Unique wedding favours idea – Flip Flops

For those of you still in the planning stages of your wedding, one of the last few things you’ll find on your list at the wedding favours. At Essex Wedding Services, we’ve written many different blog posts with wedding favour ideas, so you have no excuse to leave it to the last moment and then buy those awful sugared almonds that no one likes.

Today’s new idea for you will definitely hit a cord with the ladies. How many times have you been to a wedding and by the time the DJ starts getting people on the dance floor, your brand new shoes have started to murder your feet, so you end up taking them off, only to dance around them ?
The solution is to provide your wedding guests with flip-flop wedding favours.

Flip-flops are incredibly inexpensive, especially if you hunt around for a bulk purchase, and the idea of everyone wearing them on the dance floor adds to the fun.
You can type up and print off your own personal messages and attach them to the flip flops, inviting your wedding guests to relax and wear them later in the evening should their feet start to hurt.

An additional idea would be to have your names and wedding date printed on them, providing the guests with an even more fun memento of your special day.

So when you’ve worked your way down the list of things you’re planning for your wedding day, and you get to the part that says “Wedding Favours” – don’t just follow the traditional route, try to make them fun, and something that the wedding guests will enjoy and even be able to use again.
