For my favors I wanna make Kremas (it's a Haitian alcholic drink. FH is Haitian) The Kremas will be in a vintage glass bottle that I will bedazzle with pearls, lace and whatever else lol.
Very cute idea! What is in the drink?
Jassy it's a creamy alcoholic drink made with condensed milk, cream of coconut, nutmeg, and rum (those are the basic main ingredients but there are others). It's really good.
Mmm sounds yummy! I love coconut. The ingredients remind me a of a latin drink Coquito. Its also creamy andchas coconut and rum!

Were doing a donation to autism speaks, since were both in that field. We might also do an edible favor with a little note about the donation.

We are doing a candy bar (and also adding homemade white choc.covered oreos., choc&sprinkle covered marshmallows, some other ideas from pinterest to it) with take-away boxes from oriental trading, and I also want to make a donation to the Michael J. Fox Foundation because it's really important to our family.

Re: Favors!
Our placecards are actually custom hockey pucks since FH has played hockey since he was little and when we first met we both had an extra ticket to a Ranger game on each other b-days. We joke how the Rangers brought us together On one side it says official wedding hockey puck with two sticks and a heart with our names and wedding date. The other side has the persons name and table.
plus we are doing a photobooth and getting the frames for that.
I thought we needed to have an actual favor on the tables but FH thinks that enough

i love those!!! FH makes fun of me for my love of hockey....Idk, maybe it's a long island thing, but he just can't get into it - he doesn't think they need to fight so much I tried to tell him about the problem with signing a goalie for 7 years and he totally zoned out ha!

I'm not sure who I'm using yet. At first I wasn't going to get a Dj because FH is a Dj so are 2 of his brothers so I was going to have his brother do it. However, I want for his brother to also enjoy the wedding and reception. Also he's not always dependable and I don't want him to have to worry about carrying equipment.
I haven't really started shopping around for Dj quotes yet because I'm not sure who I would go with if I did decide to get a Dj because they definitely have to play more kompa than anything else. I love kompa.
Who are you going with? Any ideas who I should contact? I did meet with someone from Sound Connection and the quote he gave me wasn't bad it included ceremony music and the lights with our names on the floor. I don't want too much light because FH and I are so used to going to the club we want the wedding to def be more elegant but fun of course.

If they didn't fight it wouldn't be hockey FH has no problem with a team signing a goalie for 7 years as long as it's not the Rangers

We plan to get some use out of our photobooth and use that as our favor. Im going to by photo strip frames and place 1 at each table setting. A lil note will be inside saying to plz visit the photobooth and use this frame for your picture.
We might also do something edible if its in the budget.
