well i thought it might be nice to share some of our thoughts bout the worst wedding favors we received or wedding favors we received but didn' really appreciate.....
disclaimer: not done to make anyone feel bad.. but to be helpful to us all as we make decisions on wht to use as favors so that we're not wasting money..
i'll start!!
i got a mug.. that said L & J's wedding.. it was nice. i think my friend said she paid bout $5-8 a piece for them..white with that gold trim round the top that gets super hot ni the microwave so u can't drink whatever is in it for 20 minutes after u take it out or u'll burn u'r lips...
yeah.. so i put this mug on my baker rack in my kitchen.. it was there for bout 3 months.. when i thought to myself.. why ON EARTH am i keeping this? i'm not gonna drink out of it.. it's not a heirloom.. it's not of high importance... oh it's got to go!! lol.. and out it went..
so i'm opposed to mugs..
2. i got some coasters.. they're glass and they say love.. and i LOVE them. I actually use them on my glass table and they look great..
so i think coasters are cool.

be careful girls, for example there are girls on here who are doing mugs as favors. I see the point of this thread and understand just some people might get hurt by what is said.
Thanks Denise....I think you knew I was doing mugs (no gold trim though) and personally I love them. So like Denise stated something someone HATES can be something someone really likes. I don't care what anyone says I'm happy with my favor!
yup you and other person are doing mugs and i thought of that

Re: the worst wedding favor..
Here's a warning to the people doing CD favors. I think that is an awesome and very personal idea for favors, BUT - we were at a wedding two weeks ago where the B&G did this, only they used they really cheap CDs and cheap labels. We didn't notice until we put the CD in our car and it got stuck!!!!! So, a word to the wise, don't buy the cheapest labels and discs, b/c it can be a real pain in the butt!!! I'd tell you the brand (FH is big into electronics and things like this so he is the one who identified the reason for the screw up as the quality of the disc) but we STILL haven't gotten it out of the CD player!

Re: the worst wedding favor..
I have to say, I've rarely gotten a favor I really didn't like...My favorite would have to be photo coasters, those are great. But, I did get a set of coasters that were possibly the ugliest things I've ever seen...they were by limoges, and I can't imagine what they cost, but they were blue and gold, and had a picture of what looked like Medusa in the center...god, they were awful... my favorite in general though, I would say are candles and picture frames...I can always use more of them...
