Planning an online wedding or virtual marriage doesn’t mean you can’t share special moments with those you love—even if they’re joining you from afar! One trend we’re loving at Virtual Same Day Marriage is sending wedding favors to virtual guests. It’s the perfect way to say thank you, create a sense of connection, and leave everyone with a meaningful keepsake from your Zoom wedding or virtual celebration.
Why Send Wedding Favors for Virtual Guests?
Your guests may not physically be in the room, but they’re still part of your big day! Sending out small tokens makes them feel valued and included in your love story. Plus, it’s a unique way to let your personality shine from behind the screen.
Popular Favor Ideas for Your Virtual Wedding
Want to keep it simple but special? Consider handmade soaps, custom mugs, mini bottles of champagne, or locally-made treats. For tech-savvy friends, e-gift cards or digital photo frames are thoughtful picks. Some couples even send DIY wedding favor kits! Check out our blog for more inspiration on virtual gifts and party favors.
How to Organize and Ship Wedding Favors to Virtual Guests
Start early! Ask your guests for mailing addresses in advance, preferably through your digital RSVP forms. If you need help managing lists, digital tools make it easy to organize, track, and print labels. Find out how our virtual planning process works so you can stay focused on celebrating instead of stressing over logistics.
Personalizing the Favor Experience
Add a custom touch by including a thank you note, snapshots from your engagement, or a QR code linked to your favorite playlist. If your wedding incorporates elements from different cultures or countries, tailor your favors to reflect those traditions.

Making Your Zoom Wedding Interactive
Encourage guests to open their favors during your Zoom wedding! Plan a little unboxing segment, or toast together with mini bottles for a sense of togetherness—even if you’re miles apart. Explore how to get legally married online and involve friends and family every step of the way.
Budget-Friendly Tips for Virtual Marriage Planning
Shipping individual favors can be costly, but group shipping to family hubs or opting for digital gifts can help manage your budget. Remember, it’s the thought and love that counts most. For more helpful tips, visit our virtual marriage guide.
