Ok ladies, help me out here...I need favor ideas

So as many of you know I am having a baseball theme/NY Mets theme. I have no idea of what type of favor to give. Should I keep it in the theme or just give out something people will actually use?



HELP!!!!

if you want to keep it within the theme you can do edible favors. Ive seen baseball shaped and designed cookies

baseball cookies, clear favor boxes with mets M&Ms (mixed in with other white, orange, blue M&Ms), mugs with peanuts or cracker jacks, baseball playing cards, you can also put a special sticker on one favor and that guest wins a pair of mets tickets (they dont have to be good seats)

I love the idea of cracker jacks! You could do cracker jacks or even peanuts in some little gift box.

Re: Ok ladies, help me out here...I need favor ideas

I've seen baseball cookies with the Mets emblem on them... that would be adorable! My one friend gave out a letter saying that he was going to buy tickets for everyone for a game - he did it for the Yankees and it was in bleachers, but he probably saved money because not everyone could make it - but it was an awesome favor idea!

Re: Ok ladies, help me out here...I need favor ideas

Do the mets still offer the 'bring a can of pepsi and sit in the bleachers for free"?? I know they did a few years ago but I'm not sure if they still do it..

It would kinda be cute to give a can of pepsi to everyone, even as just an extra! Maybe put your wedding labels around them telling them they get a free Mets game where everyone can meet up again?

Re: Ok ladies, help me out here...I need favor ideas

What about the bride that did the yankees/bon jovi wedding her favors were great, plus you could probably get a lot of ideas from things she did, like the baseball ticket seating cards

Re: Ok ladies, help me out here...I need favor ideas

there must be a baseball/mets bottle opener to be had somewhere, if you're looking for something people might use.

i have to say though, i'm in love with the crackerjacks idea!

I know they also make pens that look like baseball bats. Maybe you can get those personalized?

Re: Ok ladies, help me out here...I need favor ideas

I like the crackerjack idea and I like the baseball card idea....if you could make baseball cards up with a pic of you and FH and put stats on the back like when you first started dating and the date you engaged and what not.

Re: Ok ladies, help me out here...I need favor ideas

What about the ball? Or you can get these cute "lunchpails" and put them on the table, closed or opened up, with your favors inside, maybe one at each end of a long table? The DJ could announce to open up the pail before the guests leave to get a surprise! Of course, I would go with the Yankees, NY Mets Bride . . . .

UGH, check out my album "Ideas for the Girls" for the pic . . . it won't fit!!!
