Do you know where to get mini wine bottles? All I drink is white zin lol I think it would be cute to do
i gave bottles of wine for e-party. Just go to your local liquor stores, they work with you most of the time and give you a good price

Re: Favors???
I'm giving brownies with chocolate frosting and white chocolate 'laced' ontop
It was a tradition up until a few decades ago to give the groom's cake as a favor- it was a dark or rum cake with sweet frosting. A guest was encouraged to place it under their pillow to dream of the person they would marry!
Another cake tradition was the bride's cake- it was typically a ring cake (two cakes shaped like interlocking rings) and inside it were trinkets or slips of paper with symbols on them (much like mardi gras king cake or fortune cookies) and some sort of future event or situation would be explained through it...
I'm incorporating both of these traditions and typing up the meanings to attach to the favor box... to go along with my vintage theme
Edited for theme content.. sorry so long!
