Wedding favors are a fantastic way to show your appreciation to those special to your life for attending your big day. But with many aspects of wedding planning, selecting what favors to give your attendees can be a difficult task. A genius and effective wedding favor you can give out at the end of the night is snacks that people can enjoy as they head back home or to an after-party.
What to Put on the Wedding Snack Table
- Ice Cream/Popsicles – Having your wedding in the summer? Then sending your guests off with a refreshing cool treat can make them even more thankful that they were invited.
- Hot Cocoa – Winter weddings can be fun, but going from a warm reception venue to a frigid night can shock some people. Keep them warm as they wait for a ride home with a delicious hot chocolate drink.
- Local Delicacies – No matter where your wedding is, there is likely some sort of local dish that the area is known for. Chicago weddings could have mini Chicago-style hot dogs, a slice of deep dish, or maybe an Italian beef sandwich for guests to enjoy once they are back at their hotel.
- Homemade Sauces – Giving your friends and family a sauce that they can use for months after is a delicious way for them to remember your special night. This could be a hot sauce, tasty salad dressing, or just one of your favorites that your friends know you enjoy.
- Cocktail Recipes – A special cocktail at the reception bar is always a great idea, and teaching others how to make it can be a subtle way to inform friends what you’d like to drink the next time you visit them. Fill a mini-bottle with the concoction and attach a recipe card to the neck to spread your favorite spirits.
If you want your guests to work up an appetite during the cocktail hour and reception, then hire the musical talents at Yazz Events. Our musicians and DJs can have your party-goers dancing all night long so that the wedding favors are a needed refreshment at the end of the night.
