Favor Ideas
© by Rose Smith
Many couples choose to get married on a particular holiday and St.
Patrick's Day brings a wealth of fun opportunities to incorporate into
an Irish wedding theme. Here are some wedding favor ideas that you can
create for your St. Patrick's Day (or Irish) themed wedding.
WEDDING FAVOR IDEAS
**Lucky Key Chains**
Give your guests a key chain with a lucky
rabbit's foot, a lucky horseshoe or a shamrock.
**Lucky Four Leaf Clover Pot**
Paint a 2" terra cotta pot green.
Decorate along rim with gold paint or small shamrock stickers. Seal the
pot with acrylic spray sealer. Place small piece of florist foam in
bottom. Glue in some Spanish moss on top. Paint a few wooden four-leaf
clovers for each pot and add your names and wedding date to one. Glue
clovers to wire or thin wooden dowels and insert into foam.
**Pot O' Gold**
Buy small cauldrons or buckets at a craft
store. Paint a pewter color if needed. Fill with small gold-foil covered
candies. Wrap in clear cellophane to hold candies in place.
**Irish Music CD or Tape**
Give your guests a selection of your
favorite Irish music.
**Chocolates**
Fill Irish themed chocolate molds (either
on a sucker stick or as individual chocolates) and wrap them in green
cellephane with a green curly ribbon as decoration. Some chocolate mold
ideas are: leprechaun hats, leprechaun figures, shamrocks, Irish derby
hats, lucky horseshoes, rainbows, chocolate coins, and/or a lucky
rabbit's foot.
IRISH SAYINGS FOR WEDDING FAVOR TAGS
Don't forget to add a favor tag to your
wedding favors, which include your names and your wedding date. Here are
a few Irish sayings and blessings to add to your weddng tags:
Wherever you go and whatever you do,
May the luck of the Irish be there with you.
++++++++++++++
May your day be touched
by a bit of Irish luck,
brightened by a song in your heart,
and warmed by the smiles
of the people you love.
++++++++++++++
Wishing you a rainbow
For sunlight after showers—
Miles and miles of Irish smiles
For golden happy hours—
Shamrocks at your doorway
For luck and laughter too,
And a host of friends that never ends
Each day your whole life through!
++++++++++++++
May your heart be light and happy,
May your smile be big and wide,
And may your pockets always have
a coin or two inside!
++++++++++++++
May you have all the happiness
and luck that life can hold—
And at the end of all your rainbows
may you find a pot of gold.
++++++++++++++
May you get all your wishes but one,
So you always have something to strive for.
++++++++++++++
May the love and protection St. Patrick can give
Be yours in abundance as long as you live.
