This post is all about first communion favors.

First Communion Favors

Mini Wood Rosaries: I love the simple beauty of these wood rosaries. They even come with mesh bags. All that’s left to do is add a cute tag.
Angel Votive Candle Holders: Candles are a crowd-pleaser favor. Can you ever have enough? The angel silhouette is sweet and would be perfect on a shelf during the holidays a reminder of your first communion. I would add a votive candle, and then wrap each in a cello bag tied with a ribbon.
Cross Soap: Soap makes great first communion favors. This set comes with a gift box, which makes wrapping a no-brainer. You could add a sticker with a thank you message to the top of each box to personalize it a bit more.
Seed Paper: Since many first communions are in the spring, it’s the perfect time for a flower favor. This seed paper is so unique. To package it a bit more, you could hole-punch the top and tie a little bow with twine.
Cross Ring Dish: These sweet ring dishes are a practical favor your guests can get a ton of use out of. The scalloped edge is darling, and I love that you can personalize the cross color.
Prayer Candles: Prayer candles are an appreciated thank you gift for guests. You can go with blank candles like these, or choose one that comes with a label with your patron saint.
Candy: Lastly, candy in a cute container is an easy parting gift idea. I liked these simple clear and gold vessels, which you can fill with your favorite candy. White is a great option, or you could also choose a color coordinating with the rest of your party decor.
