Wedding Favor Charms

Keepsakes and favors have become more and more popular in wedding receptions. In fact, many people only know of wedding favor charms as keepsakes, without actually knowing what they signify.

Basically, wedding favor charms are used to add some pizzazz to your wedding favors. These wedding charms include metallic labels, tiny trinkets and adornments. In fact, they resemble the decorations you add to a charm bracelet; the only difference lies in the fact that they go on wedding favors and not on the bracelets. Wedding favor charms are great for personalizing and customizing your wedding favors.

Now comes the part of choosing the right charms and favors for your wedding. There are a great variety of items for you to choose from. The most popular choices are those saying ‘thank you’ or ‘love’. Wedding favor charms also come in various shapes and sizes. The most common shape is the heart, along with angels, presents, bells and a bride and a groom.

You could also consider romantic charms as unique favor ideas like twin hearts, a dove, champagne bottles, a dancing couple, champagne glasses, rings or cupid. You can also get lots of ideas for your charms from jewelry stores and wedding supply companies. You can personalize them by engraving them too.

The wedding couple is usually undecided on whether to give all the guests in the wedding the same wedding favor charms or if they should give each person a different wedding favor charm. The usually choice is to give a certain type of item to the male guests of the wedding, and a different type for the women guests of the wedding. Perhaps a ballerina wedding charm for the women, and a baseball or football wedding charm for the men.

Wine glass charms are great as an idea for your reception. They add sophistication to your wedding and are available in different styles. These charms are added to a ring, and then worn around the stem of the wine glass. You could also make your own wine glass charm as your wedding favor charm by stringing some charms in a piece of wire, and looping it an end with a knot.

No matter what you choose as your wedding favor charm, they add some decoration to your favors and are a great means of customizing your gifts. Your guests are sure to love these little wedding favor charms as they offer the best finishing touches to your wedding favor.
