Wedding Favors

Or wedding was in the US. . . so we did little bags with small pieces of Dairy Milk and some mints. . . along with a small photo of us we had printed inexpensively at Costco. . .

I know this thread is a bit old, but I thought I'd add mine in anyway because I absolutely love it.  My fiance has designed the invite, response card and everything so he's designed a little card matching the invites which says "A donation has been made on behalf of our friends and family to [insert whichever charity we decide on here]"  which will be placed at each table setting.  I've never kept a wedding favor and I love the idea of donating the money we'd spend on them to a better cause than just filling up a trash can.  I read this idea years ago and have always wanted to do it.

What a fantastic idea. Bravo!

We only had 8 people at our wedding, since his family couldn't come to the States.  But we gave little sand castles with tealight candles inside and a tag on that says "Our fairy tale comes true".  Everyone loved them, and I got a few extra to give to his family here.  We were on a tight budget and we planned it really fast, so we just found something online and ordered them.

We have thousands of them and are trying to fill up a huge container.

Whoever gets married first will use them as a wedding favor, probably in something like this: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=sr_gallery_12&listing_id=13822992
