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
The hockey pucks are a great idea. They tell the story of you guys. So cute

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.
I'm doing this for my engagement party. I'm Haitian.
Whoot Whoot My Haitian Fam!!! what DJ are you using???
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.
I met Silver fox's DJ at a WM mixers and I liked him. Thats all i know!!! lol

Ahh another 2012 bride crashing..sorry ladies!
We are actually not doing favors, we are going to do a donation to the American Cancer Society, being that both of our moms have had cancer and are in remission..:) and also since FH is a huge fan of the Rangers, he wants to donate to their charity which is Garden of Dreams. I thought that was a nice idea.
We are doing a donation favor as well but for Parkinson's disease and for a police oriented fund.

Re: Favors!
I kind of wanted to give out tiny boxes of fancy chocolate truffles. I kind of have a garden-y theme though so I was thinking those little seed tins that are personalized and FH wants to put like little flower pots of cookie bouquets. Like each couple could get a few cookies, they are super cute! I'll have to price it out though. My favorite favor I ever got though was a little shopping bag with a bagel, personalized coffee bags and jams for the next morning.

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!
I thought of a Coquito too! Now I'm craving some... FH got me addicted.
