wedding favours?

[lynne192]

we went to one recently where the bride had made home made fudge and it was reeeally tasty! They were tied in cellophane(sp?) bags with pink ribbon and a tag that said "And they all lived happily ever after" it was mega sweet!

thats brilliant my MIL makes the best tablet in the world no joke she has to make it almost every day because the demand is that high, she is a chef but everyone loves her tablet, might ask her to make me loads of it and cut it into heart shapes and put two in each little wrap and then give that as a favour would save me a fortune because can get cellop wrap for 50p per meter at my local card and balloon shop, and thier ribbon is 5p per meter so can get loads of different colours might actually try it out and see what it looks like have some left over cello wrap from my son's birthday party i made up little gift cones full of millions also been thinking maybe make salt dough and make love hearts out of them paint them and write our initals on them and our wedding date? would set me back the paint, salt, flour and some lovely ribbon might be pretty cheap?

definately! In fact, hers was tablet, not fudge lol, it looked really pretty and everyone was eating it well into the evening, the kids loved it and everyone commented how good it was and it didn't cost much at all I don't think, it's special too when it's homemade!

thats me sorted then lol.. wonder if can get wee heart molds to put them into so don't need to try and cut them and end up with crums

Heart Molds

Or how about making Phone/Handbag charms for the ladies - these prices are for ready made, but they could be made a lot cheaper by buying the idividual components

And personalised cufflinks for the men ... buy the cufflink blanks:

and make the fronts:

perhaps something like this with shiny pennies with your marriage year on them:

or you could use those glass flower arranging beads in your wedding colours

Ive seen the Breast Cancer seed strips, i think they are lovely as a charity favour

We arent going OTT with anything, just a simple organza bag with "just married" chocolates inside and wedding cake bubbles, then i am doing individual goodie bags for the children since i have 20 coming

We had little boxes with some chocolate in, and all the children had a present that I chose especially for them and wrapped up in wedding wrapping paper in our colour scheme. xx

They've got some nice Wedding Day colouring books for children on ebay ... it's one way to keep the slightly older ones entertained at the table

I done gift boxes for the kids as well. Crayons, little toys, bubbles, hair bits for the girls. Some sweets. My couz had a baby unexpectally so I had to make one up for her. Put a dummy, rattle a bow in it.

Here is one of my coasters
Its taken on a bed spread. It sat in a gold holder with 5 more
I wrapped them in tissue paper. Some were like this one, some were with reversed colours
