How to Pick Party Favors for a Debutante Ball

Party favors are good for adding a finishing touch to your debutante ball. Pick party favors that will complement the theme of your party and allow your guests to remember the fun times long after the event ends.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• T-shirts or sweatshirts
• Disposable cameras
• CDs and labels
• Candy
• Gift bags
• Coffee mugs or drinking glasses

1. Customize articles of clothing like t-shirts or sweatshirts as party favors for your debutante ball. Incorporate a picture of the debutante and the date and name of the party into the design of the clothing.
2. Provide each of your guests with a disposable camera to take her own photographs during the debutante ball. Purchase photo albums and customize the cover with the name and date of the party. This will give your guests the materials to create their own personalized party favors by making their own photo albums with pictures they take.
3. Make CDs of the debutante's favorite songs to hand out as party favors. Pick songs that you are likely to play at the debutante ball, so that your guests will be able to associate the songs with their memories of the party. Print out CD labels with the date of the party and a list of the names of each song included.
4. Create a gift bag of the debutante's favorite candy to give to your guests as party favors. If possible, choose candy that is color coordinated with the decorations at your debutante ball. Wrap a colored ribbon around the handles of the gift bags to give them a more elegant appearance.
5. Have special coffee mugs or drinking glasses printed with a brief message from the debutante, thanking the guests for coming. Most party stores offer this service at moderate prices. This type of party favor is likely to last a long time and will act as a nice reminder of the ball for your guests.

Tips & Warnings

• Always be prepared with a few extra party favors. There is a good possibility that friends or family members of your guests may unexpectedly attend your party and expect party favors.
• Pick party favors that match the theme of your debutante ball. For example, a warm hat or scarf would be a nice party favor for a winter or holiday-themed debutante ball.
