Rather than have a cigar roller, we're putting cellophaned cigars in a jar. I was just going to do a few, but I decided to order 20 GOOD cigars for people who KNOW cigars, and now I just ordered 45 more cigars (about a buck each) for those who will just smoke them or take one because they're there. So, I have a total of 65 cigars now for 130 guests, which I think is fine. They won't have our names on them, so they're not the 'favor' and they're only being displayed after the cake is cut. Plus, guests can't smoke inside, so they have to go out to smoke them on the beach deck, so not everyone will want to do that.
Anyone who wants to do this, I ordered from jrcigar.com. And I'm arranging them in a glass jar and putting a stand next to the jar with the 'Cigar Menu' next to it. Here's our cigar menu!
Cigar Menu Compliments of the Bride and Groom!
Fonseca - handmade in the Dominican Republic - medium to full bodied
Romeo y Julieta - handmade in the Dominican Republic - medium bodied - nutty flavor with hints of cedar and coffee
Excalibur - handmade in Honduras - medium to full bodied
JR Alternative to Hoyo Rothschild - Cuban-style handmade cigar - full bodied
Consuegra - handmade segundo - mild cigar - perfect for a beginner!

Re: Our Cigar Menu!
That's SUCH a great alternative to the cigar roller. FH and I REALLY wanted to have one but our family and friends all thought it was too elitist, lol. I hope you don't mind if I steal your idea!

I posted it to share it with all of you so you guys can use what I found out! I knew NOTHING about cigars, but this apparently is a perfect assortment of cigars, for about $100. .
Go for it and enjoy!

This is a GREAT idea!!! We had a cigar roller at our reception and I have to say everyone LOVED it. They couldn't roll the cigars fast enough...even the women were smoking them lol.
