We know wedding budgets are stretched and every dollor counts. We put together this basic guide on how to choose your perfect wedding favors so you can benefit from the best wedding favors knowing that they will not only add elegance to your wedding, but will prove you an incredible value. Simply follow these steps to make sure you have the perfect favors for your wedding:

1. Set a budget for your favors – With literally thousands of unique wedding favors available, setting a budget will help make a better selection. Consider the use for your favors and what you want to do with them after the wedding: will they be used for mood setting to be stored after your wedding, or will you be giving them to your guests. If you are going to give them to your wedding guests, consider how much you want to spend for each guest.
2. Select your favors according to your theme - Get favors that coordinate with your theme as they will serve two purposes - decorations as well as momentos. Your unique favors can be set at each place setting adding to your wedding atmosphere. You'll have no problem finding hundreds of theme-based favors such as beach wedding favors, classic favors, elegant favors, garden wedding favors and crystal wedding favors to name just a few.
3. Think about who will be receiving the favors - Are they close friends and family, or are you inviting friends from work, parents friends, and so on. Are they fun loving or serious, formal or informal? Although, favors are, ultimately, gifts for your guests, try to find something you think that most of your guests will enjoy while reflecting the theme of your wedding; after all, it's your wedding you want them to remember, not the favors.
4. Will you personalize your favors? Personalize your favors for your bridal party, the flower girl, the ring bearer as well as your bridesmaids, but for your wedding guests consider whether personalization will make the favors more attractive to your guest, or will having your names on it make them less likely to use it? Frankly, it may be best to get favors without personalization for your guests. Ask yourself, will my parent's friends really use a personalized picture frame place holder with your names on it?
5. Do you want disposable wedding favors, or ones that your guests can have. In general, disposable favors that are given to guests like edable wedding favors will be only kept for a very short time while picture frames, keychains, tealight holders will be used over and over.

Ultimately, though, your perfect wedding favors are the favors that reflect you and your event. Choosing favors that represent you, your spouse to be, and your wedding day, will ensure to leave your guests with special memories of your wedding day.
