עברית Giveaway Gifts for Wedding Guests – Ideas for a Happy Event
They have drunk your wine, they have enjoyed themselves, they were touched by your happiness and surrendered themselves to it on the dance floor and in the aisles. After all of that, when the evening draws to a close, your guests will appreciate a giveaway memento that would commemorate the exciting event – something they may look at and touch the happiness that they had experienced. For your part, you would like to say ‘thank you’ to all of the guests who shared your special event with you. Do it with small giveaway gifts.
We have collected a few ideas that you may want to consider.
The Classic Giveaway Gift: Dragée Confectionery
Having gone through a number of rough years, the traditional, pastel-colored confectionery seems to be making a comeback to the function halls and gardens. That may be attributed to the ‘retro’ wave that has taken the wedding world by storm, or to a wedding design trend that uses exactly the same joyful colors used in the making of dragée confectionery. In the current, upgraded incarnation of dragée confectionery, the candy is not the main element but rather the colorful packaging that makes it a lovely, elegant gift that is a pleasure to take home.
Dragée boxes made from high-quality paper, in special colors and cool designs, convert this confectionery into an exciting giveaway gift, and may be saved and used to keep jewelry or small toys.
Tip: include a personal message in your giveaway dragée boxes.
The Tasty Giveaway Gift: the Homemade Touch
In an era of cookery shows and stylish food that strictly observes the quality of the ingredients and raw materials, giveaway gifts based on personally-prepared foods are simply marvelous. Numerous suppliers offer such tasty gifts, and many of them also offer a presentation that turns this gift into a celebration to the eye – not just to the palate. You can find magical homemade jams, special spices (that promise to spice up your life), prestigious chocolates, Halva with surprising additional ingredients, coffee beans and marzipan, which never fails to surprise and delight when it’s fresh and personally made. You can add greeting cards that say ‘thank you’ to your guests to all of these gifts.
Tip: note the Kashrut state of the giveaway products and have the giveaway sorted out with the function hall or caterer.
The Blossoming Giveaway Gift: Miniature Potted Plants
A small potted plant is always touching. It never fails to establish a sentimental bond, to find its way to the warmest corner of the house, and to spread happiness over a long period of time.
Tip: make sure you purchase fresh potted plants to avoid withered plants.
The Visual Giveaway Gift: Photographs from the Wedding
Photographs from the wedding are the most powerful memento, and are particularly meaningful to the inner circle of family and friends. Magnets with wedding photographs have been adorning refrigerators throughout Israel for a number of years now. If you are interested in giving your guests photographs in a packaging that is a bit more prestigious, however, you can combine the photographs with special wedding invitations that convert into picture frames. Before the wedding, the guests receive a wedding invitation and after the wedding – they receive a Thank-You letter with a photograph, which they can fit into the original invitation, which now converts into a frame. Additionally, photographs may be printed on products that are more sophisticated than magnets: coasters or glasses. For the technologically advanced, Instagram photographs the guests themselves had taken may be printed and handed out, or you can use the Facebook distribution service – directly to the accounts of your guests.
Tip: Make sure you use photographs that convey happiness and a cheerful ambience.
KeepON invitations inform your guests of the wedding and subsequently remind them of how much they enjoyed the event when they become an elegant picture frame. Shown is an invitation from our DUO-500 series.
The Clever Giveaway Gift: Do It Yourselves
IKEA discovered the concept first, and made millions: when you do something yourself, you enjoy it more. Some wedding giveaway gifts are based on this concept. A package of high-quality ingredients along with one of your favorite recipes will enable your guests to continue the wedding celebration in their homes. We have even come across a kit for preparing homemade Mojito cocktails. Instead of a potted plant, you may give your guests seeds for sowing or a complete plant growing kit. Small amusement games like jigsaw puzzles or self-assembled mobiles are always fun and make nice mementos.
The Generous Giveaway Gift: Donations
You can always donate some money and compliment your guests by telling them that a part of their wedding gifts will go to those who need them more than you. A simply-designed card informing your guests of the donation you made will never fail to please and warm their hearts, and they would remember your wedding for yet another reason.
Tip: Take the donation into account in the planning of your wedding budget.
Here are a few additional ideas that we collected for you:
- Customized matchboxes – for a life with a spark.
- Shot glasses – to continue the celebration at home.
- Elegant honey jars – for a sweet life.
- Hangover kits – with aspirin, a water bottle and strong black coffee.
- Sunglasses – for a daytime wedding.
- Snuggle blankets – to preserve that warm feeling.
- Water bottles made from high-tech materials.
