Giving favors to guests at the end of your big night is one of those wedding traditions that likely isn't going anywhere any time soon. Wedding favors are a sweet way to say "thank you" to guests for being part of such a special moment in your life, and choosing the right gift doesn't have to be a chore.

One way to make your wedding favors feel more unique and personalized is to make them seasonally appropriate. For example, if you're having a winter wedding, then have winter wedding favors that fit with the theme and weather. There are so many cute favor options for a cold-weather wedding. You can go the classic route and do something sweet, like a snowflake ornament or a personalized mug (you can never go wrong with their option!). Edible favors are always fun, and one favorite is hot cocoa mixes. And then there are some more out-of-the-box ideas, like fire starters or even cozy socks.

Here are some of our favorite winter wedding favors you can buy now for your big day.

AdaMarkt Pashminas
