Okay I know I drive you all nuts but please help me!

Okay I know I'm an odd bride in most of your opinions, but I'm really going nuts trying to plan this whole thing. I've been greatful to all of you who have helped me out. could you please help me out again! This E-party thing is just driving me nuts and I really don't know what to do! I spent the whole day looking for favors and here are the ideas of what I got!

Okay I came up with some cute ideas for favors and I could use some opinions. Idea one - Yellow frisbees with smiley faces on it that read 'smile! we're getting married!'
Idea two- Take mini clay pots and put a small plant in them, with a ribon.
Idea three- small candles in small candle holders with two plastic swords crossing and a little tab that reads 'joe and bonnies E-party, blah blah blah'
Idea four take some cheap candies and fold a poem over them, staple them and glue two bells at the top. Theses are the ideas I have. I'm having a BBQ at south haven park. what do you all think?
I was also thinking about doing a scanver hunt. I need help! HELP!!!!!!!!!

I like the plant idea.. something they can keep and have for a while.

Re: Okay I know I drive you all nuts but please help me!

for our e-party we did bottle openers.
Simple and useful.

But you should do what you like. The frisbee fits the BBQ theme. Candle should be plain IMHO, because some people might not use it unless it fits every decor.

I too like the plant idea, but from what I have seen, I don't know that it is exactly you. I think the bottle openers that JPC1125 has would be something really nice that could go more with your theme- a little medieval, but can be very victorian (ie: romantic) too. Put a nice ribbon on it - or in a box and it is perfect!

The E-party really doesnt' have a theme except having fun and maybe nature. I figure that would be nice. I'm also going for dirt cheap too.

IMHO, a favor is not even needed at all!

I have never gottne a favor at an e-party, and did not have any favors at mine!

Ok...I'm a bit nutty too because I think the frisbee thing is awsome especially for an outdoor bbq thing. I could see all those smily face frisbees flying around!

Maybe you could make the plant small pots of various herbs. People could use them to cook with.

I thought of it because in medieval times brides carried bo-kays of herbs in order to drive the bad spirits away.

Or you could get flower bulbs and wrap them up in pretty organza bags or just small gift bags and make a tag with your names and wedding date on them

Just another idea.

I'm thinking about giving the frisbees to the kids and the plants for adults. And for Teen girls I can make the glitter stuff that people put on their skin. I bulb thing is a good idea too. I was thinking about hanging the frisbees on a tree that the kids could just pick themselves.
