Personalized Honey
It's meant to bee! Give your guests something tasty and sweet that they can use as soon as they get home. If you're more of a DIY-er, make the honey yourself (you can do this) and package it in a mason jar that can be re-used. Cute and useful.

Tubes full of candy
No one is going to say no to a tube full of delicious goodies. Pick up some clear, recyclable tubes, head to Bulk Barn and fill 'em up with your favourite delectables. If you're having a winter wedding, pour in some hot chocolate mix! If it's around Valentine's Day, candied hearts will do the trick. The options are endless.

Lottery tickets
We can guarantee that everyone at your wedding (who's over the age of 18, at least) will love you forever if you give them this favour. Pack a quick-scratch lotto card in a paper bag and label it "For Richer or Poorer." We'll leave it up to you whether you request a percentage of any winnings (we're joking... kind of).
