Saying about meeting on match.com
For our wedding favors I think we are going to put a candle and then attach with a cute bow some matches. I would like to use this as the only little sign that we met on match.com, but would like a sweet saying to put with it.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks Karen

So thank you for your input and wish you all the best.

I wasn't suggesting that you should be ashamed of how you met. I did the match.com thing (as well as eharmony) before I met my fiance at my cousin's wedding. Everyone who is invited to the wedding is close enough to us that they know EXACTLY how we met. Heck, most of them were there. We gave it a cute one-line mention on our website, but I don't plan on dwelling on it at the wedding. There are actually many more significant parts to our relationship, things we have been through, times we have shared, than the day we met each other.
Thanks again and have a great day!!
Perhaps if your theme is vintage, you could find inexpensive stick matches in a box as opposed to the matchbook type of matches.
Love must be as much a light, as it is a flame. ~Henry David Thoreau
Love is like a friendship caught on fire.
“At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us.”
Good luck to you.
Ok now I am way to sappy and I do love these and thanks for the response!
Best of luck to you also! Thanks again!
[QUOTE]If candles have special meaning to you, then that's great. I'm just very anti-clutter, so the last thing I need in my house is more "stuff", especially one lone candle that doesn't match anything else. I'm just one of those people who is generally anti-favor, unless it's something that I can eat. But if it's fairly generic (white, clear or frosted glass holder) then maybe I'l lthrow it in the drawer and use it when the power goes out.

<div>Snarky, much?</div><div>God knows let's not at all celebrate the day we met, it's just "one single day". Or hell, let's not celebrate the day we were born, it's just one day. Or you know, the day you get married... it's just one day. Ugh.</div><div>
</div><div>OP, I think that's a cute idea, and I would love a candle :P especially with the matches / Match.com tie-in, gives it a personal touch instead of "just" a candle. </div>

But I understand why you want to do it! So just wanted to say I like the idea alot! And if there is an odd person out there, who thinks it is "clutter" then they don't have to take it, if it is such an inconvenicence having one candle clutter their whole house!!
Hi Karen,
You read my mind, I met my fiance on match.com and I had the exact same idea, with putting "The Perfect Match" on matches along with a candle!
I am trying to brainstorm other ideas as well. If I think of any I will let you know and please send any my way! The whole favor thing is starting to drive me crazy.
