By Ashley Fauning

Spring is a wonderful season to have a wedding. Congratulations on choosing the perfect time to celebrate the beginning of your new life together! And since you now have the date set, it is time to start planning the details that will make your day perfect. Spring wedding favors is one of the most fun details to plan. They are something to give to each of your guests to say thank you and show your appreciation for them.

Are you looking for a fresh and unique idea for your Spring wedding favors? Take a look at this list:

1. Plantable seed favors are growing in popularity, but are definitely still a fresh idea. These little favors can be a representation of how your love grows and blooms. Your guests will be reminded of your wedding ceremony for months to come as the take the seed packets home, plant and grow them into beautiful flowers. You could use them as place cards at the table, write thank you notes on each of them, or just attach them to your reception or wedding program.

2. Tulip bulbs can make a fresh springtime wedding favor as well! If taken care of properly, they will bloom every spring and remind your guests over and over of you and your spouse's love. You can put the bulbs in a plain white box, or even a sachet, and wrap with wedding color ribbon. Place at the tables, and they can serve as some major decorations! You can also personalize each one of these with a thank you note.

3. Depending on your theme and budget you can go with salt and pepper shakers! These are usually small, yet a very springy idea! Just with a quick search, I found two peas in a pod salt and pepper shaker, baby chick shakers, and cherry blossom shakers. Imagine the smiles on your guests' faces to see such a unique wedding favor!

4. Candles are another very popular favor. Candles come in a variety of presentations - tins, tea lights, and beautifully wrapped. What makes candles such a great spring wedding favor is their scents. With a variety of fresh and fragrant scents, you can make your reception hall smell wonderful and your guests will be able to take the scent of your day home with them!

5. If you are looking for a more affordable idea, then you can go with candy. Especially the younger kids at the wedding will appreciate this spring wedding favor! You can wrap and tie up the candy with your wedding colors, personalize with a thank you or poem, and choose endless options that will match your them. This is also a quick favor where if you are short on time will just need candy, sachets, and ribbon.

6. Fragrant and attractive, whole leaf tea sachets are another choice for a spring wedding favor. They will add a touch of elegance to your special day and you can get them in tins, boxes, or sachets. What a wonderfully unique way to thank your guests.

This is only six ideas with many more available to you. Hopefully this list will spark your imagination and you will find that special touch to add to thank your guests. The next step is finding the best deal and the best place to buy from. With so many online places to choose from, I am working on putting together a list of places that compares pricing of where you can buy from. Wishing you a perfect wedding! - 15437
