation to charity in lieu of a favor? A card at each guest's place setting is a great way to let the guests know, and to commemorate anyone that the donation may be honoring.

How about a favor that a guest can really use? A gift certificate for tomorrow morning's coffee from a local coffee shop will get their day started off right - and give everyone a chance to say goodbye to friends they may have missed the night before.

There is no rule that says you must provide your guests with a wedding favor. If you are having a hard time coming up with the perfect favor, or feel pressured to do so just because you think you have to, remember one thing: It's YOUR wedding. Don't want to give out favors? Skip 'em! Trust us, nobody will complain.
