What kind of favor do you give at a destination wedding? You want the guest to be reminded of the wonderful time they had at your wedding in some far off location, but you also want to show your appreciation to them for traveling so far. A shot glass from the airport gift shop isn\u2019t going to cut it. Here are some fun suggestions:BI-LINGUAL BOOKSIf you\u2019re getting married in a place where English isn\u2019t necessarily the primary language, try finding a bilingual book, like this volume of Love Poems by Pablo Neruda\u2014each poem is in Spanish and English. Wrap a pretty bow on it, and you have a sweet gift for your guests. Available on amazon.com for $9.56.\u00a0SOMETHING THE PLACE IS KNOWN FOREvery place in the world has something famous about them, whether it\u2019s a food or textile. For instance, if you\u2019re having a ceremony in Ireland, it may be a nice touch to give Irish linen handkerchiefs, like ones from Thomas Ferguson’s Irish Linen. If textiles aren\u2019t your thing, try a local treat like a popular jam from your location\u2019s best bakery or a popular local brew. Available at fergusonirishlinen.com for $5.95.\u00a0A PRACTICAL GIFTIf you really want your guests to remember your ceremony forever, then give them something they can use year round. If you\u2019re having a beach ceremony, why not try these beach theme glass coasters ? Available at americanbridal.com for $1.72 each.\u00a0Photo: livluna.com.adslot-overlay {position: absolute; font-family: arial, sans-serif; background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.65); border: 2px solid rgba(0,0,0,0.65); color: white !important; margin: 0; z-index: 2147483647; text-decoration: none; box-sizing: border-box; text-align: left;}.adslot-overlay-iframed {top: 0; left: 0; right: 0; bottom: 0;}.slotname {position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; right: 0; font-size: 13px; font-weight: bold; padding: 3px 0 3px 6px; vertical-align: middle; background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.45); text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap; overflow: hidden;}.slotname span {text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-transform: capitalize;}.revenue {position: absolute; bottom: 0; left: 0; right: 0; font-size: 11px; padding: 3px 0 3px 6px; vertial-align: middle; text-align: left; background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.45); font-weight: bold; text-overflow: ellipsis; overflow: hidden; white-space: nowrap;}.revenue .name {color: #ccc;}.revenue .horizontal .metric {display: inline-block; padding-right: 1.5em;}.revenue .horizontal .name {padding-right: 0.5em;}.revenue .vertical .metric {display: block; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0.5em;}.revenue .vertical .name, .revenue .vertical .value {display: block;}.revenue .square .metric, .revenue .button .metric {display: table-row;}.revenue .square .metric {line-height: 1.5em;}.revenue .square .name, .revenue .square .value, .revenue .button .value {display: table-cell;}.revenue .square .name {padding-right: 1.5em;}.revenue .button .name {display: block; margin-right: 0.5em; width: 1em; overflow: hidden; text-overflow: clip;}.revenue .button .name:first-letter {margin-right: 1.5em;}a.adslot-overlay:hover {border: 2px solid rgba(58,106,173,0.9);}a.adslot-overlay:hover .slotname {border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(81,132,210,0.9); background-color: rgba(58,106,173,0.9);}a.adslot-overlay:hover .revenue {border-top: 1px solid rgba(81,132,210,0.9); background-color: rgba(58,106,173,0.9);}div.adslot-overlay:hover {cursor: not-allowed; border: 2px solid rgba(64,64,64,0.9);}div.adslot-overlay:hover .slotname {border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.9); background-color: rgba(64,64,64,0.9);}div.adslot-overlay:hover .revenue {border-top: 1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.9); background-color: rgba(64,64,64,0.9);}"},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Destination Wedding Favors for Your Traveling Guests","item":"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/destination-wedding-favors-for-your-traveling-guests\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
