54) Honor special people by handing them flowers at the ceremony

56)A coffee-table book featuring your wedding or honeymoon locale can make a unique guest book; invite everyone to sign the pages.

57) Give packets of seeds as favors with a note asking guests to plant them to signify the start of your new life as a married couple.

58) If you sing or play an instrument, join the band for a number or two.

59) For a tropical wedding, give pina colada or margarita mixes as favors.
