help with ideas for favor

My mom and I are doing my favors. So far we are doing mugs with hot cocoa packets wrapped in tule with tags that say our date and names on one side and 'and they lived happily ever after' on the other side.
I need IDEAS for anything else to put in the mug (i.e, baci, fortune cookie, biscotti, marshmellows OR any other ideas)
THANK YOU ALL!!!!!

that's such a cute idea!!!

i love the marshmallow idea!!! They do make gourmet marshmallows - maybe one per mug??? They are kinda biggish...

Or what about a chocolate covered pretzel rod? One per again....

I really love the idea of the chocolate covered spoon.

Or even my mom makes these great chocolate covered pretzals with sprinkles that are so fun.

The biscotti is also a great idea!

Is it ok to make the pretzels or spoons and individually wrap them ourselves? Some folks I asked at work said they'd wonder who touched it.

then they wouldn't eat it and who cares? that's nasty that they'd wonder who touched it...come on!!!!

i'm having homemade chocolate in my favor and if anyone's 'concerned who touched it - they can not eat it and i don't care.

You know I have heard people say all kinds of crazy things....especially since I entered this world of wedding planning.

that definitely ranks up there!!! I'd rather know you & your mom packaged something than God knows who packed something from Godiva - ya know??

You just earned yourself a mug favor. LOL.
But really how many things should I put in this mug besides the hot cocoa?

Re: help with ideas for favor

totally your call - however much it takes for you to love the look of it!

If you don't want to put too much in it - you can put all kinds of 'stuffing' stuff on the bottom to make it look more full...

My wedding day favors were the 'white barn vases' from Ikea - they were pretty reasonable $1.99. I bought a whole bunch of them, as each is different and gave them as favors. Everyone loved them. You may want to check Ikea out for some ideas.
