Looking for low-cost wedding favors themes? You are not unique. A wedding can cost so much these days, and while you require everything to be nice and give your guests a little gift to say that you are happy they came, you will certainly want to save some money for the honeymoon too!

The good news is that you can save a lot on your wedding favours by returning to the established wedding favour idea: candy. This way you can get something fabulous without having to spend a lot of money.

Of course you would not just buy a Hershey bar and entrust it on people's plates! You will want to put a little time in to getting unique wedding favors that are personalized, so that all of your guests will want to save them for a keepsake after they ate the candy.

The best way to do this is by being creative with the container for your wedding favours. It is cheaper not to buy candy that comes pre-packed in little boxes for weddings, but just place some small boxes that you can find online and then place whatever kind of candy you desire inside. You may want to use a cupcake liner too. A lot of people pick out chocolates but this is not necessarily a good idea if the weather is hot. Sugared almonds are one established favorite. You can get them in several unique colors. Or M&Ms, or mints. How about fudge? Or just go for your own personal favorite nuts or candies!

If you do not desire to use candy, then if you are engaged in plants, how about a packet of seeds? You could pick out something that would grow pretty flowers in your wedding colours and prompt guests of you.

You may want to have the boxes pre-printed with your names and a photo of you as a couple. Or Else, you can make a wrapper for the box from paper or textile that is personalized. Depending how much time you have, you could even embroider on it with your names, the date and a small design. This would be a very low cost way to produce unforgettable favors. If you are light of time yourself perhaps you have a gifted friend or family member who would enjoy to do this for you.

Another possibility is to use glass containers for your wedding favours. You can buy standard small glasses and have them engraved. This may cost a little more for the engraving, but it would create something that the invitees would for certain keep forever. You can fill with candy, popcorn or nuts and raisins, and cover in tulle tied with a ribbon.

Candles are a popular wedding favor idea and you can even make your own. Buy beeswax and wicks at a craft store, and collect some shells - you can do this on vacation, or if you live near the beach. Or of course you could buy the shells too. Get instructions from the craft store on how to dissolve the beeswax and add the wick. Tie a ribbon around the finished candles.

This should give you many ideas for affordable wedding favours that you can apply or that will inspire you to come up with your own.
