We rented a card box treasure chest from floral fantasy land in patchogue. It was worth it, I'm not crafty enough to make one myself. It was very pretty.

We used a card box that I picked up at Michael's. My mom hot glued a ribbon around the seam so that no one could open it during the reception. We took the ribbon off in order to take the cards out and now I'm going to use the box to hold wedding keepsakes.

HTH!

We bought a glass card box. I think its nice and different but definately a waste of money. It's one of those wedding things we bought becuase we were caught up in the moment. I saved like $20 by buying it on Ebay.

My MIL made this cake out of hat boxes and it came out gorgeous. One of my girlfriends is getting married in a few months and she begged me to borrow it. I told my MIL that we should rent it out....
