One of the most wanted items in a wedding are the wedding favor boxes. When planning a wedding, this item should not become victim to budget costs. These are supposed to be mementoes of the wedding and not something that may be discarded or thrown away after the ceremony. There are certain beliefs attached to these items in some cultures, where the speed that they’re thrown away determines the period of happiness and length of the marriage.
Wedding favor boxes come in many shapes and sizes. The designs usually complement the theme of the wedding, so whether or not it is a golden anniversary the boxes may be wrapped with some golden material with tulle and ribbons hanging from it or perhaps a more simpler design with only a tag containing the names of the couple and the wedding date may also be considered. Although many would think that the aesthetics are an important thing, it is actually what is found within the box that really counts the most.
More often the couple orders a miniature replica of the wedding cake as the content for the boxes which are given to the guests after the ceremony. Some planners place jelly beans or assorted candy choices. There are couples whose choices run to the more expensive and high quality chocolates as giveaways. But cakes, cookies, candies or chocolates should not be the limiting choices.
Different situations often occur after the wedding reception. Some of the guests can be tired, irritable or stressed after having their fill of the food and dancing. Some of the guests will take to a hot shower to refresh themselves after a long day but some would rather soak their aching muscles in the bath with some bath salts if available. There are a lot of choices for relaxing and aromatherapy bath salts now available that can be placed inside the favor boxes. If bath salts aren’t the selection, think about aromatherapy soaps or even candles. In many cultures, using the items inside the favor boxes is not equivalent to throwing it away and can push the happiness meter up.
Cost and simplicity usually are not the major considerations during the choices for whatever contents shall be placed inside the wedding favor boxes. When the guests walk home happy with the contents of the gift boxes, then their happiness might be translated into good vibes for the married couple. If the contents of the box can be used by the guests then it is an encouragement for more life to the couple. Wedding favors are the memories that the couple give as a reminder of the happiness gained from the ceremony and this should not just be thrown away or relegated into a corner to gather dust. Based on beliefs, the wedding favors should not be thrown away so as never to result into some negative vibes.
