When my oldest son's godfather got married they had a special "favor" for my kids- a bag filled with coloring books, crayons, stickers, etc. It kept the kids entertained at the table during dinner and the toasts. I'm pretty sure they had similar favor bags for all the other kids there as well.
My favorite adult favor has been a silver picture frame that holds a wallet sized picture. It originally had the placecard in it, but now it sits on my windowsill with a picture of my kids in it.
Not exactly wedding favors, but along the same lines-- I went to a desination wedding in South Carolina and we all had gift baskets in our hotel rooms. The groom was from Ohio and the bride from Maryland so the gift baskets had a little bit of both- Maryland Utz Crab Chips, Ohio Chocolate buckeyes, plus sunscreen, chapstick, and it was all put in a sand bucket with a frizbee as a lid.
