How many times have you been to a wedding where they passed out little sachets of nuts and dried fruits? This traditional favor has been popular for ages but the modern generation wishes to pass out fancy little trinkets to their guests. It is still possible to pass out the traditional favor but incorporate it into your modern wedding if you choose to do so. Instead of a sachet with a string tied around it look for favor bags in your theme colors. Just fill with treats of your choice and pull the string shut. You wedding favors will depend greatly on your budget. If you want to splurge a little more then pair it with a fancy container.
