If you're hosting an upcoming dinner party, it's always a good idea to purchase party favors for your guests. Although they are certainly not necessary, they are a thoughtful way of thanking your guests for their presence. When choosing favors, consider your guests' interests and the theme of your dinner party.

If your dinner party has a theme, choose guest favors that match your theme. Examples include seeds or miniature birdhouses for a garden-themed party, flip-flops or beach bags for a beach-themed party, silk fans or fortune cookies for an Asian-themed party, or mittens or scarves for a winter-themed party. Other favor ideas include cookie cutters, bookmarks or books that match your theme.

Personalized Favor

Many items can be custom ordered with your guests' names or initials, including coasters, tea light holders, note pads, decks of cards, ornaments and cosmetic bags. Alternatively, you could purchase metal favors and have them engraved with your guests' names. Ideas include jewelry, cuff links, money clips, pens, mini keepsake boxes and serving pieces.

Edible Favor

Edible favors are popular choices for most events. They don't have to match your party's theme or color scheme, but they certainly can. Examples include homemade cookies with the recipe attached, gourmet popcorn, jumbo lollipops, jam jars, pouches of hot chocolate with chocolate-dipped spoons, gourmet candy apples, mini boxes of truffles and mint tins.

Alcohol-Related Favor

If the guests attending your dinner party enjoy alcohol, then an alcohol-related favor may be the way to go. Examples include shot glasses, wine stoppers, bottle openers, miniature bottles of premium alcohol, cocktail kits, cocktail recipe refrigerator magnets, cocktail shakers, flasks, beer koozies and alcohol-flavored chocolates.
