It is a trend nowadays for couples to get married during summer. The choice may be personal or just to follow traditions, but they know that summer brings a lot more opportunity and space to do what they want in their wedding. It is not as restricting as what other seasons bring in; this flexibility extends to choosing the summer wedding favors to please the wedding guests.

The variety of activities enjoyed during Summer opens up an array of themes to incorporate into a summer wedding favor.

Summer flowers are a delight at any wedding. Continuing that look to decorate the table and provide a small gift for guests is a great idea. Small flower holders, perhaps personalized with the bride and groom's names and the date is one way to do so. Fill the little vase with silk summer roses and you've got a hit.

Imagine sailing over the lake near your honeymoon cottage. Use that image in your summer wedding favors. A small glass sailboat with a logo that evokes a wedding can be the perfect choice. Add to the scene with some small, colorful beach balls and you've got a 'mini movie' worthy of your wedding.

Expand the panorama by decorating the tables with cute shells, clams, sand crabs, and starfish handcrafted from resin or marble or any materials. They'll be your guests' summer trinkets they can enjoy even in the cold of winter.

Or, is it a tropical island honeymoon for you? Remind your guests of how much fun you'll have lazing on the beach and the many activities lined up for you. A little golf bag with clubs will say it all. And so will place card holders with pineapple-shaped bases. How about giving out miniature sandboxes with flip flop leather key chains with Hawaiian prints?

Picture frames are charming and useful at the same time. Choose those that have seashells around the border. Then put in an engagement photo of the happy couple. Miniature surfboards make fantastic summer wedding favors too especially if either or both the bride and groom are avid surfers. Even mini buckets would look great as candle holders. Just remember to include the tea lights and embellish them with ribbons to keep the wedding look.

Even if you're heading to the forest for your honeymoon, you can still choose summer wedding favors that suggest the great outdoor adventure you will have. Your friends can share your excitement for the Black Forest of Germany or the mountains of Montana.

To add a more dramatic effect, put in mini-lanterns that give off a soft glowing light. The ultimate time to go on log cabin vacations is in summer. Try to create that feel with miniature cabins placed with the pine trees. Small, delicate ceramic horses that are beautifully crafted make for unique summer wedding favors, and an apt representation of the many horse rides you'll be enjoying on your honeymoon vacation. Wedding guests will be thrilled to bring home these delightful favors and display them in their homes.

There are so many things you can give as summer wedding favors. You can easily find one that is truly representational of what it is you want to share with your guests. In the end, whatever you choose for a summer wedding favor would always be a happy reminder of that wonderful day.
