Using Tins for your Wedding Favors
By using aluminum tins to present your wedding favors, you are not only providing some stylish packaging but some which can be used again long after the wedding favors themselves have expired.
Read on to find out why these small tins are a great alternative to traditional card wedding favor boxes.
A Question of Style & Practicality
There is no doubt that a small metal tin is going to be more durable than a card box. Placing your wedding favors in tins is more likely to ensure that your guests get them home in one piece, rather than using flimsy card boxes which can get squashed and battered over the course of the reception.
Tins also offer a better container for small items such as seeds and because of the tight seal on the lid perishable items such as chocolates or cookies should stay fresher for longer, meaning you can make up your wedding favors slightly earlier than if you were packaging them by other means. This is also good news for those who are having a destination wedding as they will be able to take the favors with them without fear of them being damaged en-route.
Tins also offer a more contemporary cum modern style to your wedding and are a popular choice if you want to steer away from the traditional wedding look of frills and bows.
Here are some of the types of wedding favors particularly suited to tin packaging:
- Candles – you will find candles already made in tins and available in a variety of sizes and scents.
- Plant seeds – a favor so tiny needs a suitable container to keep them in and tins provide the perfect solution. Tins also help to keep them moisture free and fresh, it also gives your guests somewhere practical to store them until they are ready to be planted.
- Candies – small candies can be presented in tins to great effect and look great when you mix the colors and use tins with clear lids.
- Mints – the original occupants of tins, you will find mint tins in many shapes and sizes.
- Chocolates – putting chocolates in tins will certainly help to keep them fresher and can avoid things like melting and getting squashed, but choose your chocolates carefully as tins large enough for luxurious truffles may be too expensive to be viable.
- Soaps – small scented soaps would also suit tins or choose one soap large enough to fill your tin of choice.
- Bath flakes/granules – these are well suited to being presented in tins as they won’t get stuck together or squashed in the packaging which can leave a rather sticky mess behind!
As you can see tins provide the ideal packaging solution for a range of wedding favors. Get some personalized stickers printed to place on the top as well as a finishing touch. You will many of the favor stores provide this service and can give you a range of design options for the size and shape of tin you are using.
