Scratch Off Tickets..... Good or Bad?

I was thinking at my wedding, to give everyone scratch off tickets as the favor... I thought his would be a fun thing to do... especially i someone winns..... (one out of 100 is bound to win something good) and my mother in law said, i shoudl just keep my favor and give nothing.


How does everyone feel about this?

I love it. (because that is what we are doing). We are getting married on 07/07/07 - so we are giving Lucky Seven scratch off tickets.

But we are also giving custom M&M (Tami & Phil; 07/07/07) in our colors.

I always thought it was fun but some people told me they thought it was tacky when I mentioned doing it

We aren't doing it but I think it's a really good idea especially since my family likes to gamble and gives out those scratch offs for all the birthdays.

my friend did these at her wedding last year and they were a big hit. The table I was at agreed that if any of us won something we would split it evenly. One guy won $1 so we each got 12 and 1/2 cents! It was kind of fun because it broke the ice at the start of the wedding...we were OOTers and didn't know a lot of people attending.

My friend did it at her wedding a few years ago and it was a great ice breaker. There were a few extras at our table and we won $16! It was nice because they had a head table and one of the BMs boyfriends who I didn't know well was at our table so we had something automatically to talk about.

The bride used little vellum envelopes and got brand new pennies from the year of her wedding to enclose to scratch off the tickets with.
