We're doing the same thing except were donating to diabetes because FH's father died from complications of the disease. And also my mom has diabetes. Plus everyone knows someone with diabetes. I just thought it would be nice to honor his father....

A lot of brides do that now especially if someone they know has delt with a serious sickness. The last few weddings we went to did donations. I think people find that to be a beautiful gesture

make sure to let the guests know somehow that a donation has been made. I liked the 'cancer braclet' idea. or just a simple note card stating where the donation has been made

Re: Let me know what you think PLEASE
not my cup of tea - JMO i donate a lot of money all through the year, but i just dont feel that my wedding is the time or place for it - FOR ME, not saying it is wrong for anyone else and i don't mean to offend anyone
to me, the favors are a way of saying thank you to the guests
