Guest gifts are small presents, which the bride and groom give to the guests after the wedding as a Thank-you.

The best thing is to make the guests happy and let them take the gifts home. The best ideas are original, sweet or smirking. In any case, great as a memory and simply too pity to throw away.

Long before we handed out small, original guest gifts for the wedding, in the southern countries, it was tradition to give the guests something special. Originally there were 5 wedding tulips in a small organza or tulle bag, made from the veil of the bride. Each of the wedding tulips still stands today for a good wish: love, loyalty, happiness, child blessings and success.
Today, you do not have to sacrifice the wedding dress or braid for your guests – you can think of small niceties, which really delight the guests. We share the (as we find) the best ideas of weddings which we attended.

 

  1. 1. Happy Feet

An original idea: Give the guests flip-flops! Set up a big basket next to the dance floor and place flip-flops inside. Then the ladies can put their heels into the corner and take a bold approach. Even the men are certainly glad to slip out of their tight shoes. Possibly only crack point: Turn the heating on …

 

  1. 2. A secret recipe

Is there a (secret) recipe after all your girlfriends ask you? Then give it to your guests and write it on elegant, matching wedding cards. The idea also works great with a specially designed cocktail for you (for example, in your wedding bouquet color …), which you can throw at your wedding.

 

  1. 3. Wedding water bottles

Most weddings take place in the summer when it is hot. Since it is especially important to drink a lot. Maybe from a bottle of this kind? Very nice also look simple aluminum bottles, which you can decorate with your colors and initials as well as a “thank you” card.

 

  1. 4. A mini-bottle

Personalized mini-bottles, filled with champagne, wine, whiskey or tequila, make really great guest gifts if you pack them properly and write them. Let’s see how many mini-bottles actually make it home …

 

  1. 5. Flower seeds

Let love grow! A guest gift that lasts for a long time and then also gives pleasure to the eye? Pretty packaged flower seeds are a very great idea. For example, it can be wrapped in a wrapping paper envelope bearing the words “seeds of love”. If you decide for this gift, you can even do something for the bees and buy “bee-friendly organic flower seeds”. An Instagram inspiration here.

 

  1. 6. Polaroid souvenirs

A great present, with which you can also ask a bridesmaid or a maid of honor: He or she should snap the Polaroid camera and take pictures of you and your guests. These are printed directly and put into a personally designed by you. The old school look is really charming.

 

  1. 7. Cakepops

You would like to give something sweet, but classic wedding almonds are not what you are looking for? Then try with Cakepops in “bride and groom” optic. For this you can make normal Cakepops, which you white and black dyes and decorates. Thank-you card and ready.

 

  1. 8. Honey or jam

In the “creative-sweet” category is also the personalized jam or the honey in the decorated glass.

 

  1. 9. Boys & Girls Party survival kit

Celebrate parties? Then be gracious with your guests and give them a party survival kit. Pack headache pills, sunglasses, cigars, or even small, funny accessories that your people can wear in photos. The selection of small gifts is huge and you can customize the gifts to your wedding theme.
Quite practical, such a survival kit.

 

  1. 10. Macarons

This sweet French temptation not only looks irresistibly pretty, it is also practical. The only thing you have to do to turn them into guest gifts is to pack them in a small box, loop a loop and place them on the table. Voilà. So this is how it should look like.

 

  1. 11. Candles

Honestly, do you know someone who does not like candles? So handmade, smelling of beeswax? Exactly. That is why candles are the perfect guest present in many cases. You can even make the candles yourself, or order from a manufacturer. For example, at a company like La Chandelle House. Very nice.

 

  1. 12. Cookie buffet with take-away containers

Yes, we did not feel bad when we saw this idea. A cookie buffet, where the guests can snack during the wedding and after the feast take a few souvenirs home.

 

  1. 13. Popcorn

Create a flavours for your own popcorn. How about butter cake? Tequila Sunrise? Rose red Dye it in your wedding colours and pack it into plastic bags that fit your party. This or This may it look like.

 

  1. 14. Soap

All we need is a little love. And now and then still some soap, so that we remain nice clean. That is why we liked the idea with the handmade organic soaps so much. Find your favourite flavours (rose, lavender, ylang-ylang?), Print labels with your name, a note and the date, and tag the tags with wrapping paper.

 

  1. 15. Lotto Tickets

For a little excitement among the guests make lotto tickets. Unfortunately, the Tix are rarely pretty to look at. We recommend that you pack them in beautiful envelopes or cards. Maybe in this style.
