What are some appreciated wedding favors?
Hello, this is Haruno Tsuzaki from Marry*
To all the brides-to-be, what were the wedding favors you received at weddings you've attended that made you happy??
If you've participated in several weddings, you probably have thoughts like,
"This was wonderful!" "This was just okay." "This was disappointing....".
After all, wedding favors are something that come with excitement and surprise, making them very enjoyable.
While opinions from friends and family are good, opinions from the internet can also be helpful.
Now, it's your turn to choose gifts as the bride.
The more weddings you attend, the more you will likely struggle with your choice.
In such cases, it's good to listen to various people's opinions*
While friends' opinions are valuable, anonymous reviews on the internet often provide candid and straightforward comments, which can be interesting.
From the various opinions I’ve seen on Twitter and Yahoo Answers, I’ve picked out some wedding favors that many have said, "This made me happy!"♩
Cheers to the internet community\(^o^)/ Happy wedding favor ① Catalog Gifts
Firstly, despite personal preferences, the number of people who absolutely loved catalog gifts was overwhelmingly large.
They are easy to take home and allow people to choose items they like, so they are very popular.
Many comments expressed satisfaction with the ability to choose food items like meat and fish even if they didn't find something desirable.
While some comments mentioned that giving catalog gifts feels "thoughtless" or gives a "careless image," that was just a small fraction.
The overwhelmingly positive feedback on catalog gifts far surpassed any negative comments.
Especially, it seems that choosing upscale brands like Barneys New York or Actus rather than regular catalog options makes people even happier.
Recently, experience-based catalog gifts seem to be gaining popularity as well♡

Cheers to the internet community\(^o^)/ Happy wedding favor ② Tiffany Items
Among young guests around the age of 26, Tiffany tableware was very popular*
Of course, the tableware itself is appreciated, but the exciting point seems to be the Tiffany Blue bags and boxes♡
Indeed, if the favor bag is Tiffany, it does bring a sense of pride when taking it home♩
However, simpler and more practical designs tend to be more popular than the classic "THE Tiffany" blue with white ribbon series.
Actually, Tiffany offers many designs that are simple, functional, and less recognizable as Tiffany, which I highly recommend*
Cheers to the internet community\(^o^)/ Happy wedding favor ③ Baccarat Glasses
Even among those who don't drink alcohol, there were many posts saying they would be happy to receive Baccarat glasses.
Just like Tiffany, it seems many people enjoy receiving items from renowned brands.
While not exactly Baccarat, gorgeous Edo Kiriko glasses have also gained popularity.
Even those who don’t drink alcohol can feel elegant drinking juice or vinegar drinks from these glasses♩
Cheers to the internet community\(^o^)/ Happy wedding favor ④ Imabari Towels
A classic for appreciated gifts, Imabari towels received a lot of positive comments as well.
The reason for Imabari towels' popularity is simply that they are "not unnecessary."
Many comments mentioned preferring high-quality, lightweight Imabari towels that can definitely be used over receiving something useless... This reflects a somewhat more passive than active reason, but in any case, what matters most is that people are happy!!
Imabari towels can be purchased in various brands, so being able to choose from different patterns is also delightful♡
Cheers to the internet community\(^o^)/ Happy wedding favor ⑤ Wedgwood Plates
Wedgwood plates were also praised for being easy to use.
Especially, simpler designs rather than patterned ones like Wild Strawberry are more favorable.
The Festivity series with color variations like white, light blue, and pink is a classic favorite.
However, the most appreciated is definitely simple white plates that can be used for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
It seems that simpler options are generally favored.
What else???
Other wedding favors that were considered delightful included the following:
☑Special curry or jam from the wedding venue's hotel
☑Personalized lip balms or chopsticks with each guest's name
☑Olive oil or dressing sets
☑Mikimoto or Swarovski pens
☑Lush soap assortments
☑Meat tickets or organic vegetable vouchers
and more.
Use candid opinions as a reference for selecting wedding favors***
Choosing wedding favors is fun but can be quite stressful!
Especially when there are options to consider for different guests.
Asking close friends is good, but listening to opinions from the internet can lead to surprisingly enjoyable discoveries.
From what I've observed, it seems about one in five people favors catalog gifts. Certainly, I also love catalog gifts, so receiving one would be a delight!!
The period of being a bride-to-be can be overwhelming with decisions to make, but I hope you find the perfect wedding favors you are satisfied with**
