We're definitely getting cigars... FH just doesn't know it yet! He'll find out at the wedding.



Where ar eyou getting those form and how do you plan to set it up! Are you getting a roller?



Not sure about having the roller there yet. I am getting them from the Little Cigar Factory. I'll bring it to FH when I drop off the rest of the stuff and just tell them when to bring the cigars out.

A wish bowl is a bowl/vase/ type thing that you put on the 'gift table' at the reception. You leave small pieces of paper and some pens where people can write wedding wishes to you. Your guests put it in the bowl and you are supposed to read them after the wedding. It is supposed to replace the guest sign in book but I dont think a lot of people know what it is and EVERYONE wouldnt fill them out so we are doing both.

'We DO' letter are just letters that you paint that say 'We Do' and you can put them around your cake or on the 'gift table'
