Forever Wedding Favors

The little thank‑you your guests carry home

We're a small, family-run team in Monroe, Connecticut. We help couples find wedding favors that fit their day, then personalize them with your names and wedding date so every guest takes home a thank-you from the two of you.

How we got started

Planning a wedding is a lot. We wanted the favors to be the easy part.

Wine stoppers, each engraved with a couple's names or initials.

After years in the wedding industry, we wanted to give couples one place to find personalized favors. So we built it: hundreds of favors sorted by type and by theme, with your names at the center.

A name makes a favor more meaningful. A candle or a bottle stopper is a nice gesture. With your names and wedding date on it, it becomes a keepsake.

Forever Wedding Favors is run by Chris and Melissa Bajda, the husband-and-wife team behind Groovy Groomsmen Gifts, which has served more than 100,000 grooms since 2013. Our Monroe workshop engraves and packs orders for both shops.

Our workshop in Monroe, Connecticut

Our workshop sits at 484 Pepper Street in Monroe. This is where our team laser engraves names and dates and packs personalized orders for the trip to your door.

When you call or email with a question, you reach the same small team that runs the shop, right here in Monroe.
