Seven Fall Wedding Favors
Fall is my favorite time of the year. There’s something so enticing about the crisp air, the changing leaves, and the yearly return of pumpkin spice lattes. So it comes to no surprise that Autumn weddings are so popular. If you’re planning a wedding for the Fall season, here are a few favor ideas that your guests will love.
Fall is apple season so it makes sense to give fresh apples for your wedding favors – especially when they are dipped in caramel! Visit your local orchard and gather apples with your family and friends. Then prepare your caramel apples a few days before the wedding for a delicious favor that everyone will love.
Not anywhere near an apple orchard? These apple cider mixes are just as easy and inexpensive! The recipe calls for ingredients that you probably already have on hand: sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and ground cloves.
If you’re looking for a unique wedding favor, this is it! Fried almonds give a satisfying crunch and are even more delicious when flavored with thyme, salt, and pepper. You can also incorporate a bit of thyme in the packaging by tucking a small branch in the enclosure.
Mulling spice is the perfect addition to wine especially in the Fall season. Make it your own by assembling it with patterned fabrics and personalized tags that match your wedding color scheme!
What goes better with the crisp autumn air than a cup of warm tea? You can either purchase tea leaves in bulk or make your own. If you choose the latter, we recommend reading Jeanne’s comprehensive guide on making loose-leaf tea.
Have a killer granola recipe (or at least a favorite brand)? Then give packaged granola for your wedding day! Paired with a kraft bag and a monogram label, these favors are excellent options for a rustic or nature-inspired wedding.
One of my favorite memories of Fall is eating homemade pies for dessert at the dinner table. If you’re also a fan of pies, why not give miniature versions for your big day?
