Favor help

I am having such an issue with favors... originally we were going to do wine and a cork but for a 'decent' wine we are going to end up spending about $13 per favor which I am not willing to do and FH doesn't want to give cheap wine.

So I have narrowed it down to these two favors, I love the 'salt & pepper shakers, but I like the spreaders because I am using calla lillies.

TIA

I gave this out at my sister's bridal shower. I put a pic of her and her fiance in the front and had it wrapped in cellophane with the personalized ribbon and candy almonds. It came out awesome everyone loved it and it was afforadable. It is a 4x6 album and hold 100 photos.

Hope this helps you

I like the pears, but it would be cute for the lillies as it's your theme.

Although the calla lillies match your theme, I honestly think it is one of those favors that will be put away and never taken back out. They may match on the day of your wedding, but they may never match anything your guest has. I'm sorry to be so blunt. If you really have it narrowed to just those two, then go with the shakers. Being solid silver and of subtle design, I think they'd be used (and appreciated) a lot more.

If your heart is set on calla lilies, how about these?

My personal favorite would be to create a custom packet containing cala lily seeds. It will inspire your guests to plant and have cala lilies of their own.

I definately want to steer clear of chocolate everyone is doing it..... i acutally thought about a seed pack and a little pail.. I think the look is adorable..... but i went to a wedding where they were left on the table and I would be pissed about that.
