When it comes to parties, the fun is in the details. How can you make your next event represent who or what you’re celebrating? What things can you customize? While you have a range of options from invitations to custom drinks, to us, your party favors are one of the funnest things to not only put your mark on an event but also make you stand out. 

In this blog, we’re sharing some of our favorite ways of using party favors to help you stand out and leave your guests with a memorable token of a fun time!

Drinks 

If you’re hosting an event for a group that appreciates some tasty spirits or even hosting something like a Vegas-themed birthday, then a drink-themed party favor might be the perfect compliment!

Sangria

Prefer wine over the heavier adult beverages? Whip up your favorite Sangria recipe in a big pitcher, and then pour them into individual, classy, drink bottles like this! Whether you give it to them when they first arrive or as they’re leaving, this will be a polished and refined token of their time with you. !

Mini-Drinks

If you and most of your guests prefer something a little harder, consider putting together some mini-bar party favors! Whether you decide on individual mini- champagne bottles like this or take some extra time to make mini-cocktail favors like this, your guests are sure to appreciate your creativity. 

Hangover Kit

Were you planning on having all the fun at the party? Then a hangover kit might be just the thing your guests need as they’re saying their goodbyes! While you can have your choice of what to include in these goodie bags, you can also consider things like Tylenol, gum, snacks, and any other fun trinkets you think your guest would get a kick out of!

Food

Are you a big foodie? Then food party favors might be an excellent way for your guests to take a little bit of your personality home with them once the party is over. 

Cookies

Cookies tend to be a big hit no matter the age! So whether you decide on a mixture of flavors or stick to big hits like chocolate chip, package these cookies up into adorable bags like this or customized ones like this, and your guests will be singing sweet thank yous all the way home. 

Goodie Bag or Box

For the record, goodie bags are not just for the kids! If you’re big on sweets, consider creating a candy station for your guests before they exit and let their party favor be a goodie bag filled with the sweets of their choice! You can also consider pre-made goodie boxes like this DIY donut box!

More Unique Party Favors

If you’re looking for something that outlasts drinks and food, then here are some more unique party favors that may fit your style!

Candles

Is your party (or vibe) all about getting your guests to relax and breathe for an hour or two? Then personalized candles may be the best party favor to help you encourage them to do that even after they’ve gone. 

Shirts

Whether you’re throwing a birthday party or a bachelorette, t-shirt party favors are a great way to let strangers know you’ve got a reason to celebrate while also allowing your special guests to know that they’re part of the cool crowd. While you can get pre-made shirts on sites like Zazzle or Etsy, you can also get even more DIY by making these shirts yourself!

COVID-19 Party Favors

Want to make sure your guests know you care about them? Then consider having some covid-19 party favors on hand! It’ll not only make your guests know that you’re conscious of keeping them healthy, but you’re also encouraging their safety long after. 

Personalized Masks

If they’re going to wear a mask, why not do it in style? With tons of online shops now selling customized and stylish masks, giving your guests a personalized one that reminds them of the good time at your event is easier than ever!

Personalized Hand Sanitizer 

Encourage your guests to keep their hands clean even while they’re on the go with personalized hand sanitizer party favors! Whether you stock up on mini-bottles from places like Bath & Body Works or Amazon, you can order stickers to place on the front like this! It’s sure to be a party favor that gets its use!

No matter which party favor you choose to go with, remember that making it align with what you’re celebrating is why your guests will remember it! 

If you’re celebrating your birthday, consider what your favorite items are! What things do you enjoy, and how can you incorporate that into giving your guests something special to take home? If you’re not celebrating yourself and maybe someone else, consider what they would enjoy? What would make them feel seen and understood? 

When it comes to the art of celebrating, a good party favor will help make sure your celebration trickles far beyond your goodbyes.
