More and more couples are opting for destination weddings. With a break from the traditional weddings, wedding ceremonies are being conducted not just inside one’s church but in beaches, gardens, on a cruise ship and sometimes in a completely different country.

If the couple is the type who did enjoy traveling together when they were engaged, or a local who just wants a different wedding venue, destination weddings will truly take flight in the years to come. If you have a travel or a destination themed wedding, here are some wedding favors that can complement this theme as well.

Seashells – Even if you are not having a beach party, you can use this as a favor because the item symbolizes travel or being out from the local surrounding. Of course if you are having a beach party, then this would be a great item to match that theme.

Luggage tag – An item regularly used when traveling, luggage tags are practical wedding favors and what’s best is that they are readily available not just in specialty wedding favors stores but in department stores and travel shops. Wherever your wedding is held, luggage tags will not only be useful for your guests, but go along great with the destination wedding motif.

Miniature Folding Beach Chairs – A fun decorative item, you can give these away especially if you’re having a beach wedding. These can sometimes hold pictures and place cards as well.

Wooden fans – Practical and readily available, wooden fans are appropriate to give away because in most destination weddings, they are being used by guests. Whether a beach party, a garden wedding, or in tropical country, fans are used for the comfort of the guests. If you have and Asian themed wedding, these are considered classic favors as well.

Other items such as mint tins, bottle openers, soaps, photo frames and candles can be used as long as you personalize them not just by placing your wedding details but by incorporating images of your destination (temple, seashells, city skyline, etc) in the handles, body of the item or in an area that can be seen prominently.

Every couple wants to make their wedding as special or as unique as it can possibly be. Some travel to other places just to get that special feel, and to complete that special wedding experience, make sure that your wedding favors speak of uniqueness as well.

As it is not easy to prepare for a wedding, preparing a wedding in a different or unconventional wedding venue will be far more challenging. All materials have to be brought in, and of course, do not forget and leave your wedding favors at your home. Better yet, if you order them online, perhaps you can have them shipped directly to the destination of your wedding.

Wedding favors are the best way to send off your guests. For the time, effort, and money that they spent to congratulate your union, make everything worthwhile by preparing wedding favors that are truly special.
