If desserts and candy isn’t your thing, how about preparing a nice, healthy breakfast for your guests? Packed like this, they can even take it for work! To prepare the pumpkin spice granola, you need 3 cups old fashioned oats, ½ cup sliced almonds, ¼ cup pumpkin seeds, ¼ cup sesame seeds, ½ cup golden raisins, 3 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon pumpkin spice seasoning, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon salt, 4 tablespoons coconut oil, ¼ cup honey, ¼ cup pumpkin puree, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract.

Perfect for guests who love cooking, they will find this handmade rosemary-infused olive oil really useful.

To make the wedding favor look even nicer, tie a tag around the bottle and write whatever you want.
7. Milk Bottle Favors
Instead of jars, why not use mini milk bottles? They can look equally cute and still be a great wedding favor. It is really easy to make these favors by yourself, as all you need to have besides the milk bottles are candy, adhesive printable kraft paper, a printable file (that you can download for free on the website below the picture), and craft scissors.
