Unique Favor Ideas for a Beach Wedding
Two to five percent of the wedding budget should be allotted for wedding gifts, which includes favors, according to "How to Start a Wedding Planning Business" by Cho Phillips. Many modern women opt for wedding favors that will make their special occasion memorable and stand out, rather than choosing the traditional matchbook favors. Whether you are having your wedding on a tropical beach or plan to create your own beach theme wedding in an event space under a tent, you can find beach-themed wedding favors that express the personality of the bride and groom. In addition, there are plenty of practical and functional beach-themed wedding favors available. When purchasing favors, buy in bulk to help save on the wedding budget.

I'm all for personalized wedding favors, they're awesome! Another type of personalized favors that I saw at a beach wedding recently were personalized beach wedding ornaments. They were cute beach / palm tree ornaments with the couple's name on them and everyone seemed to love them. I searched around online for some sites that had them so you can get an idea -- OrnamentsAndMore.com seemed to have a good selection! Happy beach wedding planning!
