    I love apples from NY.  Not that you can't get apples from other states, but Empire apples and Cortland apples originated in NY and are yummy.

    My brother used Saratoga water in the blue bottles as favors since he was getting married outside of Saratoga. They were a hit with everyone. I agree with a lot of the posters on this.. random things like the Stewarts soda, or the apples... Cortlands are amazing. You may be able to get the donuts at maybe Price Chopper or another grocery store. If you are getting married in September or October... any apple orchard will sell them. Saratoga Apple is amazing. Its on route 29 going towards Schuylerville. Good luck with your hunting!

    You could do Jello! The Jello Factory is from LeRoy.

    Michigans! Hahaha, just kidding. My suggestions are: homemade jam, apple cider donuts, or maple syrup/candy.
