Since we want the feel of a garden wedding (even at the reception!), one of the favors Todd and I have been considering are flower seed packets. There are a staggering variety of different styles of packet design, personalization, types of flowers and mixes, and creative DIY seed packet projects.
Below are a few of them.
Beautiful, hand-watercolored-looking packets which may be attached to placecards (what a great two-in-one that adds interest to the presentation!). The placecards may be clear and adorned with ribbons (can you tell I love ribbons and bows?!) or solid, with a line to write each guest's table on.
Small wax bags, hole-punched and threaded with personalized ribbon. The packets are filled with a thoughtful message and lavender seeds.
There are several commercial nurseries that offer this type of personalized seed packet. Basically, one can order any of a number of flowers or flower mixes (forget-me-knots; wildflower mixes; bouquet mixes; poppies) and then ask the nursery to print the couple's names and wedding date above and below the photo of the flowers on the front of the packet. This is a quick, neat, and affordable option.
