We got 200 packets of wildflowers that had "Wildflowers from Our Wedding" on them and had them personalized with our names for $70. On the back was a short paragraph thanking the guest for sharing our joy and urging them to plant the seeds and to remember the hapiness of the day when the flowers bloom. The seeds made sense to me as we had a garden wedding and I teach botany (amongst other biology-related subjects). We also had matches done in our wedding colors and our names and the date of the wedding.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/i-wasnt-going-to-but-i-did#post-449912 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 07:52:55 +0000 sewing 449912@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I love bubbles..do the stick kind work as good as the bottle kind do? I love how much fancier the stick bubbles look, but I've heard the small wand makes it harder to blow out the bubbles</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/i-wasnt-going-to-but-i-did#post-449883 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 07:45:31 +0000 krissycake 449883@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>we're doing bubbles but I never realized they could be considered a favor...now it seems like we have tons of favors, lol! &nbsp;sweet!&nbsp;</p> <p>p.s.</p> <p>if anyone needs bubbles, i will probably have a ton left over after our big day...PM me if you are looking!</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/i-wasnt-going-to-but-i-did#post-449876 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 07:43:21 +0000 Jacqi 449876@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>yes, the bubbles will be great for the photo op, but I wouldn't call them favors. Keep the bubbles, but stick with not having favors too :)</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/i-wasnt-going-to-but-i-did#post-449865 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 07:39:42 +0000 Melissabegins 449865@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>eh, keep them.&nbsp; @ least it's 70 and a photo op, instead of 70 of little trinkets that are chucked and not making cute photos :O)&nbsp; I love bubbles, too.&nbsp; I throw out most favors too.. woops!&nbsp; Give me something useful like a screwdriver or bottle opener and i'll keep it.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/i-wasnt-going-to-but-i-did#post-449815 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 07:23:42 +0000 Mrs. Moonbaby 449815@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>hehehe... well, I must admit I'm mostly doing it for the photo-op :P .. besides, i really don't think anyone keeps wedding favors (i sure as heck never have, i usually just toss them after the wedding) and doing edible ones was out of the question. "bubbles! bubbles!! my Bubbles" :D lol</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/i-wasnt-going-to-but-i-did#post-448842 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 17:11:19 +0000 future mrs w 448842@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>These are cute but I agree with Proudpeacockbride. They will only be used that day and then tossed. Maybe you could spend the $70 on something that they'll keep for a while</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/i-wasnt-going-to-but-i-did#post-448612 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 15:21:57 +0000 texasmeredith 448612@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Cute!</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/i-wasnt-going-to-but-i-did#post-448606 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 15:19:32 +0000 ProudPeacockBride 448606@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I hate to BURST YOUR BUBBLE (hehe!<img src="http://boards.weddingbee.com/my-plugins/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-wink.gif" alt="Wink" title="Wink" />) but most people chuck these after an event! If your not going to do favors that's fine. But don't expect people to keep these and not throw them away on their way out of your venue! I've seen so many beautiful bubble-exit pics. I hope we can do that too! But don't go to a family member's home a month after your wedding and expect to see an empty bubble wand on their nic-nac shelf! (When I think "favor" I think something that will be kept for more than a day!)</p> <p>PLUS - if you have kids on your guest list - help the parents out by NOT letting little kids take these home! The liquid can stain or at least make a mess of their pretty party outfits and vehicle upholstry in the short time it takes to get them home! (Sorry, it's my "Mommy Voice" speaking!)</p>
