The Best Wedding Favors for 2023

Creative and Unique Wedding Favors for 2022

Wedding season is quickly approaching, and I can tell by the hits on my blog that many of you are in full planning mode. It is difficult to come up with the perfect wedding favor that suits you as a couple, is within your budget, and also isn’t labor intensive. While many brides and grooms want to make their own favors, when it gets closer to the day often there simply is not time. Fortunately, there are many options out there and creatives who are willing to do the work for you. I spent some time this week looking around on Etsy and other sites, and put together a list of my favorite 22 wedding favor ideas for 2023. Many of these work for bridal showers and other parties as well, so they are worth a look even if you aren’t getting married this year.

Note: This list was originally posted in 2022, and has been updated for 2023.
