Which do you like better...

Which do you like better...

for the Wedding favor? Now that we have the RH, I'm getting all these visions & ideas of everything else!

We decided to do Thanksgiving since it's going to be less than 2 weeks before the holiday. So for favors we want to do mini pies, these are the ideas that I'm going with, which do you like best?
We're DEF doing individual pies.

Individual pies in boxes- We'll tie a ribbon around the boxes and make them look pretty. They will be mini-pies, and they'll be on a table for everyone to pick up when they leave. We'll have an assortment of holiday pies- apple, pumpkin, blueberry, etc.

'Smushed Pie in a Mug' - We will get shot glasses (well actually probably something a little bigger than shot glasses) and have pies in the glasses (The Cup in Wantagh does this, it's called the 'Smushed Pie in a Mug). And again we'll have a variety of pies (pumpkin, apple, etc)

But then with the 'Smushed Pie in a Mug' idea we'd do it a few diff ways:
Either personalized glasses (the date engraved on the glasses) or just the date on the ribbons that will tie the cellophane. (that's one decision)

and the next: we'd either have each table be a different pie (the pumpkin pie table, the apple pie table, etc. and if we can't find enough pies, we'll double up) & that's the pie that gets brought out to the table at the end as favors OR just do it randomly and don't have each table be named a different pie, just have the shot glasses distributed randomly.

Sorry, so many choices lol

When I visited the Venetian Yacht Club, the BM suggested having pies as favors, and then I was thinking about The Cup's 'Smushed Pie in a Mug' and I was like hmm, why don't I do smushed pie in a mug!

i think the idea of pie in a mug is adorable, but i think the pie in a box would be more recognizable and holiday-ish, if that makes sense..

jmo though

i like the pie in a mug its cute, i wouldnt personalize the mug though maybe just do the ribbon instead, i feel like when you personalize stuff people may be less likely to use it afterwards

do you have a pic of this smushed pie in a mug?? i cannot picture it. i am sure it is nice, but i am just picturing something 'smushed' which isnt that nice.

I think i would prefer a pie in a cute box wrapped with a ribbon....

I googled images of 'Smushed Pie in a Mug' and the strangest pictures came up. So I don't have a pic to show.

But you know how like Fridays & Applebees do those mini desserts that come in little glasses? That's what it would look like. When it's in a mug it's just bigger. But we'd do it in a Fridays/Applebees sized glass (maybe slightly larger)

Here we go! It would look like these.

i think the individually boxed mini-pies would be much nicer and classier

I like the pie in the cup idea very cute, not sure about the personalized cup, maybe just do the ribbon

I think having an individual pie in a box would look really adorable, especially with a personalized ribbon wrapped around the box. I love the idea of the smushed pie in a cup, but I think having a mini pie in a box is more favor-ish and will look better. Such a cute idea!!!!!!!

I like the pie in the box- not crazy about smushed pie for a wedding favor. I dont think older people would get the smushed pie idea, but I think everyone would like the pie in a box!

I kind of like the smushed pie idea! And I love the different pies for each table...they can even double as place cards if you wanted to....

i like the individual pie in a box. but if you do the smushed pie in a cup thing i wouldnt engrave the cup because i wouldnt use something thats engraved with peoples names
