Party favors are the nicest way of thanking your guests for attending your party. Since many people who attend your party do get gifts, it is a nice gesture to offer something in return.

Plan your party favors. You might buy simple and inexpensive favors or you might invest in favors which cost more. But the essential thing is that the party favor should be liked and cherished by the guest. But that does not mean that if you spend more, the favor becomes more memorable.

The best way to choose a party favor would be to pick a party favor that is specific to the theme of the baby shower.

A photo frame, a photo album, a printed matchbook, little champagne bottles, cosmetics and accessories, photo images printed on the thank-you cards you give the guests are just some examples of party favors.

One of the nicest things you could do is invest in blank cds, and then burn or write the best love songs from your friend's MP3 or CD collection (if you don't have that is). You could choose from the best party numbers or soulful romantic melodies. Then gift these CDs to your guests. For a relatively small cost, you would be giving your guests an invaluable party favor; which they could listen to over and over for many years to come.

The more creative you are with your party favors, the more chances of your party favors standing out as precious mementos to the guests. Those cute souvenirs and trinkets could cost you peanuts, but they should remind the guests of the memorable and joyous time they had at your party.
