Hi again...We are brand new to this site....I left it out of my last message, but also, did anyone have any amazing wedding favors that they were just crazy about?? I have seen so many different favors, but they seem to just repeat themselves....Boring!!! .I am looking for something unique, but still classy..any ideas?

I love the Godiva boxes and cake-shaped chocolate! I WANT THEM! I wonder how $$$$ they'll be...

Pictures in my review... I had 3 favors, but the main one was full size bottles of Pugliese. They were a huge hit! You can never go wrong with an edible favor, and those Godiva cakes are awesome (we gave out Lindt truffles as well).

Donations are also great...

We are doing crome pepper mills. They are 8 inces high, the top is a salt shaker and the botter is a pepper mill.

We're making a donation to the Boston Children's Hospital. FH and I live in Boston, and his family is very involved with Children's Hospital.

We also thought that most of the favors we usually see are boring, and half of them get left at tables. I'm not particularly creative, so we figured we might as well use the $ we would have spent on favors to do something worthwhile for others.

We'll be having a printed card at each place setting that says, 'A donation has been made in honor of our wedding guests to the Children's Hospital of Boston.' There's also some information on the fund to which we're donating the money (Stem cell research).

HTH!

Re: Whos got the best favors??

Okay ladies, here's the scoop... They are coming out on 4/17. They are $9.50 each and they are sold in sets of 4. there are two flavors available: Milk Chocolate with Dark Chocolate Ganache and White Chocolate with Hazelnut Praline. I am going to get both and split them for the guests so they can decide which flavor they like best.
