Did anyone give out tree seedlings or seeds for favors?
Did people like the idea? Were there lots left that people didn't take with them?

    I want to do this as my favor as well. I think it's such a cute little idea.

    Has anyone else done this?
    Thanks.

    Went to a wedding that gave out wild flower seeds - the note said, Love is in bloom. Thought it was cute, everyone took a packet.

    I dont know when you guys are getting married but when i was in Lowes the other day they had these flowers
    they were shaped like an egg and you crack the top open put it on a little plate and it blooms into flowers they were so cute and perfect for an April/May wedding.

    I like the idea but I wouldn't take the favor.  Think about where you live.  I live in Los Angeles and the majority of people live in apartments so we wouldn't have a use for them.

    i'm planning a december wedding, and I too was thinking of using evergreen tree seedlings as favors.  i know that if i went to a wedding with seedling favors, i would by psyched, but i'm also worried that the vast majority would think it is lame.  opinions????

    Just to follow up:

    I ordered a sample of a mini plant which arrived last night.

    FI saw it and said it looked like a weed! It made me laugh, but he was kind of right :)

    Jagore08 has a good point and I do not think a lot of people would take them home.

    I don't think I'm going to do them. *sigh* back to the drawing board.

    I am grateful to see this post - we are having a very small spring destination wedding where we live - in the Colorado rockies. I thought it would be nice to give out Colorado mountain wildflower seeds as the favor (small and easy to travel with). All of our guests have houses, etc. I think they would really like them. But my question is, how do you personalize them?  I like the note above "Love is in Bloom". Any other wording ideas?!?!

    Thanks!
