Weddings are a big deal for everyone involved and when planning a wedding, one often plans a wedding with the hopes that not only does everything live up to the expectations of the bride and groom, but the guests are left with a wonderful memory as a part of the joyous occasion. Finding ways to thank the loved ones in your life for their support and love during the wedding is often a tough choice as too often are wedding goers left with impractical or gaudy wedding favors that end up in a store room or worse, the trash. Here at Scent Journer, we believe that wedding favors can and should be something personal and memorable for guests to remember the auspicious day by. Scented wedding favors are an elegant and memorable way to thank your guests for sharing in your special day and by incorporating delightful fragrances, you can leave a lasting impression and complement your wedding theme. Here are some creative and unique scented wedding favor ideas that will enchant your guests and add a personalized touch to your celebration.
Creative and Memorable Scented Wedding Favor Ideas
-
Personalized Scented Candles
Popular as home decor and for scenting up spaces, candles can be made with a customized scent, and the containers decorated according to the themes of the wedding with other personal touches such as the wedding date, bride and groom’s names, or a special message representative of the day. -
Scented Soaps
Soaps in both bar and liquid form can be a practical and unique scented wedding gift. You could opt for artisan soaps crafted with natural ingredients and infused with delightful fragrances in various shapes, sizes, and colors to suit your wedding theme. You could also opt for liquid soaps and decorate the bottle with other personalized sticker labels. While at Scent Journer we do not do bar soaps, we offer three of our signature fragrances in 5ml and 300ml liquid soap form. These scents include ‘A Blooming Jewel’, ‘A Starlit Spell’, and ‘Soaring at Dawn’, all unique perfumed body scents that are pleasant on the skin and will leave you smelling fresh and good. -
Miniature Perfume Bottles
Perfume is a luxurious and personal gift that wedding guests can use to remember your special day. Gifting small vials of perfume or cologne that reflect the couple's favorite scents provides intimacy and closeness with the bride and groom as guests now own a little bit of the fragrance that reminds them of the people they love. An entirely unique fragrance that fits the theme of the wedding can also be used and with the strong ties between smells and memories and emotions, this allows not just the bride and groom, but the guests to remember the joy and memories of your wedding day with every spritz of this fragrance. The bottles can be engraved or decorated with specially printed sticker labels to celebrate your special day. -
Scent Room Sprays
Designing light and refreshing mists to scent up rooms allows for everyone to enjoy the fragrance if they aren't keen on wearing certain scents on their body or have sensitive skin. The bespoke fragrance can also be used to scent up your wedding venue to tie in the fragrances and bring you and your guests back to the altar anytime they use the fragrance in their homes. Similar to perfumes the bottles can be engraved or decorated with specially printed sticker labels to celebrate your special day. -
Scented Hand Sanitizers
Custom-scented hand sanitizers that combine practicality with a personal touch. With increased hygiene awareness, hand sanitizers are both useful and thoughtful gifts.
Complementing the Wedding Theme
Integrating scented wedding favors into your wedding is not difficult at all. To seamlessly integrate scented wedding favors with your wedding theme you can consider the following:
-
Match the Scents
Choose fragrances that complement your floral arrangements or the season of your wedding. For instance, lavender for a spring wedding, citrus for summer, or cinnamon for a winter celebration. -
Harmonize the Design
Ensure the packaging and presentation of the favors match your wedding colors and overall aesthetic. Elegant fonts, matching ribbons, and cohesive color schemes can enhance the visual appeal. -
Personal Touch
Add personalized elements such as monograms, custom labels, or heartfelt messages to make each favor unique and memorable. -
Scent your Wedding Venue!
If indoors, scenting up your wedding venue with similar scents to what you will use in your wedding favors is the perfect complement to associate the fragrance with your special day.
Conclusion
Incorporating scented wedding favors into your celebration adds an extra layer of elegance and personalization. Whether through candles, perfumes, soaps, or other fragrant gifts, these favors are sure to delight your guests and create lasting memories.
