My friend just gave 3 mini bottles of liquer, so I think that's my favorite. My SIL gave these dinky little flower pots and the darn flower never even grew. And when I say dinky, they were like the size of a votive candle.

Re: Best/Worst favor you ever received

For me, the best were wine, Godiva chocolates, and candles because I actually used them...
Worst - any type of knick-knack! I'm just not a knick-knacky person.

Re: Best/Worst favor you ever received

Are you doing the personalized M&M's? I think those are really cute and anything you can eat works for me!

Re: Best/Worst favor you ever received

The best was a bottle of wine (always appreciated)

The worst is was a butter knife with a little tag that said 'Spread the love'

Re: Best/Worst favor you ever received

Best..wine that came in this nice silver bucket..I still have the bucket and have found many uses for it. And I love the ice cream scoopers. And I love when the couples make personalized CD's. Haven't gotten a bad CD yet!!

Worst...anything personalized..like personalized champagne glass..and a personalized wine glass with a gell candle inside. To me, those stink... I was not super close to the couples and I don't want something with their names on it hanging around my house for years to come..plus, what am I going to do with one champagne glass?

Re: Best/Worst favor you ever received

Best was a heart society rubber bracelet I got at one of my BM's wedding's a few weeks ago. Her father passed away due to a heart condition last year and it really meant something to everyone.

Can't think of a worst.

Re: Best/Worst favor you ever received

The best was a wine and the worst was a beer mug with the bride and groom's names on it- it was like a prom favor.

Originally the best favor I got was really pretty heart candle holder with a candle in it but then when you burnt the candle the glass holder shattered and it happened to a bunch of us not just me so it was kind of the best/worst all in one.

Re: Best/Worst favor you ever received

Edited because I just read the first portion about people not getting offended about the 'worst.' That's what I had originally written but I think this thread has been written 3 times and all times, the worst part, people get really hurt :

So

Best: donation

Re: Best/Worst favor you ever received

I like all my favors, but i have to admit getting a platisc noise maker or a silver bell is the worst.
