96 Lavender Organza Favor Pouches with Custom Printed Tags - Any Message

Let me help you design the perfect favor bags for your wedding day!

Numerous brides have selected Susan's Greetings to create customized favor bags for their wedding.

I will work with you to select the color and style of paper to decorate these lavender organza bags, which are large enough to hold favors such as cookies, candles, candies, soaps and potpourri.



These organza pouches measure 4.5 inches by 7 inches (11.43 cm by 17.78 cm.)

Each bag will come with a scalloped circle punched tag.

Tags can be custom printed with a short message, such as the bride and groom's names and wedding date, or stamped with any initial along with one of 3 border designs.

One of my latest wedding projects

I've made more than 5,000 custom printed wedding favor bags since last year. Here are some photos from my latest custom wedding order.

These large glassine favor bags will be perfect for a cookie buffet. I worked with the bride to select the perfect gold and ivory scroll paper for the outer tags, the wording and style of the inner tags and the type of ribbon to tie the bags.


The bride sent me wording for this large tent-folded sign, which will be placed at the cookie buffet.


This cute little tent folded sign will encourage guests to pick up flipflops for the dance floor.


These 3x4 tags will be tied to apothecary jars holding different Italian cookies for guests.
