5 Rustic Wedding Favors to Impress Your Guests

The Barn at Belle Hills • Mar 01, 2024

Wedding favors are small gifts of appreciation for your guests as a gesture of thanks for their attendance on your special day. While not mandatory, wedding favors have become a cherished tradition. They symbolize the couple's gratitude for the love and support they receive.

Opting for themed wedding favors adds extra personalization, ensuring each keepsake is a nostalgic reminder of the special day's intricate details. We understand the importance of thoughtfully selected wedding favors, so we're bringing you inspiration for favors to complement your rustic wedding in Crittenden, Kentucky, at The Barn at Belle Hills.

Mason Jar cANDLES FOR WARM WEDDING NOSTALGIA

Candles make excellent wedding favors for several reasons:

They evoke a sense of warmth and coziness.
The soft glow of candles adds an enchanting visual element when lit at the wedding.
Guests can use the candles in their homes long after the wedding day.

You can carry your rustic wedding theme into the candles with mason jar holders and rustic scents like pine, lavender, vanilla, or cinnamon. The customization possibilities, such as personalized labels, add a unique touch to the candles, making them a meaningful token of appreciation for guests.

Wooden magnets as beautiful refrigerator reminders

Wooden magnets engraved with the couple's name or a special message are a great keepsake for guests to put on their refrigerator to invoke memories of the unique wedding they attended. The natural appeal of wood grain integrates the warmth and authenticity of rustic aesthetics into their daily lives.

seed packets to symbolize growth

In an increasingly fast-paced world, minimalism offers a way to simplify and declutter, providing a sense of calm and order amidst the chaos. For this reason, many people are turning to gifts that their recipients can use rather than keep. Seed packets are great for this! For example, you could give a packet of various herb seeds that your guests can enjoy growing and eventually flavoring food. Or a packet of perennials that will bloom every year to remind your guests of the special day they shared with you.

Jam jars for sweet Memories

Jam continues on the theme of gifts that guests can use rather than keep. Offering jam as a wedding favor symbolizes the sweetness of the couple's union. This edible gift represents the joy and love shared on the wedding day, making it a meaningful and delightful token for guests to enjoy at home. Since Kentucky is known for its berries, peaches, and apples, choosing local artisan jams is right outside your doorstep!

Antique-style luggage tags to carry the celebration home

Due to their practicality and symbolic significance, luggage tags make an exceptional wedding favor. These tags help guests quickly identify their luggage during travels, adding a touch of convenience to their journeys. If some of your guests come from out of town, personalized luggage tags allow guests to carry a piece of the celebration home.
