How to Make a Beach Themed Wedding Favor


Are you planning a beach wedding? Themed weddings let you get creative with things like invitations, flowers and favors. This beach themed wedding favor gives wedding guests a fun memento of your special day and also helps decorate your reception tables. Follow these easy instructions to make your own beach themed wedding favors.


Some necessaries:


* Small metal pails (one for each favor)

* Votive candles (one for each favor)

* Sand

* Small seashells

* Scissors

* Ribbon (1/4 to 1/2 inch wide, white or in a color that compliments your wedding décor)

* Spray paint (optional)



1. Purchase small metal pails that are large enough to insert a votive candle. There should be at least 1 inch between the candle and the sides of the pail. You can typically find these pails at craft stores.

2. Spray paint the pails to match your wedding décor, if desired. If you can find pails that match your wedding colors, you can consider yourself lucky and skip this step. You can also stencil beach themed shapes (such as shells, palm trees or beach balls) on the pails if desired.

3. Fill the bottom of each pail with 1 inch of sand. You can buy sand at a craft store or less expensive "play sand" at a home improvement store. You may also consider collecting sand from the very beach you are going to be married on to personalize your favors.

4. Put a votive candle in each pail and press them into the sand.

5. Arrange seashells around each votive, filling the space between the candle and the pail. You can buy seashells at a craft store or collect them from the beach.

6. Cut an 8- to 12-inch piece of ribbon for each favor. You can adjust the length based on the desired look. For a larger bow, cut a longer piece.

7. Tie a bow around the handle of each pail. You can tie it in the center of the handle or where the handle is attached to the pail.

Wedding favors are small gifts given as a gesture of appreciation or gratitude to guests from the bride and groom during a wedding ceremony or a wedding reception.
The tradition of distributing wedding favors is a very old one. It is believed that the first wedding favor, common amongst European aristocrats, was known as a bonbonniere. A bonbonniere is a small trinket box made of crystal, porcelain, and/or precious stones. The contents of these precious boxes were generally sugar cubes or delicate confections, which symbolize wealth and royalty. (In this era, sugar was an expensive commodity and was treasured only among the wealthy. It was believed that sugar contained medical benefits).[citation needed] As the price of sugar decreased throughout centuries, the tradition of providing gifts to guests reached the general populace and was embraced by couples of modest means.
As sugar became more affordable, bonbonnieres were replaced with almonds. For centuries, almonds were commonly distributed to wedding guests to signify well wishes on the bridegroom’s new life. In the thirteenth century, almonds coated with sugar, known as confetti, were introduced. Confetti soon transformed to sugared almonds, which later evolved into the wedding favor for modern day weddings. Traditionally, five Jordan almonds are presented in a confection box or wrapped in elegant fabric to represent fertility, longevity, wealth, health and happiness. The bitterness of the almond and the sweetness of the coated candy exemplify the bitter sweetness of a marriage.
Today, gifts to guests are commonly known as wedding favors and are shared in cultures worldwide. Wedding favors have become a part of wedding reception planning, especially in the United States and Canada. Wedding favors are diverse and usually complement the theme or season of the event. Classic favors can range from the classic sugared almonds or individual chocolates to candles and scented soaps. Modern gift trends include: CD with the favorite music of the bride and groom, shot glasses filled with colored candy or silver picture frames with a photo of the couple. Gifts may also be personalized with the couple's names, initials or wedding date.
