Love is in bloom with these DIY succulent wedding favors! There’s nothing like a wedding favor that your guests can enjoy after your wedding day and these mini succulents are too cute to resist. But handing your guests a succulent to go isn’t very practical without giving them a box to travel with. Luckily, Kate Aspen happens to have some of the cutest favor box options around for weddings. I am obsessed with these mermaid tail boxes and how cute are these cake slice favor boxes? I chose to use their Butterfly Floral Boxes for these succulent wedding favors as they make the perfect addition to spring and summer weddings. The floral pattern is beautiful and the boxes are the perfect size for mini succulents. Imagine how excited your wedding guests will be to open up these favors to find tiny succulents inside! Read on below to learn how to create these succulent wedding favors.Things You Will Need:
Kate Aspen Butterfly Favor Boxes These boxes were recently discontinued but these kraft boxes could also work for this project.

Mini Succulents
Favor Tags
Glue Dots
Twine
Felt
First you will need to place four glue dots around the sides of your planter. Make sure to place them equally around as if your round planter has four corners. Next place your succulent on top of a square of felt so that each corner of the felt matches up with a glue dot. Bring the left and right sides of the felt up and stick to the glue dots.
Next you will attach the top and bottom pieces of felt. Hold one corner in your hand and carefully fold the two sides in. Attach this to your planter using more glue dots if needed.
Use a piece of twine to tie a bow around your succulent and attach a favor tag. We created tags with the saying “love in bloom” for our succulent wedding favors.
Finish off your succulent wedding favors by placing them inside the Butterfly Favor Boxes from Kate Aspen. Succulents can be a messy favor as they can easily tip over and get soil everywhere. These favor boxes make it easy for your guests to grab their favor while keeping your wedding free of mess! These succulent wedding favors are SO cute and perfect for spring or summer weddings!
