Warm Up With Apple Cider:
Okay, who doesn’t love a cup of warm cider on a cold night? This rings especially true when the packaging is super easy to put together and can be done well in advance of your big day. Simply purchase some pre-made cider mix, a few caramels, and combine them with ribbon. Add a label that says something like, “Let love warm you inside and out” and you’re good to go. If you really want to take things over the top, add a small nip of vanilla vodka for good measure.

Consider Giving Bird Feeder Hearts:
Special Thanks to Intimate Weddings for the recipe!
A great choice for animal lovers, this bird feeder favor will leave your guests thinking of you long after the celebration is over. Making these is even simpler than baking cookies since they don’t spend any time in the oven. In the biggest bowl you own, 3/4 cup flour, 1/2 cup water, 1 envelope unflavored gelatin, and 3 tablespoons corn syrup. Then, add in about 4 cups of birdseed and stir to combine. Firmly pack the mixture down into a greased, heart-shaped cookie cutter and use a bamboo skewer to poke a small hole through the top of the heart for jute to hang it. Remove the cutter and let the feeders dry for 6-8 hours. Finally, feed the jute through the hole and make a loop that’s attached to a cute thank you message.

Wrap Up Some Mulling Spices:
Even if you’re not crafty, you can still assemble adorable wedding favors with pre-made elements. This favor proves it. Go to a spice retailer and pick out your favorite mulling spices – cinnamon, cloves, allspice, and nutmeg, dried fruit. Try to buy wholesale and in bulk for the biggest savings. Then, follow a recipe to put the proportions together. If you’re wedding is rustic, just tie them up in some cheesecloth or burlap. If you’re going more modern, use a small, corked bottle for a sleeker look. Cheekier couples, don’t miss out on your chance to make a pun about how your love is “sweet and a little spicy” in the tag.

Bake Off Mini Pie Tins:
This one is for the bakers. Don’t miss out on the chance to show off your skills. All you have to do is spoon your favorite pie recipe – We recommend, apple pie, pumpkin, or pecan for the time of year – into an oven-safe container. Seriously, anything from mason jars to sturdy cupcake liners, you choose. If your wedding party also includes pastry fanatics, use this as a fun pre-wedding bonding activity. We guarantee your guests will go so nuts over these that they’ll be gone before your first course.
