so this is my favor.. wine with mesh tulle and an art deco glass bottle stopper...

on the back will be the jordan almonds wrapped in regular tulle and personalized ribbon with our names and wedding date.

should i bother getting personalized wine lables?? or is it too tackyy and gaudy..cuz theres so much on it already... and ill have personalized ribbon on the back.???

honest opinions

Re: OPINIONS PLEASEE

it looks really nice!!!!!!.. I wanted to do wine alsoooo but coming from a traditional background my mom said no way esp since there will be alot of people that are older family ughhh .
I think just favor tags are FINEEEEEEEEEEEE. If you were doing water bottles, obv you would personalize it lol but you have so much stuff that its already pretty!
back to more favor hunting..

Re: OPINIONS PLEASEE

are favors cheaper online or they sell it in the stores for about the same? the thing I hate about online is you cantt really see how nice or how bad it ugh
I dunno if FH will make a trip with me to flushing..
I just googled foxs is it the one on northern blvd?

I think they look awesome!

Re: OPINIONS PLEASEE

yea its on northern... the favors are cheaper by a dollar or so... but then u have to factor in wrapping..

so btwn the wrapping ,ribbon and almonds its not worth it to get it online.

and if u pay cash in stores theyll waive tax

so online u have to factor in shipping and tax.

Re: OPINIONS PLEASEE

Re: OPINIONS PLEASEE

Re: OPINIONS PLEASEE

about that much lol.
I was gonna do one favor per guest... bc its so annoying figuring out how many people per family... I can do per couple, then i got people coming alone, kids, etc... how much are the average favors in foxs? lol like I know its hard to give an estimate but if the average favors are like 5-6 bucks im not gonna go lol +wrapping, etc.. and hwo much did you get it wrapped for? lol sorry for the questions

Re: OPINIONS PLEASEE

i got spoon rests there for another wedding. 5$ with wrapping. ive had a few ppl contact me after the wedding asking if i had any left over.

u can find for 3$ or so..but a nice favor = 5$ with all the wrapping

Re: OPINIONS PLEASEE

I wouldnt bother with it. It looks perfect the way it is

blondie24 Posted: Jan 27, 2010 06:02 PM

Re: OPINIONS PLEASEE

I wanted to get a spoon rest! Fh was like what r the people who come alone and are guys gonna do? like wth this favor thing has been to accommodate other people
I was thinking of the art deco thing...I saw it like a month ago but I wanted to do wine with it and couldnt have wine and I dont know how just the art deco bottle opener will be just by itself?
