Another thing to remember is to also have a pretty table set up where you set the favours, the guests should feel welcome and happy seeing the gifts. Now moving on to the actual favours.

Here are some great ideas for reception Return gifts.

Candles as Reception Return Gifts

First on the list of return gift ideas are candles. Who doesn’t love some beautifully scented candles? Everyone does! Someone in the guests’ family sure would have an affinity for them. They are the perfect, cute yet elegant gits suitable for the reception. If one single candle seems less to you, then you could gift them a whole set. Of course, nice packaging is key here. You could incorporate your wedding hashtags or logos on the packaging as well as the candle as well. There’s a lot of scope for branding on candle bottles. The best part is you can play around with variety, there can be candles with varied smells and flavours, making each gift unique. 

Pretty Plants & Succulents

One of the most popular return gift for reception has to be these cute plants and succulents. There’s nothing more meaningful and pretty than these lovely succulents. No, they are actually not a lot of responsibility even. They are super easy to manage and keep alive and definitely fill the receiver with hope and happiness. It sure is a quirky, modern and significant gift you can give to your guest. At least 70-80% of the people do like plants, so it truly is a safe bet. There are a whole lot of pretty succulents or low maintenance plants in the market for you to choose from. You could of course look for a cute and quirky pot for them to go in too. Feel free to add your initials to the pot!

Well Packaged Dry Fruits

Dry fruits have always been one of the top marriage return gifts, in our tradition. While it may seem boring and all, it definitely is a safe and good choice. You can amp it up by utilising some unique, minimalistic and modern packaging. Just doing away with the traditional packaging can make the return gift seem a lot more chic and perfect. Again, adding initials and hashtags is something you can do on the bottles of these. You could also very well opt for a trail mix instead to make it a tad bit more interesting as well as healthy.

Bar Sets for Wedding Return Gifts

If you are looking for something suave yet fun for your return gifts for wedding reception then a good bar set works. The bar set can have your usual bar tools or even a bottle of wine or champagne. It all depends on where your budget falls. It’s a rather elegant and different idea for a return gift for your guests. Of course, you have to consider the fact if all your guests drink or not. If there are some who don’t you could have something non-alcoholic packaged for them.

Pretty Fragrance Kits

Another really good option can be fragrance kits. Everyone loves their homes smelling good and fragrance kits are definitely functional and elegant. Very suitable as favours for wedding receptions really! The kit can have a diffuser, incense sticks, a good smelling candle, soaps etc. You could consider some good relaxing smells and people would surely appreciate the gift. Go for a smell that is resonant with you as a couple and of course do not forget the branding.

Tea Flavours and Kits

Everyone loves tea! Especially in India. There are also a whole lot of tea connoisseurs who love experimenting and playing around with different kinds of teas. Moreover, there’s no dearth of different kinds of tea in the market so this is definitely something you can do. You can create kits with different flavoured teas, exotic even. You could add a small cute little stainer even, maybe some honey, small cups etc. It all comes down to how big or small you wish the kit to be.

Pamper Kits

Another unique and elegant yet super useful return gift for wedding guests you can go for is a pamper kit. Think tea lights, scented candles, body butter, scrubs, face masks and so much more. And no, it definitely is not a gift suitable only for women. You can very well and very easily create a lovely gender neutral pamper kit. There’s a lot you can find in the market and you don’t even have to go look for special packaging. A lot of the places which sell skincare tend to have some great packaging options too! No doubt, this really is a great and unique gifting idea.
