Who doesn't love a spring wedding? The grass is turning green, flowers are starting to bloom, and warmth is in the air. If you've chosen a wedding date in late March, April, May, or early June, it's likely because something about this season speaks to you, so making big-day decisions with seasonality at the forefront will only further personalize your ceremony and reception. While most of your decisions will revolve around springy color palettes and choosing in-season flowers and food, we encourage you to also think about the impact small details can have. Your wedding favors are the perfect example.

While you're in no way required to give out wedding favors, gifting your guests with a small token at the end of the night is a nice way to thank them for being part of the festivities. And, for a spring wedding, choosing a seasonal favor is an easy way to further emphasize the theme of the celebration. Some of our favorite ideas? Fresh flowers, pastel-colored treats, and seasonal herbs and spices.

Ahead, we're sharing 24 spring wedding favor ideas we love. Let these creative, beautiful options inspire you as your choose your own gift for guests.

Package In-Season Fruit

We love wedding favors that fall into one of two categories: They should either be practical (meaning that guests can actually use them after the wedding) or edible. Fresh, in-season fruit, like the mini strawberry baskets handed out at this southern California wedding, fit the bill. Feel free to treat your guests to any type of in-season produce you love best.

Go With Seed Paper

Is there a favor more appropriate for spring than eco-friendly seed paper? Give every guest a little note thanking them for the attendance; once they're home, they can plant the paper straight into the ground and think back to your wedding every time they bloom. Choose seed paper that blooms into your favorite flowers or pick a variety that's used extensively throughout your wedding décor.

At this wedding, guests took home cups with the couple's last name inspired by the Masters Golf tournament, which takes place each April.

Select Decorative Pressed Flowers

Have your spring wedding favors pull double duty by choosing a token that can also stand in as a pretty escort card. At this wedding, pressed flowers in frames featured guests' seating assignments, but the names and table numbers can easily be wiped off at the end of the night so that the frames can be used as home décor. Fill frames with your favorite seasonal blooms or a mix of flowers that complement your celebration's overarching color palette.

Pack Up Popcorn and Flavorings

Do you have a major sweet tooth? Then a candy wedding favor is the way to go. Just about any type of candy can work for the season if you're creative with your choices. At this New York wedding, the couple treated guests to a confectionary bar where they could pick and choose their favorite sweets to take home. To set up a similar display at your own nuptials this spring, select treats in flavors that nod to the season.

Bottle Up Sunny Limoncello

Though there are plenty of colors that speak to the spring season, we think yellow is arguably the most apt: The sun is shining and flowers like daffodils and tulips are beginning to pop. A yellow favor, like a sunny bottle of limoncello, feels just right for a springtime celebration.

The best wedding favors always have a purpose after the big day, and these cute baseball hats—which were given out during an outdoor celebration in Michigan—certainly fit the bill. If you want to do something similar, choose a a neutral color (this blue is a great choice!) that everyone will like and avoid branding that includes your names or wedding date.

Gift Jars of Jam

If you want to send everyone home with a favor they'll actually use, a little jar of jam is a winner. To make yours appropriate for the season, choose a blend of springtime fruits or make like the couple at this rooftop wedding in Illinois and finish the jar off with a springy ribbon.

Yes, wine makes for a great favor any season of the year, but we think it's especially appropriate in spring. Treat guests to a bottle of your favorite seasonal varietal—rosé feels just right!—that they can enjoy after the party.

For their Idaho wedding, one couple created a branding station where guests could customize their own hats. If budget allows, a customizable experience like this is bound to be appreciated, but a simple hat station where guests can pick something up to shield them from the springtime sun is always appreciated.

A candle is a classic wedding favor, and you can easily make yours spring-ready by choosing a scent that speaks to the season. Consider floral notes like lilac, lily of the valley, or hyacinth. At this California wedding, the couple chose blue labels as their finishing touch, but you can select a hue that reminds guests of the time of year.

If you're hosting a destination wedding, a little bag of travel essentials is one of the most thoughtful favors you can give. At this wedding in Portugal, the couple sent guests home with the must-haves they'd need after the wedding, including candy and hydration packs. For a springtime wedding, choose a color palette that speaks to the season.
