CD Favors

I would love to have CDs as favors for our wedding, but we do not have a CD burner

Do any of you ladies know of companies that will do this, and if its still affordable that way?
Thanks!

Re: CD Favors

I am sure a friend has one - ask around - if you buy all the supplies, it doesn't take that long.

Re: CD Favors

Look in the back of your bridal magazines. Tons of companies do this! I just sent away for a sample from one of the companies - just can't remember which one right now

Good Luck!!!

Re: CD Favors

How long does it take to burn a CD? One of my BMs has a computer w. a burner, but I dont want to tie her up forever. The prices that I have seen for these to be done professionally are higher that I want to go (or than FH will let me go

) I will probably offer her some money plus buy the materials, it looks like it will still be cheaper.

Re: CD Favors

Even if you do it on MAX speed, they may take a while depending on how many you want to make.
We want about 125, and we're doing a little at a time, a few a day.
Did she offer? If so, then she already knows how long it takes, and is willing.

Re: CD Favors

With my CD Burner, it took about 2 minutes a cd, that is just burning them. It also depends on what type of computer your friend has, b/c before I got my new one - 30 min. PER CD. So definately ask her for the type of system she has, but if it is up to speed you can get about 30 done in a little over an hour.
