Has anybody done one favor per couple? Our favors are big in size and I was thinking of doing one per couple (and one per single person). My question is how would you set that up for the guests at the table????
We're making the favors this week and we need to decide how many to make, If we do one per person then we will only do half of our plan but if we do one per couple we are able to do the entire thing.
Our plan: (note: FI is chef)
We are going to brand our initial into a cedar plank. In addition we were going to make our own rub to go along with the plank so all they need to do is get some meat and cook away. If we do one per person it will only be the plank.
Re: How to set up favors?
Otherwise, you might tag your favors with the couples names and just put them on a table together.

Then attach your escort card to the plank and rub.

Table #7
Then we have our table assignment and our favor all at one time.
our initial was just a way to make the wood like nicer and it will burn off anyways once they use it. It's not meant to be a decoration and it shows we made it. but if you think it seems too self-centered maybe we should rethink.

Lovely idea. Not sure if all PP realize that the plank is used for grilling meats or fish and that you basically use it once and throw it out, as opposed to keeping it in your kitchen --- but I love it. And I love the idea of burning your monogram into the planks.
Given the size of the favor, I would suggest that you make 50 planks and 50 spice rubs (if your budget allows for this) so a table of 8 would have 4 planks and 4 spice rubs, alternating around the table. So, some single quest would go home with a plank, and others a spice rub.
