If beauty is in the eye of beholder, then the value of a gift must surely be in the presentation! No, we are not kidding. Just give it a thought- doesn’t the sight of a beautifully wrapped up present topped with a dainty bow excite you a lot more than an unwrapped gift? We think that when it comes to giving your guests the best wedding favours, going the extra mile can earn you plenty of compliments. After all, wouldn’t you want your guests to go back home with a big smile?
So, here are our 5 ideas for great 2017 wedding favours that are doing the rounds this season. We agree that mithai and chocolates are nothing new, but we bet that you simply haven’t laid your eyes on this kind of gift presentation:

Potli Bags
These little Indian pouches work well when you want to keep the real treat inside small and cute. Use colourful ones for gifting jewellery, a handful of candy or an assortment of mini gifts. The ladies also get to re-use the bags when they go partying!

Chocolate Boxes
It’s safe to say that we have simply lost our hearts to these beautiful little chocolate boxes which are oh so dainty and oh so gorgeous. Emboss your partner’s and your initials on the boxes and get creative with the design. It’s a wonderful wedding favour keepsake for the guests too.

Jute Bags
Going green is in and that’s why couples are all for products that are environmentally friendly too. Jute bags are tough and can be used in so many ways. Not to forget that they come in all sorts of pretty designs and colours too. Undoubtedly this is one of our favourite 2017 wedding favours.
