Hmm... I wanted to get started looking early and I have a lot of ideas swarming around in my head, but nothing that I really want. What are you guys doing or heard of?

We are very likely doing a donation to the Make A Wish Foundation....along with a small box or bag of candy.
Edited to add a pic of what I want to do with the candy....courtesy of Martha Stewart!
Mikasa sunflower bowls that comes with a candle inside-they can hold candles, be a candy dish etc, they are a nice size!

Re: What are your favors?
I'm doing the CD favors and putting them in an organza baggie. An aunt of mine makes favors, and she wants to give me some as a gift. I didnt think I need another one, but since it's free, I'll see what she has

Re: What are your favors?
Thanks for the ideas! I'm thinking about doing the cd favors, are you putting a label on them? And how do you do that? I was going to do CD favors in addition to other ones...

Yes, you know the ones that are white and fit perfectly on the cd itself? I'm going to have our engagement pic on that. Plus I'll make a jewel slim case w/more engagement photos. Then it'll be encased in the baggie

One of these per couple, plus a mini bottle of Korble Champagne for everyone!
Where did people get their Mikasa favors? Online or at a store?

I'm making white chocolate heart boxes with the silouhette of a bride and groom on the cover. Inside I'm filling them with three milk chocolate truffles. Here is a pic. of something similar:
I'm using the Mikasa bottle stoppers called Venus. They are the crystal hearts.
I haven't purchased yet but I will by them from either www.receptionfavors.com or www.wholesalefavors.com. They have the cheapest prices so I'll see which is the cheapest between those two.

I'm doing CD favors too. Office Max has good prices for labels if you need them.

Re: What are your favors?
I am half way with my favors. I finished today with putting the flower stickers to the tins. Here is how they look, I still have to decide if I am going to put mints or almonds inside, the second pictures is from a website showing how they look with almonds.
We're going with white picture frames. They come in different sizes-3x5, 4x6, 5x7 and 8x10. We're giving the 8x10 to close family and as an extra gift to our bridal party.
