A very small yet crucial thing you ought to plan for your wedding is the wedding return gift. Something yours guests can remember your wedding by. It may be something small but can surely leave an impact. You’ve got to plan everything from the gift items to the packaging and even where to place them. Make sure you even have small tags with your wedding hashtags on them. Of course, the event you plan to hand out the favours in is a big factor in deciding the favours themselves. These return gift ideas for weddings are sure to help you pick out some different and quirky things that would lead to people always remembering your wedding. 

Here are some great ideas to help you decide on the perfect wedding return gift. 

A Bangle Stand

A classic, bangles are the perfect return gifts for a Mehendi function. You could set up a separate stall where the guests could pick whichever ones they like. It definitely does not have to be limited to bangles; you could add a lot of other tidbits too. Add some flower jewellery, bindis, dupattas, jutties and/or other shringar items. It would surely be fun for the guests to amp up their looks in the middle of the event. 

Embroidered Clutches for Wedding Return Gift

Some pretty embroidered clutches are also a very good idea to keep on your Mehendi/Haldi function. You could opt for colours that match the theme of your event. Either go for small coin sized purses or else proper slings with coloured embroidery. Something like this you can easily source from Janpath. Incorporate coloured threads, mirror work or even some hand painted graphics. However, if you want to go minimal then opt for some sequin or thread work along the edges only. You could even etch on the bride and groom initials onto them to personalise the return gifts for marriage. However, if you want it to be functional for the guests then add a small cute printed letter inside the clutch. 

A Boxful of Munchies

Nowadays, there are a lot of unique and different snacks out there in the market. From dried sugar fruits to interesting flavours of popcorns and what not. Similarly you can have a box of such delectables curated. There’s so much you can do. You could go for Macarons and make them interesting by going for some desi flavours with them. Try pieces of candied apples and other fruits. You could even try small cotton candies and so much that you can experiment with. If you are a tea lover, hunt for some unique leaves, create a tea box and add a small quirky kettle if your budget allows. These are the easiest and perfect wedding return gifts for relatives.

Cute Planters

If you are all about minimalism and cute, thoughtful gifts then there’s nothing better for a wedding return gift than a cute little planter. The pot could have your initials engraved too! Not only that, succulents like these are very low maintenance, so your guests don’t have to worry too much about looking after them either. Another super cute thing you could go for are terrariums. They are extremely beautiful and the perfect minimal gift too! You could even attach tags with cute messages along the planters. Something like this people are sure to remember and treasure.

Fans & Umbrellas

Now if you wish to go for something colourful then set up a stall with colourful hand fans and umbrellas. You can find extremely beautiful embroidered umbrellas very easily too. Not only can the guests take them home and make good use of them, but they can be used on the event itself to get beautiful pictures as well. This definitely makes for a useful gift and can be kept for your Haldi ceremony. 

Candles for Wedding Return Gift

Thinking of doing something simple yet classy? Then scented candles are the way to go! Who doesn’t love themselves some fancy candles? Super functional and meaningful candles are the perfect return gift ideas for wedding reception. The glass bottles in which the candles come can again have your initials or some pretty graphics. Use a rope to tie up around the candle and it sure would make for a pretty wedding favour.

Mehendi Cookies

The perfect gift for the Mehendi ceremony, this sure is something new and unique. Not only are you giving your guests something delicious but also something that is pretty and unique. And what better way to commemorate your mehendi by etching up the designs on the cookies. We love that the cookies have been baked in a paisley shape to keep the indianness intact. Of course you have to incorporate some fun bright colours, since it’s a return gift for your mehendi. 

Hangover Kits

Fun and witty wedding gifts for friends, these can be kept on the day of your cocktail. There’s definitely no better occasion for a gift like this. If you are planning to have a big bar on your cocktail then you ought to have these too. Not only will your relatives and friends be thankful that you did this but also fall in love with the idea.
