Silver Wedding Frame Favors

Expert AuthorYou are looking for the perfect wedding favor for your reception. You have seen candy, candles, and soap, but you want something more lasting. You want your guests to have something that will remind them forever of your love. You are intelligent enough to know that they will appreciate wedding frame favors.

Traditional Wedding Frame Favors

A long tradition of wedding frames favors makes them a good choice. They come in many colors and styles, making it easy to match your color scheme as well as your wedding theme. The most elegant wedding frame favors, however, are silver or silverplate. Just large enough to hold a name card, silver wedding frame favors are traditional.

Styles

Examples of silver wedding frame favors (not exhaustive) are:

* Square wedding frame favors 4.5″ x 4.5″ hold a 3″ x 3″ photo of the bride and groom or a placecard.

* Heart wedding frame favors 3.5″ x 3.5″ hold a 2.5″ x 2.5″ photo of the bride and groom or a heart-shaped placecard.

* Rectangular wedding frames favors about 3″ x 4″ hold either a photo or care of about 2″ x 3″ and come in a variety of designs: nostalgic scrolls and hearts, sleek bamboo lines, etc.

Less traditional silver wedding frame favors incorporate less traditional themes. For western weddings, you can order western wedding frame favors, with tiny cowboy boots in one corner, a cowboy hat in another. For a Cinderella wedding, you might want the silver pumpkin wedding frame favors.

Personalized Wedding Frame Favors

Some silver wedding frame favors can be personalized for your guests. Imagine a garden or butterfly-themed wedding. Your tables are decorated with beautiful mini silver wedding frame favors, each adorned with a rhinestone butterfly charm, each holding a photo of the bride and groom. The front of each frame is engraved with your names to make a lasting keepsake.

Irish Wedding Frame Favors

If your wedding has an Irish theme, you might want traditional Irish Shamrock and Claddagh wedding frame favors - with loops to hang them as ornaments. With a photo of the bride and groom inside and your names engraved on the front, you will have a unique lasting memento.

Cost
Silver wedding frame favors, if they are true silver, can be rather expensive. If price is not a factor, they make lovely keepsakes that will be treasured for years. Sterling silver, which contains 7.5 percent copper, is more durable, and less costly. Silverplate will be slightly less in price, and a good way to save money while still enjoying the tradition.

Most “silver” wedding frames favors are not silver, sterling silver, or silverplate, but a metal that has been painted a silver color. They are considered a small part of the wedding’s total cost and not a place to invest heavily.

Silver resin or silver metal frames will likely cost between $1 and $3 each, depending on style and size.

Whatever you choose, though, you really can’t go wrong with nicely adorned silver wedding frame favors.
