Stuck on boring wedding favors? Skip the cheesy, run-of-the-mill options you’ve seen a million times before and consider one of these creative, guy-friendly wedding favors for your guests instead. (Hint: The bride will love these ideas, too.)

Custom brew

Make a killer homebrew or have a favorite local beer? Send guests home with a bottle with a personalized tag. These are great to tuck into welcome bags for guests at the hotel as well.

Liquor minis

Consider sending your guests home with a taste of your signature blend of liquor. Consider adding personalized tags to your bottles, including a mixer like cola, or pairing them with a cigar.

Custom shot glasses

Give guests a favor they’ll actually use, like a personalized shot glass — both for toasting with at the wedding and to take home as a keepsake of the big day.

Sunglasses

A great favor for outdoor weddings, offer guests a pair of cheap sunglasses to keep them comfortable on the bright wedding day and all summer long.

BBQ sauce or rub

For barbeque lovers or grill masters, offer a sample of your own homemade spice rub or a favorite locally-sourced BBQ rub or sauce.

Sweet treats

Share some of the bride’s and groom’s favorite candies or other sweet treats by setting up a treat bar, along with take-home bags, so guests can help themselves.

Hot sauce

Are you a devoted hot sauce fanatic? Give guests a taste of your favorite (DIY or store-bought) fiery special sauce to take home.

Wedding soundtracks

If you’re a musician or like to play DJ, give your guests a taste of some of your favorite music or a selection of favorite songs played at your wedding reception.
