So Excited! (kinda long sorry)
My cousins (both BMs) are now driving back home from a temporary move to LA. In MIssouri they saw all kinds of fireworks places. At one point since I am getting married the day before the 4th of july, I mentioned that I would love to have 3-4 sprklers tied with ribbon and attached to a personalized matchbook.
Well, I looked into buying sparklers over the internet (the only way I could get them) and it was just to expensive and complicated. So FI and I found a victorian style key shaped bottle opener, and we ordered them already for our favor!
Anyways... cuz just called, they were in a fireworks store and she got me 720 sprklers for $40!!!! They are green, red and blue... I would have preferred silver, but whatever! and then I went to look for persoanlized matchbooks and found this:

(I am still not able to post pics, sorry)
I fiured that since I have my favor already, this would be a great thing to have for the sparklers.
I NEED HONEST OPINIONS!!!
What do you ladies think of the placecard matchbook???
Thanks!
Teri

Re: So Excited! (kinda long sorry)
I love sparklers, but at what point would they be used? Or are they just to give out? Did you talk to your hall/church/ceremony location and are they cool with using them?? I would LOVE to use sparklers for our wedding too...but where and when???

Re: So Excited! (kinda long sorry)
yeah, not so much to use the day of... meant more for the next day for the 4th of July. So we would just be handing them. Though, I can just imagine one of my Stepfamily being plastered and lighting them in the reception room!
