Seed Packets

Seed packets for vegetables and herbs are a great way to encourage guests to start their own edible gardens. You can order personalized seed packets with the bride and groom's names and wedding date on them, or purchase plain packets inexpensively and add personalized stickers for a less expensive option. For another alternative, place seeds in a circle of tulle fabric and tie with personalized ribbon that features the bride and groom's names and wedding date.
Helping Endangered Species

Guests will appreciate a tasty favor that also helps animals in danger. Endangered Species Chocolate donates money for at-risk animal species like koalas and giraffes for every chocolate bar you purchase. Each bar is wrapped in a label that features the animal species you are helping along with interesting facts about that animal. You can purchase these favors online at Chocolate Bar.

Eco-Friendly Totes

Canvas totes, rolled and tied with a bow, make for attractive and practical favors. Include a note that encourages guests to take the reusable tote on grocery store trips to use in place of the disposable plastic bags that add mass to landfills and paper bags that kill trees.
Personalized Water Bottles
-
Many companies let your personalize aluminum water bottles with the bride and groom's initials and wedding dates. This useful favor encourages guests to fill a reusable water bottle at home instead of purchasing plastic water bottles that often end up in landfills, gutters and strewn on beaches.
