12 Cool Display Options for Wedding Favors

Weddings favors have become an integral part of nuptials in recent times. They are a sweet gesture of gratitude towards guests for taking the time to be a part of someone’s big day. While it is important to pick suitable favors for different age groups, the display factor of these gifts is equally important. Explore some unique and interesting ideas for favors displays that will enhance the overall decor of the function at which they are gifted.

Placed on Guest Seats
Useful and functional favors placed on guests’ seats add an aesthetic edge. Items such as pretty umbrellas and parasols are great for sunny outdoor or beach weddings, while handheld bamboo fans are an elegant choice for summer soirees. Switch them up with a warm scarf or shawl for a cooler outdoor wedding.

Dinner Place Setting Takeaway
Treat your guests to more than just a delectable dinner. Add a little token for them to take away and relish. These could be curated boxes of chocolates or mints, or flower crowns which will add a novel touch. Or you can also go the eco-friendly way with small potted plants or succulents in nifty vases.

Favour Pyramid
Perfect for weddings with a rustic or bohemian theme, a wooden pyramid display of favors such as drinks, sweets, plants or wrapped gifts is a fresh concept. Besides being practical and budget-friendly, a simple pyramid or ladder display is a versatile option as the structure can be dressed up with flowers and candles for a dreamy look, or kept bare and industrial with minimal wooden or foliage accents.

Favor Table
The simplest and most versatile form of displaying your wedding favors is to lay them out on a table. From jewellery stations to luggage or name tags, everything can be displayed in a convenient way. A favor table can be built up completely based on the theme and scale of your wedding, which you can keep simple with little to no extra cost or add in props to jazz it up.

Boho Favor Bazaar
With more and more people enjoying quirky, eclectic design themes over the more classic options, couples are getting very creative with their decor. A memorable idea is to create a rustic bazaar concept for displaying favors that could include carts, tables and crates with interesting signs, umbrellas, pots, vases, flowers, bicycles, and more. You can customize it to suit your decor palette and theme.

Quirky Signs
Get creative with fun quotes and one-liners on innovative signboards at your favor displays and setups. You could even custom create a catchy tagline specific to your relationship or add your wedding hashtag that captures the nuances of your love and vibe of the wedding.

Favor Stations
Outdoor weddings are a great chance to incorporate fun and useful favours depending on the weather and environment. Popular options include handheld fans, umbrellas, sunglasses, hats and slippers. Who says you can’t be comfortable in style? Try fun station setups such as teepees, tubs, and baskets.

Tree of Favors
Another unique and budget-friendly way to display favors in an outdoor wedding is to hang them from trees. Try gifts such as small terrariums, gift baubles and boxes, nifty floral arrangements. You can add a personal touch to dangling favors by tagging them with guests’ names that add to the fun of searching for one’s specific gifts. Not only is it a visual treat, it’s a great way to use resources at hand (namely trees in a garden and farmhouse settings) at no extra cost. Notch up the charm by adding some string lights and lanterns.

Eco-friendly Favors
Going green not only makes for some thoughtful and pretty gifts, but it’s also a great way to give back to the environment. Tables and different kinds of stand setups are great for displaying small pots, or handout seeds in the form of a hanging wall with addressed envelopes. A novel idea is to set up a DIY station for guests to make a small plant pot to take home.

Favor Carts
Carts, again, are a nifty display option to add a bohemian vibe to your decor. It also allows for versatility in terms of easy movement in case of last-minute changes and can be used to display pretty much everything from boxes of sweets to drinks and gifts.

Favor Bars
Get creative with your bar displays with fun favors arrangements, quirky signs, and intriguing lights. Play into the theme of the function for your inspiration. Supplement a fully functional bar setup and table service or skip them altogether with interesting ideas such as a champagne wall, cocktail cart, a tub of miniatures or neon shots.
