    Because we are having a DW and I didn't want to lug favors to Aruba, the Fi and I just booked a private charter boat for a sunset cruise for our friends and family!  The boat fits 60 people, its open bar & includes snacks!  We'll have 2 snorkeling stops and 3 hours of bonding time!!  So in leiu of favors, this is our surprise for them!!  To tell you the truth, the price was great-about the same amount you would spend on favors (for a large wedding).

    I can't wait, I think I'm more excited about this than the wedding day...haha, j/k!  So for you brides, think outside the box (favor box that is -j/k) and maybe do something for your guests that they totally won't forget!

    That's really neat!  As a guest I would love that, and as a bride, I would be so proud to give that to my guests!  Good thinking!!

    That is such a great idea! I'm sure your guests will appreciate that more than any  trinket or goodie you would've given as favors.

    That will make for some fun memories and photo ops, I'm sure. =)

    Thanks ladies!  I'm super excited about it too!

    @ jennifer_espos:  I figured that the guests would love this more, than to bring something extra home from their trip!  After all we needed to do somthing special since they did travel quite a distance!

    @ mrsmdphd:  I am proud!  It did take some convincing to the Fi, but now he's all about it! 

    @ greenleafmountainWe'll tell our guest about in our welcome letter/book!

    @ Miss Pinot Grigio: the Fi and I are bringing our own photographers and we'll invite them on the cruise, so hopefully they want to take pics too!  HOPEFULLY!

    @ msmonickaI'm hoping that happens!

    I agree getting a free cruise and having the honor to attend a wedding could quite possibly be the best favor ever!
