We really love the idea of a romantic garden wedding – and eco-friendly favors such as potted plants are a great way to keep with the theme and thank your wedding guests with something that’s both pretty and practical. So we went ahead and rounded up 11 plant favors that are conveniently sized and beautiful, too. Whether your guests decide to add the plant to their garden or keep it in the provided pot, these plants are sure to brighten up their home, office, or anywhere else they decide to keep them. Take a look at our favorite plant favors for a wedding below, and be sure to take a look at our Greenery Guide as well which includes 20 of our favorite greens and how to use them in your wedding.

Lavender not only produces a well-loved scent (commonly used in perfumes and sachets) – it’s also good for flavoring. So, your wedding guests get the best of both worlds.
Air Plants

Air plants are perfect for anyone who doesn’t have a lot of experience with caring for plants. They’re easy to care for and can be styled in several unexpected ways. We especially like how they look in blown glass orbs.
Palm Fronds

Palm fronds are a popular choice for indoor growers – although they require regular watering, they need minimal fertilizer and minimal sunlight.
Succulents

Succulents are very on trend right now and they are easy to gift to wedding guests given their small sizes. One of our favorite ways to gift succulents is in mini glass terrarium bowls.
