Okay what we were gonna do first was fill our giant beer mug favors with peanuts/cracker jack but then decided against it. We came up with the idea of the placecards being tickets to the 'game' and attaching small clear favor bags of peanuts or cracker jack (every other bag I guess so it doesn't get too crowded on that table).
But who doesn't love the vintage Cracker Jack boxes!!!! Would it be nuts to do all cracker jack boxes at the placecard table?! But then where do the peanuts go?
You can be honest....is it just classier and less silly to go with the clear bags and forget the boxes? I just loved the idea of everyone getting their own box and prize!

TEEHEE You rock, bro!!!
I'm just concerned it might not look all that classy...how do I classy-up these boxes without it looking like some 9 year old's birthday party?

you could put them in organza bags!!
just kidding....
i think they'd be cute exactly as they are. after all, you have a lot of other things in your theme that are very classy and formal (dress colors, etc).

Hey, I thought of bags too! I dunno....I still feel like the box doesn't look 'wedding' enough ya know what I mean? I love that they'll each get a box and a prize...but like I said...I really don't want it to look like a bday party!

What, having them as part of your awesome looking wedding isn't classy enough? Seriously, you've got a lot of great classy things already there, and the wedding has to be just as much about you/FH and your personalities as it does tradition.
i'm just saying.

I think it's a great idea!!
but if you wanted to do the bags why not see if you can get a label made to look like the cracker jack box and incorporate your names? (like they do the Hershey bars....)
