Hi Alyssa, great question! Whether you waited too long or you recently decided to add favors to your list of wedding must-haves, we’ll show you exactly how to solve your party favors issue.
The number one reason why some favors look last minute is when they’re too DIY-intensive and the couple runs out of time putting them together.
Another reason is when you order last minute wedding favors and the shipping deadline seems like plenty, but then they don’t arrive in time and you’re freaking out, trying to put together some makeshift bags of candy to give your guests.
You don’t want wedding favors to look like you put them together at the last minute. This list of favors are all available to ship quickly (at time of publication, so double-check) most with FREE two-day shipping if you have Prime. (Don’t have Prime? Get it free for 30 days here!)

These are cheap and easy wedding favors your family and friends will love to take home.

Last Minute Favors for Weddings
1. Vintage Inspired Skeleton Key Bottle Opener + Pillow Box
This is one of the cute last minute wedding favors that guests will love, as it is two favors in one: one part is a real bottle opener, the other is a pillow box that can be filled with candy. Tags and twine are included to make assembly easy. The tag with these favors looks cute: it says, “Thank you for sharing our special day”. Postive ratings, nice quality. By Evanto. Buy here.
2. Bulk Favor Fans
What makes a nice last minute wedding favor, particularly when it’s hot and humid outside? Fans! But not those cheap paper fans that rip and break. Instead, go with a higher quality — yes inexpensive wedding favors — thanks to these sandalwood fans your guests will love. These fans ship fast and the quality is amazing. To top it off, you can add a ribbon and a tag if you’d like, but you don’t have to… these are lovely as-is. Use them as favors at your wedding ceremony in a basket for guests to take and cool themselves off, or place at each setting for the reception for a nice take-home gift. You won’t find last minute wedding favors cheap as these… they’re $0.77 each, so you’re spending less than a $1 per favor. Nice! Buy here.
3. Heart Shaped Bottle Stopper Favors
If you’re planning a wine themed wedding, getting married in a vineyard, enjoy wine, or simply need last minute wedding favors that are not junk, you’ve found them in these bottle stoppers. Plus, they come with everything you need to assemble last minute diy wedding favors: the stoppers, the favor bags, and tags. Cute! In addition, if your budget allows, you can include a bottle of wine with each, perhaps for your wedding welcome bags. (You can buy wine in bulk here.) Highly rated. Shop here.

5. Succulent Favors in Bulk
One of my all-time favorite last minute wedding favors? You wouldn’t believe you can get these shipped so fast, but it’s true. Succulents! Succulent plants make excellent wedding favors or creative bridal shower favors. These are one of the top-rated succulent plants on the market and they’re sold in bulk. You’ll spend less than $2 per plant, which is pretty amazing. As-is, these cute plants are ready for giving as party favors but you can dress them up a bit with these picks, which I love. Buy the plants here.
To add picks to them, try these from Parbee. You can buy here cheap.
6. DIY Rustic Wedding Favors
Not all favor boxes are equal! So, when you find last minute wedding favors that are easy to put together, like these boxes that are great quality and affordable candies to go inside, you jump at the opportunity to share them! These “love” favor boxes are easy to assemble and will look lovely at your wedding reception. If you’d like, add these mints to the inside of the boxes for a cheap candy idea. Or, choose from any candy you’d like (make sure they’re wrapped individually!)
Here are the mints to go inside, if you wish:
7. Compass Favors
Last but not least, if you’re planning a destination wedding or travel themed wedding, don’t wait to buy these adorable compass favors. They include the compass, the tags, and the twine, so you’ll have no problem even if these are last minute wedding favors. These are a great idea for traveling guests, too, because they fit easily in luggage, so they’re perfect for travel. You can buy here at a huge discount.
