Favors
Is this tacky?
Since we are getting married at the beach, and the beach is a big part of our lives I was thinking of collecting seashells and putting them in favor bags for people to take home. Alot of our quest will be from out of town and not from the coast, so I thought they may appreciate taking home a part of the beach were we are to be married. But does this seem cheap or tacky?
I also collected alot of starfish that washed up during recent storms, painted them our colors. I am going to tie ribbon to them with a tag for a favor as well.
I am not really sure what to do with favors honestly beyond these two things. My fiancee and I are minimalist and more sentimental than materialistic. Any feed back will be so appreciated.

Re: Is this tacky?
But that's just me. Your crowd may be different.
I wouldn't call it tacky, but I would probably take this home, leave it next to the mail pile for a month and then throw it away while I'm cleaning.
I would personally keep exploring other options.
[QUOTE]Generally, edible favors are best. Not to be mean, but if <strong>I were a guest at your wedding and received a bag of seashells or a starfish for a favor, if I didn't leave them behind, they would definitely not make it into my house</strong>. I don't have any use for seashells or starfish. But that's just me. Your crowd may be different.

This. Go edible. You can find shell shaped candy or even cookies. That would go over better than actual shells.
