Candle wedding favors are inexpensive, useful, and romantic – three key elements to consider when choosing favors for your wedding. There are many types of candles to choose from – from inexpensive taper candles tied with a ribbon to themed candles in beautiful holders. Whatever your budget, candles make an ideal wedding favor.

For those on a budget (or as secondary inexpensive wedding favors if you are especially generous), purchase long taper candles in your wedding colors from your local discount store. Then print a page of tags with your choice of words. “Thank you for coming to our wedding!” with the date and couple’s name is a good choice for the tags, but you can be more creative if you prefer. Cut out the tags with a fancy edged scissors, punch a hole in the end, and use a ribbon to tie them on to each taper. You can also tie tiny bells or fabric flowers for an elegant yet inexpensive touch. For a larger budget, consider a themed candle like those shown on eyecandygift.com. You can give candles shaped like wedding cakes, cups of coffee, roses, or gift boxes. You can also give tea light holders shaped like sailboats, crowns, or sand castles. Whatever you choose, candle wedding favors are sure to be used and enjoyed by your guests!
