Maybe a donation to something you are passionate about.

We are doing a supercool Photobooth from Partybooth.com
I figure most people dont care about the favors... and so I thought and thought about what they might care about.. and I came up with the pictures of themselves!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FM me if you are interested in details!

We did Irish keychains inside an indian pouch (DH is irish and I'm indian), and they doubled as our placecards.

Another idea could be a chocolate menu. We had one for every other place setting.

Maybe you could do a miniature wine bottle or regular sized wine bottles or cider for each couple. . and they can create personalized labels.

Or fans -- since ur date is in August. -- Silk, Handpainted, Paper, Bamboo, Chinese, Vintage the possibilities are endless.

Lanterns with imprints on the outside -- not candles but lanterns. They can hang or sit on the table

Seeds, Seed Cones, Trees -- all plantable for a 'Green Wedding' or just a cool favor idea.

Charitable Donations always in fashion.

Coffee or Tea favors (I don't know if that is in your 'No Food' ban)

How about:

1. A bottle of wine or champagne
2. A cocktail shaker [sort of a kitchen thing but useful]
3. Movie tickets [I think costco has a bulk tickets deal]
4. A silver picture frame [ I got a great one at a wedding one that I keep one of our epics in]

Go to a local liquor store and ask them if they'd give you a discount if you bought in bulk.

I saw this cute idea on another website, the bride and groom had small envelopes at each place setting with a cute saying in calligraphy on the outside and inside they were scratch off lottery tickets.

How about a small bamboo plant? Bamboo symbolizes luck I think. My cousin gave these out at hers and they are so cute!

You could buy small glass vases from IKEA or something and then these bamboo plants from chinatown.
