Wedding favors

Im stuck on this area of my wedding. I have no idea what to do for my favors. I know for sure I want something edible. What did you/are you giving as wedding favors? Any help is appreciated in advance! Thanks.

    We are doing many pound cakes. I got the idea from a wedding that was featured on TK. FI has an aunt that bakes the BEST pound cakes in the world so I am thrilled that she is baking them for us. I will package them in decorative boxes.

    I was born in Antigua in the West Indies so to tie in my backround we are doing mini bottles of a hot sauce and rum that are made in Antigua.

    FI is Italians so we're doing home-made mini biscottis and putting them in plactic bags I got from Hobby Lobby and sealing it with labels that'll have the recipe typed on them. Then putting them in a box like this (actual mock-up).

    Wow you girls got some good ideas!! They all sound soo good! I wish I could find someone in my family who made an amazing recipe of something. I did find some truffles that might work. Its very affordable too (1.70 for 2 truffles) they even put it in a pretty box with a nice ribbon on it.

    Thanks for the advice ladies!!

    i am doing a photo booth.  I also plan to do a gift bag for the out of town guest.  I will do water bottles and change the labels with our names.

    You can also do chocolate or varieties of candy. You can put them in cute little boxes with a small bow or colored drawstring bags w/ a tag (which would have your name, FIs name, and wedding date). Hope that helps!

    Love these ideas. One of the best favors I got was a bottle of flavored beer with a keychain can opener. Im not a beer drinker but it was the color of the wedding theme. I'm thinking of giving out Pink Tings ( I'm Jamaican)  and having a little snack something to go with it.

    What is a popcorn bar?

    That is a good idea. I'll have to price that out but I think that it will be reasonable.

    <div>They were so good too. I took both of ours since Cam left his at the table and did not realize it until we got home. He stole it back then tried to take mine...lol. We ended up with one each in the end and I enjoyed it thoroughly. I had never added chololate chips before that and I always will from now on.</div>
