Which thing amidst water bottles and bamboo coaster makes a better beach wedding favor?

My wedding is going to be a beach wedding, and I was thinking of giving water bottles for wedding favor, as they are far cheaper than candles. However, my fiancé feels that bamboo coaster is a better gift as wedding favor! I would like to get some advice from a wedding expert whether, which of the two, do you think, makes a better beach wedding favor. I shall be thankful to you for suitable advice!

Wedding favors can be anything but when you have a theme for the wedding it is important to choose them carefully.Beach weddings are about fun and romance. Since beach weddings are sunny and summery, beach wedding favors should also say thank you in a very memorable summery way. Therefore, it is important to choose an apt wedding favor.

There are vast array of choices for beach wedding favors from simple chocolates and mints to beautiful wine glasses and even pretty yacht shaped candle holders. The choice has to be made depending on the budget and convenience. Fragile items like glasses can be risky and huge bulky favors can be difficult to store and transport to the venue.

Both water bottles and bamboo coasters fit the bill as beach wedding favors. But water bottles are more common and simple wedding favors. One advantage with this is packing is not necessary so you will be able to save on that. At the same time there is nothing unique about them. But bamboo coasters can be more exciting. They are also eco-friendly and are great for venues like beaches. Packing is not mandatory and you can just tie a personalized ribbon around them if you want.

If both fit in to the budget, then bamboo coasters will be a better choice than water bottles.
