If you are thinking of giving soaps as favors you will find a wide variety of shapes, themes, styles & scents to choose from. The most luxurious will come presented in boxes, whilst others may come in pretty organza bags.
Some of the prettiest soaps are flower shaped with a corresponding scent, but you will also find them shaped along other themes such as ladies accessories, fairy tales & butterflies. You will also find a choice of colors so you can tie them in with your wedding colors too.
Another choice is bottles of liquid soaps in customized bottles & dispensers. You will find them in all shapes & sizes but you should try to keep in mind that elegance is the key to this style of favor & look for glass bottles instead of plastic & nice packaging. In some cases you may also be able to personalize the label to include your names & wedding date.
Hand made soaps is a big trend & you will find a huge variety to choose from. Many manufacturers will use only the best & purest ingredients & although they may cost slightly more than there commercially produced counterparts, they are well worth the extra expense for the luxury they bring. Do some research & see if you can get a special for buying in bulk, particularly if you are on a tight budget.
