Our candy buffet is part of our favor and we are having personalized cake boxes filled with mini chocolate cakes. I figured giving an actual item would end up in the garbage or in a drawer somewhere

We are having Cinderella theme wine stoppers and also photo favors (pictures of the guests taken that night) and they can choose from a bunch of different frame, keychains, magnets to display the picture in. It’s totally me I’m picture crazy

I'm thinking about doing the mini (7 oz) coronas in some kind of bucket with a label with our names and wedding date on it wrapped in cellophane. The wedding is in August and I figured a lot of ppl would like it and think its unique
That's so cute!! I think we're doing a personalized Jones Soda Bottle (that'll be my last name) and make a Susan G Komen donation in everyone's name. Plus we have the candy buffet that everyone can take home in little cellophane bags so they'll have that too.

I actually love the Jones idea! I might look into that! We will do donations to two charities close to our hearts. (I lost my first FH 4 years ago and my current FH lost his wife), a candy bar/buffet, and a small box of Tate's cookies.

That is such a beautiful idea.
I'm going to do wine. We're getting married by Giorgio's, which is near all the vineyards. I want to get it from a local winery.

AHH!! My FILS went to a wedding this weekend and they got a bagel favor! They LOVED it! I think its a fab idea. Waking up after a few drinks, who doesn't want a bagel!

I want to do a donation, but FH doesn't like that idea. He says we MUST give out favors and that people will be mad if they don't get one. Apparently receiving a stupid trinket that will end up in the garbage or in your stomach is more important than saving dying children's lives. I will get my way....
We have a similar scenario; my family is Italian and VERY into those gaudy favors and they will be personally insulted if we don't give them something. We're going to do favors, but then make a donation with some of our wedding money. We only feel right to somehow give to those in need after all the indulgence. It doesn't need to be in honor of the guests though.
