Choosing Elegant Spring & Garden Wedding Favors

By Aaron H.

Spring is one of the most common times for couples to get married. New life is beginning all around them following the cold starkness of winter, and couples are marrying to begin a new life together as man and wife instead of two individuals alone. A lot of the symbolism of spring and growing life is a perfect representation of the new marriage, so saying "Thank you" to one's guests by giving spring or garden wedding favors is a great idea.

The giving of favors has become traditional at weddings in recent years. These small, usually inexpensive items are given to one's guests as "Thank you" gifts that convey the gratitude of the bride and groom in a better and more personal manner than sending out "Thank you" cards alone can do. These little items make wonderful keepsakes that will remind the guests of the joy they shared with the happy couple for many years to come, whenever the item is looked at.

Spring wedding favors are usually bright in color as an homage to the growth and vibrancy of new life following the stark blacks and whites of winter. Couples who marry in spring commonly use bright colors in their decorations for the same reason. Nearly all Spring wedding favors celebrate young life, one of the things that spring is noted for with animals of all sorts giving birth more in spring than any other time of year and new green plants shooting forth after the temporary death of winter.

Garden wedding favors also recognize the beginning of new life. Flowers of many varied and bright colors are often incorporated into these gift items. In fact, one of the more popular varieties of garden wedding favors is a packet of mixed flowering seeds that the recipient can take home and add to their own flower gardens to have a lasting reminder of the happiness they shared with the couple every time the new plants bloom.

Shopping for spring or garden wedding favors has gotten much easier since the invention of the internet. It is now possible to find these items in much wider variety and at more reasonable prices by shopping online than was ever possible when one was limited to making purchases at a local bridal shop. Also, because the internet is a global marketplace, the actual season where one lives is not a concern because these items are always in season somewhere in the world.

Spring and garden wedding favors are a great addition to any party to celebrate a new marriage regardless of the season. These items symbolize the beginning of new life, which is what getting married is, the beginning of a new life together. They thank the guests for taking time out of their own busy schedules to celebrate with the happy couple more effectively than simply sending out a card later could ever do and provide the guests with a memento by which to remember the happy occasion for many years to come.
