Personalized fans are the best idea for an outdoor Summertime wedding! They will be so appreciated by your guests and add such an elegant element to the esthetic.

A personal favorite is this antique key that is also a bottle opener. But even better - Tie a ribbon on the key with guest names and table number. This would be perfect for a vintage themed wedding and having the table assignments double as a party favor cuts on cost.

How adorable are these tea pot and teacup place holders?! They radiate an elegant Southern wedding. They could totally be seen on the cover of Martha Stewart Weddings. Use them as place cards for table assignments and have. your guests take them home to use as a photo holder.

Let’s talk practicality! In today’s environment, everyone is using hand sanitizer non-stop. What a great idea to have a personalized miniature bottle of sanitizer at each guest’s dinner seat? Your guests would be so appreciative and could take this little favor with them to continue using.

Favors for the Home

If you are wanting a favor for your guests to take home, choose a favor they can use in their home! Guests will appreciate receiving favors that they can actually use. Personalizing these favors will also remind your guests of how much fun they had at your wedding each time they see it!

Bath bombs and these matches in a bottle are the perfect wedding favors to help your guests relax after a wedding weekend! Guests can use these candles to light a candle while indulging in the bathtub with a personalized bath bomb.

Miniature ‘Meant to Bee’ honey jars are also a wedding guest favorite! They are tiny enough to slide into the pockets of exiting guest's’ pockets and everyone loves having an extra jar of honey on hand. Personalize with your new last name for a fun reminder of your wedding night each time the guest goes for a spoonful of honey!

Personalized playing cards are another wedding favor that rank at the top of our list. Every household needs a good set of cards and your wedding day will sure to be the topic of conversation at game night.

Pro tip - Make sure your favors are small enough to fit in a pocket. Most guests go out after weddings so you don’t want to leave them carrying around a large item.

Keep Favors on Theme

The favor you choose should reflect the overall theme of your wedding! Send your guests home with a little memento of your special day.

For a destination wedding, these airplane bottle openers are a must have! Double this item as a seating placard by wrapping twine through the bottle opener loop with a name tag.

Sunscreen bottles are such a creative favor for destination or beach weddings! This is another favor that guests can continue to reuse while being reminded of your special day with the personalized labels.

A southern or country themed wedding can’t go wrong with these cowboy boot bottle openers. So on trend for a barn or farm wedding. This is a great example of how specific to your theme you should aim to be when choosing a favor.

Flower Girl Hair (10 & Under) in Charleston, SC

Next to the bride, the flower girl is the minor star of the wedding-day show. She’s the supporting cast to the bride’s big walk down the aisle, preparing the guests for the stunning beauty of the bride with the charm of an innocent. You’ll want your flower girl’s style to match your bridesmaids’ and the overall theme of your wedding. Dealing with children during a formal service which requires expected behaviors can be challenging, but with some flexibility and understanding of the child’s personality, needs, and comfort, she can bring memorable moments to your wedding day. Your best bet? Consult the child’s parents in matters of comfort, and keep those suggestions in mind when choosing a hairstyle for your flower girl.

Updos

The classic updo is a splendid choice for a child’s fine hair. A smooth top knot, messy bun, braided bun, or twist, the possibilities are nearly endless. Children’s hair tends to be finer and lighter than adults’ hair, so take into consideration the volume of the child’s hair and the shape of the face when choosing the right updo. Ideally, the hair should frame the cherubic face, and the design of the updo should provide a nice contrast of texture and smoothness. Adding flowers, a headband, tiara, or other accessory is a nice foil for smooth, straight hair.

Natural Beauty

You may choose a more casual style for your flower girl, especially if the child is sensitive. Tight updos may be uncomfortable for some children. If she’s uncomfortable, it’s less likely that you can expect your flower girl to carry out her duties smoothly and with a smile. Casual styles may include a half-braid which stops half-way down and blends into the rest of the hair, or twists that bring the top and front of the hair back and away from the face. Half-updo styles allow for creativity and adding texture to the style without the need for tight fastenings that might make the child uncomfortable. Lashes and Lace salon staff has extensive experience in creating beautiful, comfortable styles for children. Make your appointment today.
