Traditionally Jordan Almonds have been the everlasting wedding favor.  Typically, the sugarcoated almonds are presented in sets of three or five.  Thee almonds are said to stand for the bride, groom, and the future baby.  The five almonds symbolize happiness, health, wealth, fertility, and longevity.  The bittersweet candies are rich in both taste and cultural meaning.  They are commonly found in the oldest of cultures, Italian, Middle Eastern, and Greek weddings.

 

If Jordan Almonds aren’t your style, other wedding favors that never go out of style are available to give you more ideas.  The following traditional wedding favors can be incorporated into brand new ideas:

Edible Favors are always a favorite among brides.  They are yummy and easy to do.  Chocolate coins in gold foil are an old edible wedding favor.  Why not give elegant truffles in bon bon favor boxes as a refreshing change to chocolate wedding favors.

A new tradition that has become a classic is the idea of donations to charity.  Instead of an expensive wedding favor, give a dollar amount in the name of every guest to your favorite charity.  Then at the reception, place a little card with a small token stating that a donation has been made in their name.  A small and inexpensive wedding favor is appropriate with this gesture.
