Are any of you doing the personalized M&Ms as gifts for your wedding? I have been playing around with it on the site and I love them. I think they would be great to add in the gift bags for my guests....However, I could just get other candy to be budget friendly.

    I loved playing with that site too and I really wanted to do the personalized M&Ms but I ran out of time and never ended up ordering them. 

    After my wedding I saw individual colors of m&ms at party city and I thought that those would have been really cool to use in our OOT bags and they would have been cheeper than the personalized ones and they would have been in our colors.

    We liked the idea of personalized M&Ms but they were just too expensive for us to justify. It wasn't just the cost of the M&Ms, but it was finding a nice container to put them in, that would keep them cool in the Sacramento summer heat.

    I like the idea of the personalized m&m's.  I looked into getting them a couple months ago and I still may do them, I think my guests would like them.

    I thought about doing a candy buffet & priced the M & M's...they were really cool & I liked them, but now I'm going in another direction. Being that my wedding is a movie/theatre theme, we are doing a popcorn buffet (5 different flavors) as one of our favors.....Now searching for inexpensive popcorn!

    I love the idea of the personalized M&Ms! I don't know if I could fit that in with my theme, but I think it's a super cute idea!!!!

    I am actually thinking about ordering the personalized M&M's...although I may not put them in the favor bags...I was thinking about putting a small bowl on the bar with the M& M's in it and by the burdcage or card box in the study where guests will drop the gifts off at the mansion...less money spent...
    I say order them if you think they are cute....the idea of the colored M&M's that aren't personalized is a great idea too.

    I'm doing orange & green mints near the bar area, & perhaps some Jelly Bellys, but that's it... I'm trying to control myself :) LOL!!!

    Ladies, I got the popcorn bags from Hobby Lobby for really cheap... I'm trying to find some popcorn tins from christmas at like TJ Maxx or something, but if not, I've found some gourmet shops online that have loads of flavors...I ordered monogram stickers to put on the clear cellophane bags which will hold the popcorn bags (if that makes sense)....

    My invites are shaped like movie tickets & my table names are all black love movies...so cool!!
    Sorry to hijack the thread...

    That is a cute theme... movies. I think that when you really get into your theme, it's turns out more unique.

    I love them ! But we are opting out for two reasons. The first was that they are too expensive. The second, is that fi's cousin just did them at her wedding this new years. So even if I decided that I wanted to spend the extra dough, I dont really feel comfortable with it.
