Giving out Canadian wedding favors at your wedding is a fabulous way to show a bit of your heritage to your guests!

Maybe one, or both of you, are Canadian. Maybe you met in Canada, or your parents were Canadian. Whatever the case, there are loads of fantastic wedding favors that are representative are our Northern neighbors. Here are a few Canadian ideas to get you started:

Magnificent Maple: Nothing says Canada like maple-themed favors! Consider giving out maple-sugar candies, miniature bottles of syrup from Quebec, or maple-flavored jellies. Your guests will love the sweet gesture.

Canadian Wines: Canada has some fabulous wines, particularly iced wines from Quebec or delicious reds and whites from the Niagra region. If you are moving alcohol across the border, you may need to pay a special duty.

Maple Leaf: You can give your guests soaps or candles that are in the shape of maple leafs to reflect your Canadian heritage.

Jellies & Jams: There are many artisan-jelly companies in Canada that use local berries and fruit to create delicious spreads, sauces, and jams. These can often be ordered in bulk – and you may even be able to include a special, personalized label!

Candles

You can order candles directly from Canada, or order them from a local shop in the Canadian colors, red and white. You may want to include a small poem or writing about why you chose to give a Canadian favor.

Coasters

Coasters are a popular wedding favor, and are available with maple leafs on them for a “falling in love” theme – perfect for a fall wedding!

Canadian Couples

If you’re having a wedding in Canada and want to purchase from a Canadian website to avoid extra costs, such as duties or taxes, head to a Canadian website such as www.weddingfavours.ca. If you don’t purchase from a Canadian website, you may end up paying more than you bargained for – and don’t forget to make sure that they ship to Canada before you fall in love with a specific item!

Destination: Canada

If you are planning a destination wedding to Canada, and would like to give something from that particular region, speak to your wedding planner for some ideas that are made in that particular area. You could also call a local tourist bureau or craft shop, as they might be able to put your in contact with an artist or company who is in the area and can come up with something truly special for your big day. Depending on where you are getting married, there may be some regional delicacies that would make the perfect addition to your big day! If you’re marrying in British Columbia, for example, you might give out some candied salmon from the pacific sea, which is a delicious treat. If, on the other hand, you’re marrying in beautiful Nova Scotia, you might give out lobster-cracking kits or individual herbed soaps.

Choosing to give our Canadian wedding favors at your wedding is a great way to add a unique and personal touch to your wedding favors. Whether you opt for a “Made in Canada” sticker or just choosing something that represents your area of choice, your guests will be thrilled with their distinctive favors.
