Favors?!

[Deleted User]

What are you all thinking of for favors? We have two ideas-- 1) personalized flower seed packets (if we don't use them for Save the Dates), or 2) mason jars etched with our wedding information and filled with my homemade chocolate chip cookies (FI's favorite!), along with a recipe card. I think we're leaning more towards #2.

We already got ours. We got pint glasses with our names on top double hearts under it and our wedding date on it.

Mini pumpkins (with place cards attached) and lots of fun-sized Halloween candy at the table.

We aren't doing favors!

I love both of your ideas. The seed packets are right up my alley, but I think the cookies would be awesome too! FI and I are having a relative make wine for us (as long as he's still willing). If not, I'm going to give each couple/family a quart of my homemade apple pie ala mode moonshine in mason jars.

@gregandheather--LOVE it! Great idea

@peachy13--We're also doubling our favors as place cards! Seems like a good way to save a little space/time/money.

@nicole4793--That's AWESOME! I would definitely do something like that, but we have some friends and family who don't drink or are in recovery.

@rusticbride27‌ thanks.

We aren't doing favors either. Our reception will be small enough, that if we do anything at all, we'll do custom labels on our favorite alcoholic beverage at each seat. But that's IF we decide to do something.

Our wedding reception is at a baseball stadium (how kickass right?) so we are giving out cotton candy with a personalized sticker on it as favors!

We're doing little bags of candy - the bags have our names and date on it in a leaf. Our wedding is Oct. 30th so it's our only little piece of Halloween

Photobooth so everypne gets a photo strip and we also get a photostrip guestbook!

And popcorn bar at the end of the night in bags with a sticker with our names/date on it.

@rusticbride27 both are cute, but I really like #2!  Yum!

We are doing a candy table with treat bags (ours in on Halloween!), coasters etched with our names and wedding info, and I am personally making handkerchiefs for each of our guests!  We are second lining in the French Quarter (New Orleans) in between our reception/ceremony!  I'm so excited!

We are doing Mason jars filled with my strawberry Jam or spiced grape jelly. With burlap on the kids for our favors.

We're doing apple cider donuts at the end of the night.

We're doing a candy and popcorn bar, and we've also got a photo booth.

Late to the party bUT we're not doing favors. Chocolate chip cookies sound great though!

ETA: so do those apple cider donuts!

We are also doing mini pumpkins with place cards attached and we are doing matchbooks which say "the perfect match". I know it's corny but I like it. We are doing a sparkler sendoff so they can light their sparklers and I figured who can't use a little match box in the junk drawer?

Our reception is at a baseball stadium and we are doing boxes of crackerjack that double as the seating cards

We're doing personalized mini bottles of spumante. Those were one of the first things we bought for the wedding, and it goes with our Italian wedding theme.

Personalized shot glasses. Our friend is going to engrave them for us. I'm super excited about them!

After much discussion, we've finally come up with an idea that we both love! Cookbooks with 5 of our favorite original recipes! (Cooking is our greatest shared passion... we plan on opening a vegan restaurant together and our friends are always asking us for our recipes.)

Super cute @rusticbride27! We have decided to either do coffee beans (because each day we wake up together and start our day with a cup of coffee) or chocolate covered salted caramels (because we love chocolate!) We are leaning more towards the chocolates because we think it will be best received by all our guests. I am going to package them like this to tie in with our STDs that were also airmail themed.

@morgpie That's so cute! We were actually thinking of coffee beans, too! But then I had to stop drinking coffee (SAD), so we decided not to.

MorgPie

@rusticbride27 omg that is sad! I hope that the decision has been positive though!

We are doing Koozies, My FH always carries one, he has me hooked on them, (he handed me a cold beverage the other day and I felt his forehead and said you feeling alright.. there is no koozie..) both our families have collections of them. so it was an easy decision.. actually one of the first (when we first started dating his BM got married and he wasn't allowed to have them, and I said Koozies would be awesome, I think thats when he decided I was it) hardest part is deciding what to put on them. I believe we found one finally though.. only royal blue koozie, and sill gray writing.
