Favor Poll
I was just wondering...If you were the guest at a wedding, what would you prefer as a favor?1) A bottle of Beringer wine
2) Personalized CD with Bride
& Groom's fave songs
I would appreciate your input on this. My fiance loves the wine idea...I do too, but think the CD thing is so cool........

Re: Favor Poll
They are both nice gifts. I was going to give wine as a favor, but I ended up changing my mind and decided to go with a donation (which was my first choice).I think the cd is definitely more personal.

I vote for the CD.People have different tastes in wine, I almost never like the wine given as a favor, and I'm sure everyone will like the music.

I was going to do the CDs, but everyone is giving it for favors for all kinds of parties now, Sweet 16s, engagement and of course weddings and I thought it was getting a little played out. I am going with a full bottle of wine.

Re: Favor Poll
look at it this way. Most older couples dont have a CD player. Maybe you could split it up. The tables that sit the older guests put wine and the ones where you know people have CD players, put CDs. Just a suggestion

Re: Favor Poll
I vote for wine or sparkling cider perhaps, not everyone has the same taste in wine, but then again not everyone has the same taste in music either.

Re: Favor Poll
I vote for CDs since I think its a personal item and its a great momento of the day. I don't like overly used items either but you can make your CD very appropriate and elegant by the songs you use as well as the design of the cover.I find that unless the wedding is at a winery or that wine is being served during the meal or the couple made it themsleves, the wine is sort of unassociated which I don't like.
Both are very nice options but if you can't decided - CD favors are very cheap to make - maybe you can give both.

Re: Favor Poll
I think the wine is a great idea. We are using wine as our favors and having a label made with our names and wedding date.

Re: Favor Poll
I would want wine, but you should take into coinsideration people who cannot drink wine for whatever reason.I don't really like the sappy wedding/love songs.

Re: Favor Poll
I really like both ideas...but have had a couple of problems with CD favors. I have received 5 of them over time, 3 of which skipped throughout the CD. I wouldn't even know the solution to that problem, although I think CDs are a wonderful and personal gift. The covers each made were so unique, as well as the song selections.

Re: Favor Poll
I like the CD, altough I'm not a wine drinker. I think most people would get more use out of a cd.

Wine. I like the CD idea but I doubt all of my guests will like the same music we do. I am making up special CDs for our parents of all the special wedding songs we picked though.
