Hi, lovelies! Emma here and it is a beautiful, sunny day, there’s a new Ask Emmaline question to share, and I have a piping hot cup of coffee by my side. What a perfect combination, I say! :) Bride-to-be, Vanessa, wants to know what to give as wedding favors for kids at her wedding. She writes,
“Hi Emmaline Bride! We are having a few kids at our wedding (my nieces and nephews, along with a few of my friends’ kids) and they are all under 10 years old. I am excited to see them dancing and having fun at the wedding but I’m wondering if I should buy kids wedding favors. Do you have any tips on what I should get? I’m giving wine glasses as favors for adults, so I definitely need something kid-friendly for the little ones. Thanks for your help!”
Hi Vanessa! Great question and, p.s. I love inviting kids to weddings! They love to dance. We did some digging on the topic and the best answer is always… candy! Kids love candy, obvious and yet, oh-so-true. And if you have a little candy around, you’ll make those kiddos pretty happy. Plus, add a few coloring or coloring activity sets and you’ll pretty much win the bride of the year. Kids will be content keeping themselves entertained coloring, working on activity books, and enjoying candy provided by you, especially during toasts when parents are trying to keep their kids quiet so everyone can hear the speeches. :) So, in addition to being a cool bride to the kids, your adult friends with kids will also thank you for the extra thought that went into giving wedding candy bags and/or coloring books to the kids. And sometimes kids get super-hungry and dinner takes a while, so candy is also a great “extra” to have around.
We found a bunch of cute pre-made kids wedding favors by LilLoveBugsEvents and we think they’ll fit in perfectly. Take a look!
