Green Wedding Favors and Ideas

"Green Favors" – Favor Your Guests by Giving Back to the Earth
Believe it or not, every decision you make in planning your wedding also involves our planet. Along with the energies expended by the planes, trains, and automobiles required to bring your loved ones together, you must also consider the water and electricity used during your celebration and that which is needed to clean up after the festivities are over.

Rather than giving your guests a wedding favor that collects dust on a shelf, consider providing them with a gift that gives back to the earth instead. Though a famous frog once said, “It’s not easy bein’ green,” we at Beau-coup would beg to differ—especially when it comes to doling out environmentally friendly wedding favors. Some wedding trends may change with the times, but saving the Earth will never go out of style. Tootsie Pop.

Our suggestions for eco-friendly wedding favors are certain to provide your guests with some helpful ideas for saving the environment:

Eat it up. Edible favors are one of the best ways to fill your guests up without leaving waste behind. Cookies, mini-pies, or tarts are always appreciated. Or, you might look for something that is local to the area like Vermont maple syrup, Kansas City barbeque sauce, or Georgia pecans. If nothing comes to mind, take a trip to your locatl farmer s market, and pick up something fresh home-harvested honey, a collection of locally grown fruit, or organic herbal tea. Beau-coup offers whole leaf organic tea sachet favors that can be personalized with our mini oval custom labels. Not sure if your guests drink tea? Choose chocolate instead (organically grown and produced in accordance with fair trade practices, of course). Endangered Species offers organic milk and dark chocolate bars (www.chocolatebar.com). Each wrapper features a different animal at-risk, and a portion of the proceeds helps save the species. These gifts are sure to leave a good taste in your guests mouths at the end of the night.

Make a toast. Send your guests home with a half bottle of locally produced organic wine, and they will have good reason to toast you in the months after your wedding. Organic wines are free of pesticides, herbicides, chemical fertilizers, and other synthetic chemicals. In non-organic wine production, chemical residue from insecticides that are sprayed in the vineyards may be absorbed by the soil, which is in turn absorbed by the plants’ roots. Buying organic ensures that your guests have a bottle of wine which is chemical-free—and it guarantees a cleaner and safer environment for us all. Try to ensure that the bottle is made from recycled glass whenever possible, too. If you can buy unlabeled wine, dress up your bottles with personalized wine labels and put your special brand on your special day.

Plant a tree. Who knew that a tree could fit in a box? For a mere $3, the National Arbor Day Foundation offers a variety of baby trees in recyclable plastic tubes. You can even personalize the label to commemorate your wedding day. Guests can plant the tree outside, grow it indoors for months, or even store it in a refrigerator. For tropical weddings, give your guests mini palm trees to take home. They’ll evoke the balmy, sandy beaches in no time. And finally, Tree in a Box provides just that—a kit with everything your guests need to grow a tree from a seed. Let your guests plant their memories right in their own backyards— and your wedding really will be something they enjoy for the rest of their lives.

Scatter seeds of love. A wise person once said, “Happiness held is the seed; happiness shared is the flower.” If that’s true, then why not send your guests home with seeds of happiness? Beau-coup offers personalized plantable seed cards and Baby Sprinkles plantable seed favors that are certain to remind guests of your love with each blooming flower. The seed cards can even be custom printed with your names, a personal message, and the date of your event. Or, you might consider giving your guests a mini palm plant or a lucky bamboo plant. They’ll bring your guests luck that’ll last long after your wedding!

Keep it clean. Natural soaps, lotions, and handcrafted lip balms can make amazing gifts. The lack of chemicals and the handcrafting process used to make these items minimizes the likelihood that they will cause any skin irritation or dryness for your guests. And in addition to smelling nice, the essential oils often found in these products are thought to have their own healing powers. Lavender bath salts can help your guests relax, while a bar of peppermint soap will help wake them up the next morning. So if your wedding goes late, they’ll have just what they need to recover from the festive evening!

Pass the flame. Soy wax candles burn up to 50 percent longer than petroleum-based paraffin candles—and they produce less soot. That means the burning of soy candles does not increase the carbon dioxide level in the atmosphere. Soy is a renewable resource, which gives it an obvious advantage over petroleum-based paraffin. In addition, soy candles burn at a lower temperature, which allows the scent of essential oils in the candle to disperse faster. Soy wax candles are also cheaper than beeswax (another natural wax alternative). Though they might be more expensive than paraffin candles, this cost is outweighed by a longer burning life. But if, after hearing this, we still haven’t convinced you to use soy wax candles, it’s none of our beeswax.

Donate to a good cause. Your guests’ presence at your wedding can do more than support the two of you—it can also support a worthy charity. The I Do Foundation’s Favors for Charity program enables you to make tax-deductible donations to the charity of your choice. You can give a set amount or donate a couple of dollars per guest. It’s a great way to honor a loved one or remember that special someone who cannot be there on your big day. Add a note to the program or inside the escort card that reads “A donation has been made in your name to (the name of the charity).” If you wish to explain why you chose a certain charity, you may want to create personalized donation cards (but of course this will use more paper, so make sure it’s recyclable).

