Would you rather...?

As a guest, would you rather as a favor:

Have photo of yourself in this photobooth.<-- Clicky
or
Homemade strawberry jam from fresh picked strawberries (FI & I are experienced canners and there are great local farms that do pick-you-own)

I'd pick photobooth.

If we were traveling the jam would get left behind. I wouldn't check a bag on a plane just to transport some jam back. Not to mention that some people are really picking about their jams.

Photobooths aren't really a "favor", but they can be a fun part of wedding. They're a bit overdone in my area (aka everyyyyyy wedding for the last three years has had one). But if you like it, go for it.

Edible favors are always best. Personally, I wouldn't take the jam as I don't like homemade items when I don't know if they were prepared properly. One near-death experience with food poisoning will do that to a person.

Chocolates or other candy are almost always winners when it comes to favors.

Wow, that's a tough one. I'd probablyyy go with the photobooth because of what Staar said, but they're both great ideas.

Thanks for saying what I wanted to say @itzMS! I couldn't find a nice way to say why I wouldn't take the jam even if I was local so I left it out. Everything I typed sounded really jerky because a migraine has left me with little patience today. So OP, I second what itzMS said!

Edited for spelling

Jam if I were local, photobooth if I had flown there.

BecauseYouAre · June 2013

Never thought about taking it on a plane. We have a few people that would fly in. Thanks for that perspective.

I'd choose the jam in a heartbeat, but I can understand those who are flying could have a problem with that. I would NOT be unhappy with the photo booth either. I would just be ecstatic you didn't give me anything with your names and wedding date on it!

JAM JAM JAM yummy

TonyAndShaunna · June 2013

I would pick photo booth

hutchsl · June 2013

I would pick the jam. But if i had to fly with it I would want to wrap it in bubble wrap to keep it from breaking.

NYCMercedes · June 2013

Photo booth! I'd leave the jam as I couldn't take it on the plane.

Dreamergirl8812 · June 2013

Photobooth.

Amsdragonfly · June 2013

jam- the jam would be very heartfelt from you both & tasty- edible favors are the best!

on my friend's wedding, she had her photographer take a picture of the guests as they walked in the reception room; and by the time guests left, the photographer had all the photos printed and in a picture frame for the guests to take home. It was an awesome idea, and everybody loved it. It's a great favor.

I'd pick jam. I considered this idea also, but we have wayyyy too many guests. Let me live vicariously through you and (if you do it), put a tag on it that says "spread the love".
