Along with many other moms I know, I've decided that the best kinds of party favors are those that will be a lasting memento of the event. Thus, a photograph, frame or small personalized item makes a lovely wedding favor. As for kids, a small book, cup or even hula hoop or tie dyed tee shirt makes a much better favor than plastic junk that breaks in the car on the way home.

It's simple, looks good on a table and people can actually use it. And the cookbook idea - that's a great way to bring your wedding guests together too! I like the bookmark idea!

Very classy. We went with bookmarks that had an Emerson quote and then our names and the date. We had a ton, and it's fun to see my kids using some of the leftovers now. Some friends of ours had people send in recipes with their R.S.V.P.s, then compiled a cookbook for favors for the guests. I use that cookbook so often!!! I’ve never seen the tea bag favors before.