Wrap it up nicely. Be sure to use handmade, fair trade gift-wraps and recycled containers for packaging your favors whenever possible. Beau-coup offers modest mini gable boxes constructed from a single piece of sturdy, recycled, eco-friendly cardboard. We also have sheer favor pouches made of sinamay, a natural fiber from the Philippines with a great classic look. But if those aren’t your bag, check out our mini floral favor bags, made from textured mulberry paper that contains hand-pressed natural flower petals. Our green wrappings are sure to tie your favors together perfectly!

Shrink your carbon footprint. The travel involved to bring your loved ones together is often the biggest contributor to your wedding’s carbon footprint. Use the wedding calculator at carbonfund.org to estimate your carbon footprint—then make a donation to the cause and offset the impact of your wedding on our planet.

You may find that eco-friendly favors cost a bit more than the alternatives, but you only have one wedding. Favor your guests—and the planet at the same time. Beau-coup is happy to preserve wedding traditions by providing modern green suggestions for you. In doing so, we preserve the Earth for the generations of children that are certain to result from so many happy unions.

Top 10 Gifts for Bridesmaids

 Top 10 Gifts for Bridesmaids

When you as a bridesmaid for your friends, you should have a nice gift.

You've made the decision to ask some of your closest female friends or relatives to support you as bridesmaids through the wedding process. Now comes the hard part of picking out the right bridesmaids gifts for your bridesmaids. You want each of your bridesmaids to feel special for being a part of your big event but you don't want to break the bank. Here are several ideas for giving that perfect bridesmaid gift to those great women you're lucky to have in your life.

1. I have been a bridesmaid several times over and probably the most common gift I have received has been jewelry. The great thing about jewelry is your bridesmaids can wear it on the wedding day to add that additional touch. I would recommend choosing something that works well with the bridesmaid dresses but also something that they can wear again. An engraved charm bracelet with her initials on it is a great idea and adds an elegant accent to her ensemble. For a little more color, choose a swarovski crystal bracelet which also includes an engraved charm to add that personal touch. A simple necklace or earrings can be a nice gift as well.

2. Another idea to add to jewelry is a personalized jewelry case. You can wrap it up nicely with the jewelry inside. Instead of a gift box, you can also give an embroidered jewelry roll. These are great for your friends that are always on the go but need something to keep their jewelry organized.

3. Traveling has become more difficult with all the new regulations regarding how you pack your bags that it is nice to have some help with the organization. Give your bridesmaids a personalized travel case to carry all there beauty necessities wherever they go. Or for something a little more compact, a personalized toiletry bag is a great alternative carrying case for all your small things. A trendy luggage tag is the perfect finishing touch and dresses up any suitcase.

4. If your bridesmaids are like most women, they probably wear makeup. Most women have some sort of cosmetic bag to carry it all and if they are like me, they have probably had the same one for a while. Why not give them something fun and new that they will definitely use like a custom embroidered cosmetic bag in the season's hottest color? Match the bags to your wedding colors and the bridesmaid dresses for a special touch.

5. Another bridesmaid gift that I have gotten in the past is a personalized picture frame. The bride put a great picture of the two of us in it and engraved a personal thank you note on the outside of the frame. It is definitely a gift that I still show off on my shelf at home.

6. Most women these days have a membership to a gym or like to have some sort of physical activity in their daily routine. Giving them a personalized tote bag that they can use to carry all their gym clothes is a thoughtful idea. Even if they don't use it as a gym bag, it can be a great everyday bag. For those yoga enthusiasts, a personalized yoga bag is a sure winner.

7. I have always been the type of person who plans a trip to the last detail but then can't find my keys on the way out the door! So I love the engraved photo keychain I got as a bridesmaid gift one year.. Now I can keep all my keys together (and they are easier to find). It has been a very useful, and practical gift.

8. For the professional women in your bridal party, another practical gift is a personalized business card case. You can find some fun and elegant styles that are perfect for each woman. Fancy pens are also a great addition to anyone's desk. Blown glass pens are a unique gift that anyone can use.

9. I have come to appreciate a nice glass of wine, especially after a long day! Giving your bridesmaids an engraved wine box is a classy and personal gift that your wine lovers will appreciate. If you are under a tight budget, a personalized jute wine bag is a great alternative. You can include a bottle of her favorite wine in the box or bag. If your bridesmaids prefer cocktails, try personalized martini glasses or a set of engraved drinking glasses. Again, with each of these, you can include a drink mix (or bottle) of each person's favorite drink.

10. Themed weddings are a lot of fun and you can carry the same theme throughout the day and even for you bridesmaids' gifts. For instance, if you are doing a Christmas wedding, give your bridesmaids holiday ornaments. An engraved photo ornament is great because you can include a picture of you and your bridesmaid and it can be something that she can keep and use for years to come! Another example is with a beach themed wedding. You can give beach towels or a personalized beach gift bag. Either one of these items would be a great practical gift that they are sure to love.

As you plan your wedding, each decision can be consuming. Hopefully these bridesmaid gift ideas have made this decision a little easier for you!
