There is something that happens at weddings that I think about a lot. Guests get a little gift at their seat or on the way out the door, they smile, they say thank you, and then — more often than not — that favor ends up forgotten in a junk drawer or quietly left behind on the table. It doesn't have to be that way. Custom photo magnets as wedding favors are one of those ideas that genuinely changes what a favor can be, because they give people something they'll actually use and see every single day.
Think about it. A magnet lives on the refrigerator. It gets seen every morning when someone reaches for the creamer, every evening when they're figuring out dinner. A beautiful photo from your wedding day, right there in the middle of everyday life. That's not a forgotten favor. That's a memory that keeps showing up.
At Tumbleweed Magnet Creations, I handmake every single product right here in Bluff City, Tennessee. Nothing is mass produced. When you order custom wedding magnets through me, I'm the one designing them, cutting them, and finishing them with care. I offer seven different sizes and shapes, so whether you want something classic and simple or a little more unique, we can find the right fit for your wedding style. I also ship nationwide, so it doesn't matter if you're planning a wedding in California or Connecticut — I've got you covered.
One thing couples especially love is how personal personalized wedding favors can feel when they feature an actual photo. An engagement photo, a sweet snapshot from the couple's story, even a custom design that matches the wedding aesthetic. Guests walk away with something that feels intentional and meaningful, not just a placeholder gift.
Choose a shape and count your favors
- 2 × 2-inch square magnets or 3 × 3-inch square magnets: compare these when your photo works in a square crop.
- Rectangle magnet packs: compare portrait and landscape orientations if a tall photo or wider group feels cramped in a square.
- 2.25-inch round magnet packs: keep faces and text near the center. On this listing, select Magnet under Style Option.
Decide whether you are giving one favor to each guest or one to each household, then add any copies you want to keep. The custom photo-magnet listing offers packs of 4, 9, and 25. Check the ordering instructions for repeated copies or different photos before choosing a pack.
For a larger order, review bulk photo-magnet options. Bulk orders typically start at 50 magnets. Request a quote for your quantity, design, packaging and needed-by date.
I also offer a Create and Mail service for couples who want help getting favors out to guests who couldn't attend in person, and I bring my On-Site Magnet Studio to events for a truly memorable experience. However you want to make it work, I'm here to help you figure it out.
Check the photo and delivery plan before ordering
For favors to hand out at the wedding, choose an engagement photo or another image you already have. If you want to use a photo from the wedding day, ask about producing and sending the magnets afterward. Confirm the event date, venue and product choices if you are considering an on-site experience.
- Check names and dates, the photo crop, and whether any text is readable at the chosen size.
- Confirm how to supply repeated copies or different photos, and ask about file requirements if anything is unclear.
- For mailing help, review the Create & Mail photo-magnet service and include your distribution plan in the inquiry.
- Read the current shipping policy and allow for both production and delivery. Ask about your wedding date and order details before ordering if you need timing confirmed.
