Eco Wedding Favors - Four Ideas

by Jennifer on May 12th, 2008

Greener wedding favors should be made with eco sense (i.e. organic) or be something people will use and use; not just toss. Here are a few ideas…

Plantable Petal Cones Kit (for holding flower petals, lavender grains, rice, etc.) from Favor Creative

Redwood, Pine, or Spruce trees from the Arbor Day Foundation - each plant ready tree comes in a recyclable container that converts into a bird feeder. You can also personalize your messages on the tree container.

These are all wonderful ideas! Sadly I already bought my dress the day before you came out with the eco friendly ideas for dresses, but this is something I will definitely be doing… Now if only I could just pick one! Love them all.

I forgot to mention how excited I was that these are all reasonably priced.

I like the pears - because they come in a wooden box (reusable) and most everyone likes to make cookies, so it’s an ongoing gift. Plus they’re so darn cute. I’ve got a few more favors coming up before the month is over. It’s hard to find real green favors; lots of the sites list stuff as “green” but really they’re not when you look into it.

Of course I’d choose the Endangered Species Chocolate!

Nice list.

I love this idea. I’ve been trying to figure out what to get my guests as favors! Thanks so much!

@Peggy of course! And your guests would thank you.

@Liz I hope one of these works out well :) Or stay tuned, I’m trying to gather some more up before the month is out.
