Update: my plantable butterfly paper favors are in! (w. pic)
We were planning to do tortuga mini rum cakes for favors. Love the taste and they went with our semi-beachy theme, but they were a lil pricey for so many ppl. That didnt really matter all that much, but we just ended up stumbling on something that I really love. Well mom found it.
Butterflies are special to me bc they have kind of represented the memory of my father who passed in 04. We found lots of sites with butterfly favors and seeds to plant (that will grow flowers that attract butterflies) and plantable seed paper shaped like butterflies and decided to go with the latter, in blue plantable paper and brown ribbon (our colors, tho they come in others). I love the idea! It comes with instructions, but we're going to print our own message too explaining that butterflies represent hope and new beginnings, and for them to plant the paper and flowers will bloom that attract butterflies.
Swallowtail farms website- Only like $43 for set of 25.
Ordered...another thing to check off list!!! ---- UPDATE: THEY'RE ALREADY HERE. YAY. AND SO CUTE! ATTACHING PICS. (pink one is pic off website). REST ARE IN OUR COLORS...

I love this idea and that you are carrying on the memory of your father.

They look really pretty ! I love anything with butterflies !!
Re: changed our favor idea, what do you think? butterflies (w/ pic)
I think that would be one of the very best favors I ever got! I'm kinda teary-eyed just reading what you wrote and the fact that it means something to you would mean so much more to me. Great choice!
