As a wedding guest, what would you prefer to receive?

We are set to do the cd's as favors, but I was talking with a friend and started talking about favors. I don't know, I started re-thinking our favor.

I donate to St. Judes every year and I was just thinking this $$ I was going to use on the cds could go to a better cause.

Re: As a wedding guest, what would you prefer to receive?

i gave CD's as placecards for the engagement party. something different for the gift.

but thats just me

Re: As a wedding guest, what would you prefer to receive?

I would do the donation.. i love st. judes, and I think it's very thoughtful and your guests will think it's a very thoughtful thing to do as well.

Re: As a wedding guest, what would you prefer to receive?

I am doing a donation and a box of candy.

I like the idea of donations and I would do the donation with something else small, whether it be the CD or candy or anything else you can think of.

Re: As a wedding guest, what would you prefer to receive?

I voted both... it is great to donate money but still give the guests something to take home to remember your celebration by...

Re: As a wedding guest, what would you prefer to receive?

I voted the cd & the donation. I would definetly stay away from the wine stopper. The last 2 weddings & bridal shower I went to had wine stoppers as the favor

What am I going to do with all these stoppers?And I already had a bunch of them to begin with!

ETA: The one I got from the shower was great because it was a pourer (whichavoids dripping) & a stopper in 1. That was very useful!

Definetly the donation with a small token gift. I went to FI's cousin wedding in May and she printed up scrolls to explain the donation along with tiny wine glass candles. It was cute and meaningful.

Re: As a wedding guest, what would you prefer to receive?

i like the donation idea i think its very nice. i did one but i also gave a favor away that my mom purchased for us

Re: As a wedding guest, what would you prefer to receive?

I like the idea of the donation..that to me is a great idea. Maybe you can also do the CD or a small token (candy etc) for the guests to remember the day by....

Re: As a wedding guest, what would you prefer to receive?

I like the donation, but a lot of people like to go home with somehting in their hands.. My sister gave out perosnalized CD's as one of her favors and it was sucha HUGE hit..peopel are still talking about it and asking for extra copies!

Re: As a wedding guest, what would you prefer to receive?

I personally feel the donation is the most unselfish thing you could do, it's for a good cause

Re: As a wedding guest, what would you prefer to receive?

Definetly both....

Re: As a wedding guest, what would you prefer to receive?

i would rather a wine stopper or a CD.......i got a custom made CD and because FH and i are such mushballs, we loved it!

Re: As a wedding guest, what would you prefer to receive?

We already got the stuff to make CDs and it really is not too expensive!! If you could handle it, I think the CD and a donation would be awesome!

Re: As a wedding guest, what would you prefer to receive?

i think just a donation is perfect!!!

Re: As a wedding guest, what would you prefer to receive?

well i guess i have to answer wine stopper , since that is what i choose to give my guests..

Re: As a wedding guest, what would you prefer to receive?

I agree the CD's are not expensive but I like the donation idea..I choose not to do it, but I think that in the end it's something I would not " keep in a closet somewhere" ya know?? It's worth every penny so to speak..

Re: As a wedding guest, what would you prefer to receive?

I think the donation idea is fabulous and so caring!
