Fall Brides..Are you giving 'Fall Themed' favors?

I was wondering how many Fall brides are doing Fall Themed favors? If not, what favors are you using?

Probably in the next couple of weeks I am going to order a sample of the 50ml bottle its 2.00 when you buy in bulk. I really wanted the 100ml but I can't afford it.

No fall themed favor for me. We're doing a CD that we're making for every couple and then pink/brown M&M's to every person.

If you promise not to tell...we are thinking of doing chocolate and caramel dripped POPCORN balls!! We would sprinkle them with nuts or coconut or sprinkles and wrap them up in pretty fall colored cellopane and tie our ribbons around them. Also we are putting a sticker on the back that says 'MIKE 'POPPED' THE QUESTION, AND MELISSA SAID YES!!!' I really like the maple syrup idea too though...I wanted candy apples but they were WAY too much

Nope! Our favor will be an ice cream scoop and something else that we're not sure of yet.

We were thinking about doing those 'Fall in love' coaster sets, but we weren't sure how many people would use them. Then we were thinking some kind of chocolate favor. I like the candy apples, but I think alot of his family wouldn't eat them.

We didn't do a fall theme, but a 'leaf' theme.
DH's last name in Chinese just happens to mean 'leaf', and we just got married over Columbus day weekend, so it fell nicely into the fall weather. His cousin is a pastry chef at LeCirque, so to cut costs, we had the RH give us the included wedding cake, but asked that we get a very basic design... no flowers or frillies. Then, our cousin made and airbrushed leaves made of sugar with gold and rustic colored food coloring at her job.

For our favors, I bought clear snap-lock jars from a wholesaler on ebay (the kind you'd put spices in), and put in whole-leaf pyramid teabags from Harney & Sons (ordered bulk online). Then DH printed out clear labels that said our names and 'The Perfect Blend' with the date on the bottom. Each jar was tied with two-tone ribbon from May Arts (well-known brand to scrapbookers)... which was rust on one side, sage on the other... colors of my BMs' two gowns.
