Re: Poll: DIY Favors

  • We didn't do formal favors but did a candy buffet with bags for guests to help themselves as a favor.




  • We did a candy buffet and did the boxes myself and we also had personalized champagne bottles that I did myself.




  • We did two kinds of leaf shaped maple candies in a box with ribbon and a tag that had our names/date on them.

  • Ditto Anna & Stephie - we put together a candy buffet. I decorated the scoops & tongs to coordinate with our wedding colors and created custom labels for the candy bags.

  • I love to bake - it relaxes me.  So I figured, what better way to deal with wedding stress than to bake cookies for our favors?  Saves money AND my sanity.
  • we are having a january wedding, next weekend actually!!  So to tie in the winter theme I crocheted a scarf for everyone's favor.  I made them in white/silver for the girls and shades of grey for the boys.  we're going to tie them on the backs of the chairs and everyone can take theirs as they leave.
  • We are getting record albums pressed.  I am DIY'ing the cover design, etc, and getting the music together and such.
  • I'm going to be DIYing ours.  I'm doing little chocolate hearts in our wedding colors.
  • We had a photobooth and each strip had our wedding date printed on it that guests got to take home. It was a huge hit!
  • I am making charms for wine glasses.

  • We are in the process of finishing up on our favors...we did a love song CD.  I designed the casing for each individual CD as well as the CD cover itself.  Pictures coming soon!!!  We are also doing  a candy buffet table that I made the signs as well as decorated the scoopers myself:)

  • we're making homemade caramels (a family recipe) and boxing them up. They're great and you can make them a couple weeks in advance! I'm happy to share the recipe if anyone's interested :).
