Flower Seed Wedding Favors

Choosing to hand out flower seed wedding favors is a lovely idea and very cost effective as well. You can present your wedding guests with wedding flower seeds for annual flowers, perennials, trees, shrubs, or even houseplants. The options are practically limitless.

Should you be having a theme that incorporates flowers, such as a daisy flower wedding, this makes choosing flower seed packets pretty easy. A nice idea would be to determine how many different varieties of a particular flower there is that you could hand out as favors, rather than using all of the same color or type.

For a wedding that isn't focused on flowers as an actual theme, you could package your chosen seed types in themed containers as an alternative, and still keep to your chosen theme.

• Should you be having a beach/seashore wedding, choose flowers and shrub seeds that would normally grow near an ocean. Bayberry (bush), Sweet Pea (vine), or Rosemary (herb) are all good choices. Use miniature treasure chests, large sea shells, or beach themed favor bags or boxes as containers for your flower seed wedding favors.

• A butterfly wedding theme should obviously contain seed packets that target flowers which attract butterflies. Some choices are Aster Astoria Mix, yellow Coneflowers, Marigolds, Petunias, Salvia, Yarrow, and Zinnias.
  
  
• Coneflower (Mexican Hat), Desert Baileya (Desert Marigold) or Purple Sage bushes are ideal for a Western theme wedding. Place the wedding flower seeds in miniature cowboy hats or boots, small colorful southwestern clay pots, or wrapped in gingham fabric.
  
  
• Although roses seem to be the first choice for a Valentine's Day, sweetheart or romantic theme, there are several other flower choices that are just as romantic. Try using forget-me-nots, orchids, Amaranth (Globe), Bell Flower or Sunflower. These are just a few of the flowers that are associated with meanings of romance, which you can include on your thank-you favor tags.
  
  
• Marriage celebrations that are based on a wedding color theme can also use flower seed wedding favors that will grow beautiful blooms featuring a particular color combination. For example, if you choose to have a white and black themed wedding, use seeds that bloom as a pure white flower and enclose them in black velvet material bags. Purple and gold makes a stunning color combination and flower seeds such as violets, purple irises, or purple lilacs placed in gold-toned favor boxes would be ideal as favors.
  
  
• Victorians relied very much on the "meanings" of flowers. For a Victorian themed wedding choose the more popular varities of the era such as roses, lilies, gardenias, stephanotis sprigs, pansies, hyacinths, baby's breath and orange blossoms. Package them in lace or paper doily cones, wrap in old-fashioned paper, or place in them antique style bottles.
