Wedding favors are traditionally a gift given by the bride and groom to their guests as a souvenir of the day and a thank you for their participation. While there are many traditional wedding favor gifts, they do not seem to have the same appeal as a photograph or a frame for personal photos.
Photo albums and photo frames are very popular wedding favors. They are also very versatile, ranging in price from very inexpensive to affordable. You can find photo frames in silver plate, sterling, acrylic and all sorts of other materials. Your frames can be personalized by engraving them with your names and wedding details, or left un-personalized to allow your guests full flexibility in using them. You can give empty frames, photo albums, or a memory book with a photo of the bride and groom on the cover or in the frame.
Here are some ideas for unique wedding photo favors that you can adapt and use for your own wedding.

Placeholder Photo Clips
Make your wedding favors do double duty by choosing a photo clip that can be used as a placeholder at the reception after the ceremony. There are types of photo clips, ranging in style from the whimsical to the elegantly simple. Suit your wedding theme by choosing clips that match your wedding décor or the theme of your wedding.

Mini Photo Albums
Numerous styles of mini photo albums are available that are designed as table place cards. These mark seats the seats where your guests are going to sit.

Mini Brushed Metal Photo Frames
Mini brushed metal photo frames are another wedding favor that can double as a placeholder or table decoration is a mini photo frame in brushed sterling or pewter. The little frames are designed to hold a standard size place card or a wallet size photo, making them especially popular with moms and grand-moms among your guests.

Photo Coasters
If you want to choose a different photo-related gift, look for a set of frosted glass photo coasters. You can find them in sets of two to four coasters. Each coaster has a window opening in the front to display a favorite photo and keep it safely protected under glass. You can use them as place card holders, or present them in a wrapped box with a personalized ribbon to remind your guests of the wonderful day they shared with you.

Photo Frame Accessories Etiquette
One of the questions you may face is whether to include a photo of the happy couple in the frame or leave the frame empty. The decision is yours, of course, but do consider your guests when deciding. If the guests at your reception are close family and friends, they may appreciate a photo memory of the occasion.

If you are unable to decide which type of gift to purchase for your wedding guests, you may want to look into photo frames. There are several excellent options available such as a personalized frame or a photo book. These gifts can help preserve the memories of your special wedding celebration.
