			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://greatgreenwedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/caramel-wedding-favors.jpg"><img src="http://greatgreenwedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/caramel-wedding-favors.jpg" alt="" title="caramel-wedding-favors" width="400" height="400" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-249" /></a><br />
Fleur de Sel caramel, rich and creamy with a sophisticated salty tang makes a great wedding favor. When it is packaged in eco-friendly unbleached paper bags and tied with ribbon it is a perfect green gift for your guests.</p>
<p>The caramel is handmade, soft and chewy and looks irresistible. There are three in each package, individually wrapped in natural unbleached parchment paper. The vanilla and salt used is already organic, but 100% organic ingredients can be used on request, though it costs more. And while we’re on cost, just check the shipping fee before ordering, as it will add quite considerably to the total.</p>
<p>The caramels themselves cost $225 (plus shipping $75) for 100 bags with three caramels in each from <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/70039997/fleur-de-sel-caramel-wedding-favors-in?ref=sr_gallery_21&#038;ga_search_query=eco-friendly+wedding&#038;ga_page=5&#038;ga_search_type=handmade&#038;ga_facet=handmade">The Caramel Jar</a> on Etsy.</p>

I love the idea of handmade soap as wedding favors.  These soaps, from <em>Life Tree Botanicals</em> have some yummy scents that you can choose from like: smooth peppermint, wild oats and apple, cedarwood chamomile and a bunch more.  Life Tree Botanicals also offers gift baskets which would be a nice gift for your out of town guests.  Check out the website for details on how to obtain a sample.

Poetry!!  &#8230;the world might be a better place if everyone read a little bit more poetry.  Always good for the soul to slow down, take a minute and read a poem.  I love the idea of the bride and groom picking out a poem to give their guests at their wedding.<br />
The poem can be presented beautifully with these plantable ecofriendly paper favors.  They are embedded with wildflower seeds and can be planted after the wedding.  It has all the symbolism a bride could ever want, they can be imprinted with your choice of words (or use the ones they provide), they come with a matching ribbon available in a bazillion colors.<br />
$2.95 each (minimum purchase of 24) at <a href="http://www.favorideas.com/shopping/prod/MOEFLpoemfavor.htm">Favor Ideas</a></p>
