Acorns, Nuts, and Seeds

Acorns, nuts, an seeds are a cute twist to traditional Fall elements like pumpkins and leaves.  Include a roasted seed and nut buffet at your wedding along with personalized favor bags for guests to fill and take home with them.  If you are feeling especially crafty, make acorn shaped chocolates to set out at each guest place setting.  Items like these acorn shaped measuring spoons make a great addition to bridal showers to tie in the theme of your wedding.

Apples

Apples are the quintessential fall fruit.  Tie in apples throughout your fall wedding for instant charm and coziness.  For guest souvenirs, give loved ones homemade apple butter, caramel apples, or set out bags for guests to fill with apples and take home.  A hot apple cider bar is a great addition for late in the season outdoor weddings to take the chill off.

Leaves and Trees

For a "Fall in Love" wedding theme, falling leaves and tree favors are a must-have.  Fall shaped souvenirs like bottle openers, bottle stoppers, and even prepackaged maple syrup make cute favor ideas that will tie in your decor.  Personalized fall napkins add an extra special touch to your decor and double as favors for guests to take home as a memento of your special day.

Easy Ideas for Edible and Fun Fall Wedding Favors

Fall isn’t that far away and for brides who are planning fall weddings it’s time to start thinking favors. Here are a few easy, edible and fun fall wedding favor ideas.

Caramel or Candy Apples:

For this fun favor I would make both candy and caramel apples to give your guest a variety. This would be great project for getting a group of your girlfriends or bridesmaids together. Crack open a bottle of wine and spend the evening making beautiful apple treats for all of your guest. The apples can be displayed nicely using apple favor boxes that can be personalized with your names and wedding date.

Candy :

Another creative and money saving idea is making chocolate candy leaves. The molds can usually be found very easily at any craft store with directions on how to make the chocolate candies. Maple candies are also a nice fall treat. Look for a recipe on line and place a few candies in either a fall favor bag or a beautiful fall leaf favor box.

Fall Leaf Cookies :

Cookies are a fabulous fall wedding favor. To incorporate the fall theme make the cookies in the shape of maple leaves. If you are not much of a baker, use a store bought sugar cookie dough. You can either make or buy red, orange and green icing to match your cookies with your fall color wedding theme. The cookies, like the candies can be placed in a small favor bag and tied with ribbon. You could even give each one of your guest there own leaf shaped cookie cutter as a favor.

Any of the above ideas would be a creative and economical fall favor for your wedding. Edible wedding favors are becoming more and more popular. Set up a candy and cookie buffet and use all three ideas. Your guest will love it!

New 2009 Fall Favors are Here!

Brand New fall favors have just arrived for 2009 including festive gift ideas like: Personalized apple boxes for holding caramel or candy apples, plantable eco-friendly flower seed favors, oak leaf shaped magnets and favor boxes, leaf-shaped candy dishes, bottle openers, bookmarks, and more.

With all the new and exciting favors to choose from, fall weddings can only be best described with two simple words....Absolutely Gorgeous! When planning your fall wedding decor and favors, pull from the shapes and vivid colors that Mother Nature has already provided. Leaves and branches are great for capturing the feel of fall. Colors like bronze, brown, copper, gold, red, hunter and olive green are perfect for creating a warm and inviting ambience.

Fall wedding favors can also be used as functional decorations. Leaf-shaped place card holders will seat guests and add a touch of the fall season to your table decor. Fill leaf-shaped candy dishes (shown) with treats and set at each place-setting for guests to enjoy. These candy dishes will add seasonal color to your tables and give guests a keepsake to remember your special day with. For a rustic look, set out cinnamon stick votive holders to give your tables a home-made feel and to add a touch of glowing ambience. Wine cork place card holders are functional because they not only seat your guests but they add an old-world feel to your wedding decor. Other ideas include leaf-shaped scented soaps (great for OOT gift bags) or copper bottle openers placed next to home-made bottles of apple cider. Happy planning!

Cookie Cutter Wedding Favors Can Make Your Reception Fun & Unique

Give your guest a cookie and they will smile but give you guest a cookie cutter and they will remember your special day every time they make a fresh batch of cookies. Cookie Cutters can make a great wedding favor idea because they are so versatile. Cookie cutters come in all shapes and sizes so you can match them to the theme of your wedding. For instance the maple leaf cookie cutter would be a great favor for a fall wedding. Attach a cookie recipe and a personalized favor tag to your cookie cutters that has your names and wedding date, and "truly cut out for each other"printed on them. Another good idea would be to make cookies with the cookie cutters you will be passing out and put a plate of the cookies on the buffet table. If you are having a child friendly wedding reception you can include a small container of playdoh for the kids and they can cut out shapes of cookies in the playdoh or include crayons and paper and they can trace the shapes. Cookie Cutter Wedding Favors can make anyones reception more fun and unique.

Fall Wedding Colors and Ideas

Fall weddings are becoming increasingly popular in the last few years with shades of gold, deep reds, terra cotta, chocolate brown, bronze, taupe, hunter and olive green. Fall weddings are fabulous as you can expect beautiful wedding pictures with rich warm romantic colors, especially if the leaves are falling. Cornucopias and pumpkins filled with fruits, dried corn, or even elegant fall flowers and leaves to accent your tables is sure to make you the envy of those June brides along with personalized fall colored napkins and candles for an additional warm glow. Do something either useful or tasty as a thank you favor to all your friends and family for your appreciation, such as having a piece of cake boxed to go or maybe some spiced nuts and candy corn, that will be in the colors of fall, bagged and ready to take home. Maybe add a thank you tag tied to a small pumpkin that can be used for guests’ fall favors. Another tasty treat is to give out giant caramel apples ornately decorated with a personalized ribbon with your names and wedding date. A tasty remembrance of a wonderful wedding and you can’t go wrong with that.

New Fall Wedding Favors Are Here

Wow! Where did summer go? Fall is here and the leaves are starting to show their true colors of crimson and yellow. What an exhilarating time of year.

Fall weddings are in full swing and My Wedding Reception Ideas has added many new and interesting fall wedding favors to compliment fall wedding decorations for wedding and reception halls.

A few of my favorite favors are the autumn leaves glass photo coasters, autumn elegance wedding cake candle favors, and fall leaves gel candle favors. As with all of our fall favors, each item features colors and shapes of autumn with maple leaves displaying hues of red, yellow and orange and green..

The glass photo coasters are one of our most popular items. I believe they are because they are so useful. These coasters feature a leave design against a burgundy background with a clear frame in the center to insert a picture. They are packaged in gift boxes with bows and ready to place on the guest tables or in gift bags. Many couples like to use the coasters as place card holders. Instead of inserting a picture, they insert a place card to seat their guests. Later, the place cards can be replaced with a favorite photo.

Candles are always popular but don't last long after the wedding. Decorative votive holders, however, can be used over and over. Leaf shaped votive place card holders have a tea light that, when burned, illuminates a place card at the top of the votive to create an intimate ambiance.

The only problem we have experienced with the new fall wedding favors is keeping them in stock. If your wedding is within the next couple of months, I highly recommend placing your order now. Even if the favors you want are back-ordered, if your wedding date is beyond the back-ordered date, you will be in line for the next shipment to receive in time for your wedding day.
