Christmas Wedding Favor Ideas

Many couples choose to get married during the holiday season. Typically churces and other areas are already decorated for the season, and their guests are already in a festive spirit. Wedding colors of red and green are easy to use, and big beautiful Christmas trees can make a great backdrop for pictures. And so, in keeping with the Christmas spirit, here are some great ideas for Christmas wedding favors with a festive flair that your guests will really appreciate. Homemade wedding favors are still popular, and with a Christmas theme, ther e are a lot of ideas to choose from.

1. Christmas Ornaments - Grab some clear glass Christmas Ornaments and fill them up with whatever you like. Use small rose buds, plastic berries, or other festive filler. Another thought is to make a printout of your names and wedding date, and include it on the inside of the clear ornament. Then simply tie a ribbon with your colors around the top. This is also a great way to add some color to your tables.

2. Candy Canes - Candy canes wrapped with ribbons and a romantic verse are another great idea. You can also scatter miniature candy canes on the table for snacking and to add some color, or leave larger ones around the table at each place setting as a place card, or both.

3. Christmas Stockings - This is a more complicated idea, but again the possibilities are endless. You can buy sets of plain Christmas stockings at craft stores and use glitter glue to attach each guests name. Fill the stockings with whatever you like, candies, oranges, thank you cards for their attendance are just a few ideas. Drape them across the side of each chair as a place setting.

4. Christmas Cookies - Make some sugar cookies, or have a friend do it, and use cookie cutters in shapes of Christmas trees, stockings or Santa's, and sprinkle with festive colored sugar or sprinkles. Leave one at each place setting as an after dinner treat.

5. Miniature Christmas Wreaths - Miniature Christmas wreaths can be purchsed at many craft stores, and definately make a statement! To decorate, buy some greenery or plastic berries and leave one at every place setting. This is a great idea if you are craftsy and have some experience.

Use your imagination with your wedding favors, you have a lot to work with if you are using a Christmas theme. Your guests will appreciate the homemade wedding favors and will have something to help decorate their homes and remember your wedding for years to come.

Acceptable Wedding Gifts
Marriage as the base of our community and as an institution has changed considerably from what it was when our grandparents got married, even from when our parents got married. Attitudes, concepts and the way family, careers, equality and even gay relationships are perceived has led to a change in the structure of society: due to several experiences people are getting married later in life, young naive or inexperienced couples getting divorced more often, marrying more than once, and living longer. If we compare this scenario to the one we saw only a few decades ago, couples would get married and set up home together, now usually people live together first, or it is a second or third marriage where two homes are being merged into one.
