Which wedding favours will you go for?
Follow these tips to find the perfect, unique gift to surprise all your guests:
- The ideal gift should reflect who you are, and give a nod to your passions, hobbies or dreams. If you love discovering new flavours, a foodie treat would be perfect. If board games are your thing, a game of skill can make a fun, meaningful gift.
- Consider a practical gift, a wedding favour your guests can use and enjoy every day. You can be sure it won’t be left by the wayside.
- Personalise as much as you can! Use labels with your names, add a handwritten note or lay out cards with a phrase that reflects you. These are physical keepsakes your guests will hold on to from your big day.
- Your wedding will have the same style throughout, and your wedding favours should reflect this aesthetic too.
Your loved ones will get to take home a wonderful personal keepsake, so let’s celebrate your day in style!

Wedding favours to keep on dancing
We know that your feet will be begging for a break at some point during the wedding. Comfy slippers are the perfect finishing touch, so your guests can keep dancing right the way through to the early hours.
They’re something they’ll use every day, they’re comfortable, unisex footwear and ideal for all your family and friends.
At IKEA you’ll find slippers in sizes S/M and L/XL.
You can even set up a table for the slippers and let your guests choose whichever size they need. Set up a sign or a board with a fun message, and organise the footwear by size in different sections.
Remember to decorate the table in keeping with your wedding aesthetic.
Eco-friendly wedding favours
More and more of us care about creating a better, more sustainable future. These favours will undoubtedly be unique and special but, more importantly, they’ll be useful, helping you share your message with your loved ones.
Plants make a lovely favour – you’ll be giving the gift of life and your guests get to look after them every day. Then there are handy essentials like a canvas bag, the perfect alternative to plastic bags.
Wedding favours for toasting
Glasses can make lovely favours, and your guests can raise a toast to you for many years to come. At IKEA we have a wide variety of red wine and white wine glasses, champagne flutes, and even beer or whisky glasses.
Even little ones can have their own glass to join in the toast!
Make your wedding favours even more special by adding a personal touch. You can present the glasses in a box personalised with each guest’s name, or have a message engraved directly onto each glass.
How about pairing them with a small bottle of wine or juice for the little ones? They’ll love the surprise!
Wedding favours for little ones
Don’t forget about your VIPs – the little ones! Consider gifts to keep them entertained: set up a painting kit with a notebook on the table for those with a creative side, or sweeten their day with some chocolates or sweets.

Unique wedding favours
Don’t overlook this part of the wedding, as it’s one of the most important aspects to think about. Give your guests a memorable, useful keepsake as a reminder of your special day.
The main thing is that your wedding favour reflects who you are as a couple and tells a little bit of your story. Your favours can be personalised, inspired by a theme you love that also matches your wedding aesthetic – your options are endless!
Unique wedding favours to surprise your loved ones.
How should you give out your wedding favours? It’s always a good idea to set them out on the tables, personalised with your guests’ names, so everyone knows where to sit. If you’re giving everyone the same favour and you don’t want to personalise them, use a beautifully decorated table to keep them all together so guests can help themselves. Or you could go traditional and hand them out in person! It’s a great opportunity to give all your guests a hug and have a chat.
Wedding favours brimming with style
I’m sure this is the part that’s giving you the biggest headache, as choosing the perfect favour for your wedding can be tricky. That’s why we’re offering you some tips to help you find unique wedding gifts that reflect who you are.
Look for a gift that represents you both, something related to your hobbies, your dreams... something that tells people who you are. Go for a practical favour that your guests can use, so it doesn’t end up left by the wayside. And if you can, make it as personal as possible! Use labels featuring your guests’ names or write a personal note for a unique touch to ensure they remember your wedding fondly.
