The little details of a wedding are often what make the celebration stand out for guests. If you're trying to impress the people you're inviting, one fun way to do so is to pick out the perfect wedding favors. Since guests are grabbing these on their way out the door, favors are their last impression of your wedding and all the hard work you did, so it's not a bad idea to put some thought into them.
If you're getting married during the spring, you can pick inspired wedding favors that fit right in with the season and go with the overall theme of your big night. When you think about spring, flowers are probably some of the first things that come to mind, and there are plenty of floral wedding favor options out there. You can give away dried seeds that encourage guests to get planting, or you can opt for floral edible desserts as a sweet treat.
For wedding favors guests will love, focus on finding something that is functional but also fun. The below options are all favors that people can actually use so that they don't just sit in a corner and collect dust. Here are our favorite spring wedding favors.
Not only are these pastel-colored lollipops delicious, they're also really beautiful to look at. In flavors like lavender-lemongrass and strawberry-basil, they contain embedded seeds. You can eat them, then plant the whole stick (which also has seeds in it) to grow herbs and flowers.
If you want to do something with plants but want to avoid flowers (which might feel cliche), then opt for these olive tree favors. They look so cute in the tiny burlap bags, and they can be used as décor after the wedding.
It's hard to go wrong with edible favors, since they make a great snack for people as they walk out the door. The only problem with these floral-inspired cookies is that they're almost too pretty to bite into.
Spring is the perfect time for a picnic, so these mini picnic baskets fit right in with the season. Fill them with small candies or a packet of lemonade mix to complete the vibe.
Mini succulents are a great favor to give out because they're less delicate than flowers and much more low maintenance. In these little bags, they're ready to go at the door.
Chocolate and coffee goes perfect together, so why not pair them for a cute wedding favor box? This contains a small bag of coffee and chocolates shaped like pebbles. Plus, it is packaged beautifully.
Drink koozies might not be the most unique favor idea in the world, but that doesn't mean they aren't useful! These, in gorgeous terracotta shades, feature floral images that fit right in with a spring wedding.

Trust us: no one is going to complain about leaving a wedding holding a package of mini Baked By Melissa cupcakes. Truly delicious and very adorable, these colorful cupcakes will be a huge hit.
Use a cute play on words ("meant to bee") on your favors for maximum Instagrammable aesthetics. These little jars of honey will definitely get used by guests and they'll make a nice display.
These small mason jars feature a vintage-inspired embossed floral design that really makes them stand out and feel extra special. Fill them with whatever you want, whether that's fancy floral bath salts or candies.
These colorful floral matchboxes are definitely the prettiest ones any of your guests will ever own. You can get them personalized with your initials as well.
This favor combines combines design with an edible favor, which is the best route to take. Chocolates are wrapped in dried florals, and you can personalize the small tins.
Peas are a spring vegetable, making this set of salt and pepper shakers a very cute favor option for your seasonal wedding. We love the use of the "two peas in a pod" statement here for a play on your new marriage.
These eco-friendly seed sticks work as both a pencil and a plant—once they're too short to write with anymore, you stick them in a planter with some dirt and water, and let them grow. They're easy to use, and the attached cards can be totally personalized for your own sweet message to guests.
Leave your guests with something sweet to munch on as they head home after your wedding. Small boxes of Tate's chocolate chip cookies are sure to be a huge hit.
Opt for something different with these small ring dishes made out of painted oyster shells. They'll make for a gorgeous display, and they're perfect for a bohemian wedding style.

Spring is that tricky time of year when the weather can go from warm and sunny to chilly and cool the second the sun goes down. Set guests up with some layers with these pastel colored pashminas, which look lovely when draped over each chair.
Spring is the season of gardening, which is exactly why these mini watering cans are an ideal wedding favor. Add some dried flowers or herbs for pops of color, or stuff them with candy (or even floral lollipops).
Combine an edible favor with something more floral with these elegant and tiny jars of loose leaf teas. They look so pretty and can be used for a delicious cup of tea when guests are ready to relax.
We love the unique feel of these mini bottles of olive oil as a favor. Guests are pretty much guaranteed to get a lot of use out of them, and they'll look so nice when left at each seat.

A fun way to incorporate some bright pops of color into your wedding is with these mini vases. They're colorful and come in a range of different shades, and you can put some dried flowers in each one as a thoughtful favor.
These aesthetically pleasing tubes of bath salts provide just enough scented floral-infused salts for one luxurious bath. They're nice to look at, you can add a customized sticker, and they're made of all organic ingredients.
Keep things simple and delicious with this favor option: small organza bags filled with chocolate truffles. These Lindt truffles are some of the best out there and the pink wrapping is perfect for spring.
These colorful bowls are gorgeous and make for a unique favor idea. They'll add some color to your reception and the designs make them ideal for a more eclectic wedding.
Skip the played out candle favor idea and opt for reed diffusers instead. They still give off an amazing scent, and the small glass jars double as home decor.
