Wedding Favours & Gifts in Newfoundland and Labrador

Wedding favours are a thoughtful way to thank your guests for celebrating with you. NL is home to a community of artisans, makers, and small businesses that create beautiful, personalized wedding favours and gifts. From locally sourced NL products like bakeapple jam and partridgeberry preserves to artisanal chocolates, custom candles, seed packets for guests to plant, and Maritime-themed gifts, NL vendors offer a wonderful variety of options.

In Newfoundland and Labrador, wedding favours typically cost $2 to $8 per guest. Simple favours like personalized stickers or small candy bags start at $2 per guest, while premium favours like custom candles, engraved glassware, or artisanal food gifts can range from $5 to $12 per guest. Many couples also create welcome bags for out-of-town guests, filled with local NL treats, maps, and personalized notes, typically costing $12 to $30 per bag.

NL's local food and craft scene makes it easy to find meaningful favours. Popular options include bakeapple (cloudberry) jam and preserves, partridgeberry products, NL wild blueberry products, artisanal chocolates, locally distilled spirits (including iceberg vodka), craft beer from NL breweries, Purity Factory treats (a beloved NL brand known for crackers, candies, and cookies), handmade soaps and candles, custom cookies, and locally made jams and preserves. For eco-conscious couples, seed bombs, potted succulents, and reusable items are increasingly popular. NL-themed items like puffin or iceberg motifs are also popular.

When choosing favours, consider your guest count and budget, whether the favour is practical or edible (edible favours are generally the most appreciated), how they will be displayed at the reception, and whether you need them personalized. Order favours 2 to 3 months before the wedding to allow time for production and personalization. Many NL vendors offer custom packaging and labels to match your wedding colours and theme. For destination weddings in NL, welcome bags featuring local treats are especially appreciated by guests who have travelled to the province.
