Candles are nice, but choose something that is reminiscent of fall such as apple shapes and rusty colors of autumn.

Having a fall wedding can be very beautiful but can also present some unique challenges, such as how to find the right fall wedding favors! This article will tell you exactly how to do that.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Your first step in finding the right fall wedding favors is to keep in mind the overall theme or tone of your wedding. Is it casual and outdoors, or more elegant and traditional?

  2. Step 2

    Your next step is to tailor whatever fall wedding favors you prefer to match the season. For instance, an elegant wedding may call for picture frames as wedding favors. Choose some in a nice warm wood, rather than silver or another metal, to make them appropriate for fall.

  3. Step 3

    If you're looking for fall wedding favors that are appropriate for your casual outdoor wedding, think of items that celebrate the outdoors. Note cards in a nice tan with a leaf motif might work well as fall wedding favors. Making sure the favors match your wedding as well as the season is very important; a casual wedding calls for casual favors, whereas a more elegant wedding means more elegant favors, regardless of the season.

  4. Step 4

    Keep in mind the colors of the season as you decide. Candles in a rusty red color, or small wooden boxes that are painted or stained a warm brown, remind your guests of autumn more than colors such as mint green or pale pink. These colors are important when choosing fall wedding favors.

  5. Step 5

    If you've purchased favors that come individually boxed, buy some wrapping paper in a nice autumn color such as rusty brown or deep gold. Wrap each favor individually, and then tie them with wide ribbon that complements the paper. You can even use burlap paper and thick twine for a casual wedding.

Tips & Warnings
  • Dress up your wrapped fall wedding favors by sliding a single autumn flower, such as a mum or Queen Anne's lace, under the ribbon.
  • If you're using a creative type of wrapping paper such as burlap, wrap one box completely and tie it with a ribbon before moving on to the next so that you're sure all of them will look appropriate.
