Favors for an Island Wedding

An island wedding is, by definition, more casual and carefree than a traditional church wedding. The favors you choose for your guests should ideally reflect this leisurely ambiance. Favors can be left at plate settings at the reception, put into guest rooms, or given in a small gift bag at the wedding ceremony or reception. Below are just a few island-themed ideas.

• Beach-themed disposable cameras
• Leather "flip-flop" key rings
• Sand and shell-filled candles
• Starfish and shell-shaped soaps
• Sand bucket candles
• Silver shell-shaped salt and pepper shakers
• Silver shell-shaped wine stoppers
• Fanciful shell, starfish, and fish-shaped place card holders
• Beach-themed coasters
• Island-themed picture frames with pictures of the wedding couple
• Pineapple-shaped silver place card holders (ideal for an Hawaiian Island wedding)

Most companies that sell wedding favors have a minimum number you must order, and some offer a discount for larger quantities. Ask whether the company will ship the items directly to your wedding destination. Many destination wedding companies, such as Destination Weddings.com, offer a full line of island-themed favors as well as travel planning services. It's one stop shopping.
