As wedding favours can be quite an expense to the modern bride and groom, many couples are opting for favours that are practical.

Once almonds and dragees have been consumed from bomboniere nets, very few guests will actually keep the material and ribbon. Equally, once the candy, sweets or chocolate has been enjoyed from favour boxes and bags, do people actually keep the containers? Although many would, it is worth considering a favour for your guests that has a practical as well as thoughtful purpose.

Why not go for tea or coffee wedding favours? Champagne wedding favours? Wine wedding favours? Or cocktail wedding favours?

Tea wedding favours is a broad heading for a wide range of products you could offer your guests at your reception. Did you know that tea is one of the most popular drinks in the world? As so many couples are looking for something different for their wedding reception, why not keep up with the drinking trends and offer guests this alternative to traditional wedding favours?

Many couples are choosing 'Perfect Blend' loose tea, the bag of which can be personalised with the names of the bride and groom along with their wedding date. You can also choose from a range of backgrounds from Pastel Hearts to Beach Chairs and from Roses to Trees. These offer couples a stylish gift at a reasonable price. Just think, guests recall your happiness as they enjoy a rich, traditional blend of tea months after your big day.

Some couples are more enamoured with decorated flower, shoe or purse sugar cubes [although these are not especially practical and are not personalised].

You can also purchase many flavored boxed teas and offer guests these as an alternative wedding favour. On the other hand, you may be impressed by Gourmet tea tins, designer pewter tea infusers, mint tea sets or mini tea tins. When it comes to tea wedding favours, the list truly is endless.

Equally as warming, unique and delicious are coffee wedding favours. Coffee is such a widely used drink that offering guests personalised coffee favours keeps brides very much at the forefront of consumer tastes. It also guarantees to keep guests talking due to its diversity! Long after you say your vows, guests can enjoy an exclusive blend of the finest coffee whilst remembering your special day.

As with tea wedding favours, coffee wedding favours come with a range of different coloured and patterned backgrounds. Whichever you choose, you are assured of a fabulous response from your guests as they delight in receiving your coffee wedding favours.

If you are feeling a bit more daring, a truly different type of wedding favour is a cocktail wedding favour. Perhaps reserve sweets, candy or chocolate for the younger guests, but for the adults, wine wedding favours, champagne wedding favours and cocktail wedding favours give your wedding a fun twist.

As with packets of tea and coffee favours, cocktail wedding favours come in personalised packages containing a cocktail drink mix! There are several flavored varieties to choose from and these ensure that your wedding is keeping up with the latest trends!

When it comes to wine wedding favours, there are lots of different ways of providing guests with a 'boozy' gift. Whether you are looking for a chrome heart wine stopper with a chrome tuxedo heart corkscrew, or a wine glass candle or a personalised wine label, you can no doubt find a wine wedding favour to suit you.

The favour of all favours, has to be the champagne wedding favour. Personalised bottles of champagne are a great way to set a lavish theme to your wedding. Champagne wedding favour glasses can also be given as elegant favours, often personalised with the names of the bride and groom. What exquisite taste your guests will think you have if you go for champagne wedding favours! And why not, after all, it's probably the biggest party you will ever host in your lives!

Whether you opt for a tea wedding favour or a coffee wedding favour, a cocktail wedding favour, wine wedding favour or a champagne wedding favour, you are guaranteed to impress your guests with your luxury and diversity.
