give your guests something that will last
donate in their honor
In lieu of wedding favors people may leave behind, make a donation to your favorite charity in your guests’ honor. Make sure to put up a sign that acknowledges this donation and tells your guests more about the great work the organization or charity does and why it’s important to you.

choose favors with purpose
If you want to give your guests something to take home as a thank-you, find favors with a purpose. Edible favors like local honey or fair-trade coffee beans, mini herb kits or bird seed balls make adorable thank-yous without the waste.
If you’d like your guests to learn more about the connections between endless growth and endangered species, supply them with our award-winning Endangered Species Condoms packages. They’re useful, funny, and a good conversation starter.
help guests go green
Send guests away with a favor that will encourage them to make wildlife-friendly choices long after your wedding is over. Items like reusable water bottles, bamboo utensil or straw packs, or even custom cookbooks featuring your favorite plant-based recipes are not only useful but also great reminders of your Earth-friendly celebration. Some couples up the ante and ask guests ahead of time for their favorite plant-based recipes to compile into a book favor.
Americans buy approximately 50 billion plastic, single-use water bottles every year. Opting for a reusable bottle saves an average of 156 plastic bottles annually.
PROVIDE a photo booth
What would a wedding be without photos to remember your beautiful day? For a fun, low-impact wedding favor, look into renting a photo booth for a few hours so guests can have a personal takeaway. Most photo booths can instantly email or text photos, making the images easy to get and post on social media without wasteful printing. And instead of buying new props, ask your vendor if they have reusable ones available — or make time to thrift fun props of your own.
