Wedding Welcome Gift Idea: 10 Soaps and Candles for Special Guests

Wedding Welcome Gift Idea: 10 Soaps and Candles for Special Guests

via

Chances are you have several special guests coming from out-of-town like grandparents and siblings. Welcome them to your wedding with a gift waiting for them in their hotel room. We have collected 10 of our favorite soaps and candles that are sure to make them smile (even after that 6 hour flight with 2 layovers).

Let's start things off with our favorite candles. Perhaps you think it would be fun for your wedding to have a "signature" scent. After all, scent is heavily linked to memory recall. If you are having a wedding in the summer, consider a floral-citrus combo (above, left), whereas a winter wedding should feature warmer scents, such as fig (above, right).

Got a burly dude on your guest list that thinks candles only come in the vanilla scent his girlfriend buys? Not so. Try masculine fragrances like bergamot and tobacco (above) or one that delivers all the joy of a campfire without the pesky smoke (below).

For extra-special someones (like your moms), give them an indulgent Jo Malone candle (below). Buy one for yourself, too. Life changing and a perfect combo for everyone (personally, I'm all about the lavender and lovage).

If you want to give a fun gift, but boutique candles just aren't in the budget, wrap up some soaps. You can DIY some cutie gift bags out of Kraft paper. Way better than those tiny hotel soaps.

So I know this shaving soap (above) is supposed to be for the fellas, but this smells so good you'll find yourself stealing one. Because a lot of people don't like wearing heavy scents, stick with lighter fragrances, such as almond and honey or the clean, fresh aroma of wool fat soap (sounds strange, but one try and you will be a believer-I always have a bar on hand).
