An Outdoor Wedding - “To incorporate the colors of the day into the favors, and to share one of our favorite treats with our guests, we chose caramel-dipped, chocolate-covered apples as favors for our guests,” the bride explains. Green Granny Smith apples were dipped in caramel and then drizzled with milk and white chocolate. The monogrammed tags on the apples also told guests where to sit, letting the favors do double duty as escort cards.

A Winter Wedding - Allison really wanted to incorporate her favorite holiday into the event. Her bridesmaids helped her to decorate a large Christmas tree with ornaments in silver, brown, and blue, matching the wedding colors. As they left, guests could grab an ornament and place it in a tissue-filled takeout box. Guests also received personalized sugar cookies.

A Traditional Wedding - Once guests took their seats, they found favors wrapped the old-fashioned way -- in brown paper tied with tan string. Inside was a letter opener, a tool that will surely serve the friends and family of these snail mail-lovers well. “The [letter opener] favors were actually the first thing we bought for the wedding, but we didn’t want anything you could just buy at an office supply store,” Amy says. “So Bryan did some online research and found a German company, Lerche, whose designs we liked.”

A Casual Wedding - We gave out poker chips with a “CC” on the front that was the same style as what was on our invitations. On the back it said 'We're lucky to have you here,'" Chris says.
