Wedding Favours & Gifts in Prince Edward Island

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

In Prince Edward Island, 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 PEI treats, maps, and personalized notes, typically costing $12 to $30 per bag.

PEI's local food and craft scene makes it easy to find meaningful favours. Popular options include PEI potato products (the island's most famous export — from potato chips to potato vodka), PEI wine and mead from island wineries, artisanal chocolates, locally distilled spirits from PEI craft distilleries, craft beer from PEI breweries, wild blueberry products, Cows Ice Cream treats, 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.

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 PEI vendors offer custom packaging and labels to match your wedding colours and theme.
