Whether your wedding vibe is black tie and glitzy orcozy and comfortable, there are many ways to celebrate the season with your wedding dress, colors, food and favors. 


Wedding favors are tokens to thank guests for attending.  If you want your favors to evoke a winter feel, consider choosing items that represent warmth, coziness and staying indoors. You may also want to lean on the holiday season, opting for wedding favors that are traditional Christmas colors, like red, green, white, silver or gold. Or tap into the natural beauty of Michigan winter with favors reminiscent of snow, evergreens, pine cones or holly. 

We’ve put together a few of our favorite winter wedding favor ideas to add a unique touch to your big day.
