“A picture is worth a thousand words” is the saying and combining the beauty and quality of glass with beautiful artwork or photos gives them a permanence that far surpasses paper. In social settings such as a wedding reception, it is the small details that turn a special occasion into an extraordinary one. Coasters placed under a glass is one of those details that shows grace and style that is associated with special social events.

But unlike printed matchbooks or other paper-based wedding favor, your guest will have an item that adds value to their life through its function.

Each time your guest uses the coaster, the pleasant memory of your special event will come to mind. And that is why wedding favors are cherished by most people; marriage is about love and the souvenir is the couple’s way of sharing that emotion.

And many couples have begun to focus more on making their receptions more festive, this is one type of wedding favor that’s appropriate for everyone. It is a tangible item that continues to send your wedding day memory to your family, friends and associates, helping them to create their own.

If you have never experienced dinner by candlelight, you owe it to yourself to try it just once. It brings a very different appreciation to an activity we do every day. Marriage ceremonies performed in candlelight intensifies the significance of the moment; unlike bright sunlight or florescent lighting, light from candles is diffused and enhances the atmosphere in a unique way. For couples who choose this type of ceremony as their romance statement, what better way to preserve the memory of the moment than with candle wedding favors?

Candles have long been associated with love and romance, indeed their light gives off an aura of mystery and power that is at the core of our emotions. Imagine the times before electricity when oil lamps and candles were the means of lighting homes, streets and businesses. How many films have been made that featured one of the characters using a candle to light their way up a staircase in a dark castle? Today candles are just as much a part of our lives as their ability to enhance the atmosphere has become more well-known.

In addition to providing light, candles are used as the carrier of fragrance which affects us through our physical sense of smell. Every fragrance source has its own attributes and candles that are made with these essential oils become agents that can soothe or revitalize the mind and body. This type of aromatherapy candle with rose fragrance as a souvenir from your wedding will evoke memories of your day each time it is used. The rose is flower that has come to symbolize love for many people and in aromatherapy its attribute is the power to heal the emotional heart.

The designs available in these wedding favors are only limited by your imagination. As freestanding candles or in a holder, you can create an expression of love and happiness that your guest can share. They are easy to personalize and come in a wide range of prices. From simple votive candles with your names and wedding date embossed wrapped in organza and tied with a ribbon to candles molded into the shape of a sailboat presented in a gift box, the choice is limitless.

These are some of the more reasonably priced wedding favors as well which is great for couples who want to give a beautiful reminder of their special day without going into debt. On the other hand, if cost is not a factor, you can create a truly unique design of your own and have produced. There are many companies that accept custom orders, but you need to place your order several weeks in advance.

Because candles are so adaptable there are many different types of themes you can use along with your names and wedding date; cultural, traditional and humorous are some of the most popular. You can also coordinate your candle wedding favors to the theme of your wedding; for example, starfish designs work well for weddings on the beach. These favors can be as whimsical as a cartoon character or as romantic as two hearts entwined.
