Celebrity Wedding Favors

Posted by kim on January 20, 2010

I love going to weddings where they hand out take home gifts for the guests to remember the day by. Since I live in hickville (aka Nebraska), the majority of wedding favors given out around here seem to be can koozies with the saying, “To have and to hold, and to keep your beer cold” along with the bride and groom’s names and wedding date. Cheesy, I know.

The Celebrity Bridal Guide lists various Wedding Favors that celebrities have handed out at their weddings.  Here are some of my favorite picks:

  • Eva Longoria and Tony Parker handed out Van Cleef and Arpels Sweet Alhambra bracelets to all the female guests. Sweeeeeeeet!
  • Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz passed out sugar cookies with the words “Eat Me” on them. Yum!
  • Avril Lavigne and Deryck Whibley had personalized guitar picks made with the words “Deryck picked Avril” and “Avril picked Deryck”.  Ahhhh.
  • Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban gave out Tiffany & Company desk clocks that were inscribed with the phrase “A Moment in Time” with the wedding date and their names. Niiiiiice!

My cousin handed out the small one-serving boxes of Lucky Charms cereal wrapped up at her wedding, which was definitely a unique and memorable gift idea.  Hopefully someday I’ll get remarried and have the opportunity to come up with some cool idea as well!
