In general, I really prefer edible favors (as do a lot of other posters). I might go with the pink/orange/lime thing if you want to stay with your theme and maybe put together little bags of candy with those colors/flavors that still taste good? Or a candy buffet using those colors?

I also like edible, so don't know how you would incorporate that. I guess you could print it on the label. Also, not what you asked but I've seen paper cranes used to adhere escort cards to... Not a swan but a bird with a long neck, just an idea If you were looking to do something w escort cards or hadn't thought of that.

wel my escort cards are origami swans every table has a diffrent color swan http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0zTNCRg-Uc these are the ones i'm doing .

if i would do edible i would like to go for macarons they look so cute and flashy :-) the other thought i had was asking a local artist to make iron swans with or date on but maybe like they said before if it's not their style they wont use it ?

something like tis but brighter colors in a plastic bag met with a label on than for being so sweet ? or so ???

Yes to the macaroons! No to the iron swans.

If there's anything I hate more than knick knack favors, it's personalized knick knack favors!  Stick with an edible favor.

Maybe you could find orgami-style swan boxes to put the macaroons or other edibles into (in a plastic bag, of course)?  Should be less expensive than iron, still carries the theme, but without the clutter factor.

i saw some chocolate swans in the chocolat store here maybe that could be the way to go
