me and my f are wanting a slideshow at the wedding but we really dont think it possible bc our venue does not have a place to project it or anything. we are having about 35 guest and i was wondering would it be a bad idea to put the slideshow on a dvd/cd at every seat at the dinner we are having? i think it would be nice for people to have it but then again will people actually watch it or should i not care? also if we gave these out as favors we would not play the slideshow during the wedding. otherwise we are going to figure something else out. any suggestions are welcome! thank you!

    I'm sorry, but that is NOT a favor I would want.

    I agree with pp, this is not a favor.  No one wants a slide show of you and your husband.

    do you have access to a projector?  If so then you could make your own projector screen.  We did this for cookouts in the backyard so we could watch the race.

    If you google it there is a ton of sites that will show you how to make one.

    yeah, sorry OP, i can't imagine anyone viewing that as a "favor".

    if you don't want to mess with a projector but still want the photos around, maybe you could use some of them on your table numbers or escort cards, or frame them and scatter them around as part of your centerpieces.

    Agree that it would not be a favour.

    Could you maybe set up a laptop at the card/gift or cake table and have that running? Like when people sign your guest book they can look at it etc as it is normally only 2 or 3 people at the table at a time.

    Yep - we rented a slideshow & projector from our DJ in order to display the slideshow.  I like that route, or possibly printing hard copies of photos to use around the reception.  I definitely agree that a slideshow on DVD will not be considered a meaningful / logical favor.  Good luck!
