Eco Friendly Wedding Favor Ideas

These eco friendly wedding favor ideas are easy on the earth and your wallet. No need to buy junk that will end up in a landfill for your wedding - and this includes wedding favors!

After all, wedding favors are generally a little token of appreciation that represents you as a couple, so if you are a "green" couple, then your favors should be too!

Twig Colored Pencils - I absolutely love these as wedding favors and place card holders too! Not only are they eco friendly wedding favors, but they are functional too. Be sure to have some recycled paper at the tables that say, "Draw a picture or write a special note to the newlyweds" and have someone collect them at the end of the night. When you read these later on, you'll see how silly the messages get as the night goes on - and as the wine keeps pouring.

You can get these twig pencil sets for just a few bucks each from Wanda an eBay seller. To make it even cheaper I'd split them up so each guest gets just a few. If you don't see them listed, write her a note and see if she can get you some.

For easy tags, buy a paper punch in a shape you like (like my leaf) and punch through some recycled paper!

Seed Packet Favors - Purchase organically cultivated seeds for your seed packet favors and/or stick to native plants too. Here are several more seed packet favor ideas for DIY favor projects.

Edible & Organic - Edible is always good in the world of favors, so why not pick organic versions of your favorite candies, chocolates, coffee or tea?

It’s your wedding, do it the way you want!
