Without wedding favors, a wedding is incomplete. Wedding favors are small gifts which are given as an expression of gratitude to the people who come as guests in the wedding ceremony or reception.
It is an age old tradition which was started by the Europeans and later on it was spread all over the world. However, this practice or tradition whatever you may call it, is now very popular in the United States of America and Canada. In the olden times, the most popular wedding favor was sugar cubes which were usually packed in boxes made of porcelain and well carved crystals.
However, some people also gifted sugar cubes in boxes made of precious gems and stones. Now almonds are more popular than other gifts from the past, traditionally five almonds are given as a wedding favor which can be wrapped in a silk clot or any elegant fabric. This way of giving the gift represents happiness, wealth, health,
fertility and longevity. But now with the change in times people expect sweet and adorable wedding favors rather than elegant and exquisite gifts.
