None of us would wish to place cheap wedding favours on our guests place settings; but we know when your budget for the big day is being spent in so many directions, wedding favours can be the last thing on your list when it comes to affordability – and depending on the number of guests you’re inviting, the cost can creep up to be a rather large addition. It may be that you choose not to have wedding favours at all; but if you are taking the more traditional approach, fear not – we’ve found a few ideas that won’t break the bank and will allow you have a nice choice of inexpensive wedding favours for your place settings.
Wildflower Seeds
These little packets are a lovely gift for those who are looking for a more natural favour to give. Each packet contains a mix of native wildflower seeds including cornflower and poppy, to look pretty and attract the butterflies and bees (who love their nectar), making unique and special gifts for £1.20 each.

Wedding Day Yankee Candle

They may even choose to light up your evening reception with a delicate, sweet smelling candlelit atmosphere – available from 80p each.

Sparklers
What wedding is complete without a whole lot of sparkle? These indoor sparklers will create the perfect amount of bedazzle to your big day. You can have a lovely note on each table asking your guests to light them at the start of your first dance – or for your send off!
