We got a package of eight placecard frames for $6, one per couple. Less then $1 per couple. The frame can be used later to hold our wedding picture.

Re: FAVORS...how much to spend and what????
We are giving these ornaments as favors at my bridal shower (I''m totally involved with planning it...long story). They are real leaves that have been dipped in 24 karat gold...some have a silver finish on them as well. With the discount, they were around $9 or $10 a piece...(I can''t remember exactly).
I forgot to add that for our wedding we''re doing a donation to a local animal rescue organization.

Re: FAVORS...how much to spend and what????
I originally wasn''t going to give any out. I was on the Anthropologie.com site and found these little filagrie votive boxes on sale. They were originally $24 each and I got them for $4. I am giving them one per couple. I am going to put tealights in them so they will be glowing the whole reception. Then I ordered gift tags from Bella Terra.net and I am putting them on with chocolate brown ribbon. They are such pretty little keepsakes...

Re: FAVORS...how much to spend and what????
i had a 'beach theme' wedding so i made sand dollar ornaments. They were simple to make and cost under 2.00 for each one. I have one out to each person in an organza drawstring bag that i got on ebay for about .17 cents each. I also put a card in each bag that tells about the legend of the sand dollar and of what exactly it is (made them on the computer) As an extra, I made little bags of chocolates (from a mold) that were shaped as sea shells w/ jordan almonds. I didn''t spend too much and had help making everything.

Re: FAVORS...how much to spend and what????
I was just thinking about that the other night. I know I want each person to get a picture frame that we are doubling as p[lace card holders, and each person is getting a deck of personalized playing cards, but I want them to have one more thing, but I have no idea

Re: FAVORS...how much to spend and what????
Mine will cost about $1pp. I bought little emobssed ivory boxes from Patchogue Floral Fantasy. I also got personalized ribbons made with our name and date on them. Then...I ordered lables that go on the hershey nuggests with our names and date on them (from ebay). I will put the labels on the candy...put about 6 of them in the little box and tie it up with the personalized ribbon.
I will give one to each person...and since it''s just chocolate, if they don''t like it, they can give it away.

Every person or couple gets one b/c they come in a box of three. They are by Lenox
And the small clear vases with the white flowers is what we are giving for our engagement party next weekend
I''m doing vases, one per couple. They''re glass vases with a heart on the side. I found them at Wal-Mart for $1.50 each. I plan on grouping them in the center of the table around a candle for my center piece.

We did Placecard frames and heart shaped wine stoppers and then we gave Krispy Kremes (2 pack) and Vanity Newsdays when they were leaving. I went a little crazy Well, you only live once, right?
Whats a vanity Newsday?? And how much does the Krispy Kreme come to each? FH and I love KK, and would love to have them as part of our favors if they were affordable

Instead of favors, I''m doing a donation to a childrens hospital.
