Wedding favors are the best way for newlyweds to thank their family and friends for celebrating their love. Traditional favors (think: the nicely packaged trio of Jordan almonds that you see at every wedding) might not be the best way for you and your partner to express your love and appreciation to your party guests. For a more heartfelt approach, consider these personalized wedding favor ideas from Etsy, ranging in price, customization, and creativity. Best of all, most of these options are actually something that your guests will use (or eat!) during or after the reception.
