Simply pick up some small scented soaps at your local discount store as well as some ribbon or sheer material to wrap them in.

Candles - Candles will probably be on your guest tables anyway, so why not give them as practical wedding favors? Everyone loves candles, and you can order them in any shape, size, color, or smell to match your wedding or your personal style. You don't have to spend the extra money to have them personalized, simply buy some ornate ribbon to tie around them and you have a great favor that will be a huge hit.
