Favors...

I don't have a pic but I saw a beautiful favor I'd love to give out it is a candy dish. It is 10.25 each! Obviously I don't know how many I'd need but tops it would be 110 for each family/hopefully less) I have not cut corners on anythign and have spent TOO MUCH! She said she'd try and give me a discount but ugh it seems way to much!

How much are you ladies spending if you don't mind me asking? Or what are you giving out?

Anything for kids?

Re: Favors...

i'm spending $5 per couple on personalized playing cards. we're having about 200 guests so i can't afford to do 1 per couple. i didn't give any thought to the kids. i probably will have about 6-8 so maybe i'll get them coloring books.
i think the favors ur doin should be one per couple/family.

I'm giving out cookbooks of family recipes and pictures. If I have them done they are $10 each, I am considering making them myself so I save $ (I have access to a binding machine and a lamination machine at work).

I'm going to put one together and see if I like how it comes out and if it will really save me $.

I am also doing one per couple.

Re: Favors...

We are doing a set of 2 photo coasters. I paid under $1.00 for each set (they were on sale). I ordered 140 and I paid a grand total of $126. For the kids I ordered activity books (with crayons), placemats (that can be colored), a foam magnet that when it is put together is photo frame that is sahped like a wedding cake & a little box with a bride and groom on it from Oriental Trading. I also got card games from Michaels that were 2 for $1.00. I will probably put some candy in the box too. Each guest is also getting a little organza bag with Hershey Kisses in them.
