When you are having a wedding, you will be giving lots of gifts. The primary gifts involved will be the wedding favors and bridesmaid and groomsmen gifts, but you may also wish to give gifts to your parents, your favorite vendors, and even each other. These are some wedding gift packaging ideas to help make the outside of your presents as special as the inside.
Your bridesmaids play a big part in making your wedding memorable, and so you will surely want to make sure that their thank you gifts are equally memorable. Of course, the main focus will be on selecting bridesmaid gifts which are thoughtful and special, but beautiful packaging will also show your appreciation for them. A very pretty idea for the little boxes which hold bridesmaid jewelry is to print out an image of lace onto nice paper and wrap the boxes with it. Use a paper which is thin enough to wrap the lid and box separately, so that the box remains pretty even once it is opened.
The wedding favors will make a big visual impact at your reception because they are displayed in a large group. Be sure that the presentation of the favors adds something to the style of your wedding. If you used the printed lace template idea for your bridesmaid gifts, you can carry it through to your favors. Small boxes can be wrapped with it, or use lace printed cardstock to form a cone to hold candies, especially traditional Jordan almonds. Trim the lace patterned cones with bits of pretty ribbon around the top and line with a piece of tissue paper. When displaying favors in cones, place them into something which will help them stand up so the contents remain inside.
The traditional cracker shape of gift packaging is not just for Christmas. It is an easy thing to do for your wedding favors, as well. Take a cardboard tube and cover it with tissue or rice paper in your wedding colors. More tissue is wrapped to form a spray of tissue beyond the tube and tied with a ribbon on each end. You can easily personalize the look of the cracker packaging depending on what you select for ribbons, tissue, and other adornments. This is a style of favor wrapping which looks especially nice for gifts which are set at each guest s place at the dinner table.
Small bags are an old favorite for holding wedding favors. The nice thing about making your own little bags is that they can be shaped to fit your gifts perfectly. They can be created from paper or fabric, and can be as frilly or tailored as you like. The classic organza or tulle circle holding wedding candies is not particularly original, but it can work for a traditional wedding, especially when dressed up with a unique and beautiful ribbon. A more modern take on the favor bag is to create small bags from special paper (look for instructions online) and tie them across the top with ribbon threaded through holes punched in the bags. Don t forget the custom labels to make the favor wrapping extra special.
Speaking of custom labels, they are the ideal way to make any favor presentation more special, no matter how simple it may be. A bottle of wine, a jam jar, a generic candy box – any of these can be made chic in an instant with your own unique labels. You can get printable templates online and print them on sticker paper for your very own diy wedding tags. Or print your special message or monogram on heavy paper and tie to the favor package with a pretty bit of ribbon. Finally, don t overlook the option of getting a custom made rubber stamp to print onto boxes or bags. The initial outlay will be minimal compared to the beautiful effect you can create with your personalized wedding gift packaging.
