HELP! need fast favors!

i'm the worst MOH ever...well not really, considering i didn't realize i was putting together and funding the entire bridal shower for my bff in DC.

her shower is next weekend and i need to find decent favors like yesterday....any ideas???? i went to party city and they weren't great and they were super expensive for pretty typical stuff. most places online probably won't deliver in enough time. maybe edible?

i know it's my own fault for putting it off until this week, but between my own wedding planning, work and getting zero help from anyone while doing this from afar i just couldn't get to it.

any ideas or leads you can give me are greatly appreciated

How many do you need?

I received a really cute insulated lunch bag from my best friend's bridal shower and I'm pretty sure her aunt bought it from a vendor on canal street (or close to it) in NYC.

I think they were like $5 each.

Good Luck!

I used them for our e-party - loveee em! We got little oil bottles and they were like $4 each or something and come in a cute box that we just popped a ribbon on!

I wanna do this but only found one place in the price range. Any other ideas of a store locally i can go to (or order online i guess).

Help!

Your not a bad MOH, it's really nice your freaking out and rushing to get it done

What kinds of favors are you looking for and what kind of edible favors?

Where in DC????


What if you got individual cupcakes from Georgetown Cupcake and put a thank you tag on the box?

my best friend is obsessed with hand sanitizer, so for her shower I bought sanitizer from bath and Body Works, and put them in a bag with a cute tag...also made choc covered pretzels...

OK, we can find you something between now and then. What kind of a favor are you looking for and how price point? Is there a 'theme' to the shower?

The shower is going to be at a BM's house in Van Ness/UDC area, so that's not a bad idea (i suggested to another BM that maybe we should get cupcakes from them instead of doing a cake, but i was shot down)....i even debated bringing Crumbs down with me in addition to all the liquor i'm gonna' drive down with ( that i don't get pulled over!)....

Ah you will be so close to where I live (Woodley Park)

I think Cupcake, because you can basically order them and then just pick them up when you get here

orrrrr

cute things like bubble bath with a tag or something?

there is no real theme other than 'appropriate day time drinking' and 'lets see what nicole has thrown together from 5 hours away with little help' (captain bitter pants i know).

the bachelorette party is that night and it's going to be all wine themed. i was trying to come up with alcohol based favors (seriously, that's how big of a drinker she and her FH are) - i even looked into little bottles of champagne and all the wine stoppers i came across weren't so great. i'm just getting frustrated.
