    I voted for the chocolate, but that's because I don't want anything with anyone else's monogram or wedding date on it. Without the monogram, I would have chosen the champagne.

    @helenberrycrunch: Ditto

    How bout losing the monogram? The champagne favor would be amazing!

    Thats good to know, maybe a champagne glass without the monogram then? Maybe a pretty emblem instead? I'll change it in the voting, i agree with you that I wouldnt really want something with someone elses monogram either!! :)

    I agree about the monogram. You could just go with the bottle of champagne if you ask me.

    I wouldn't really want a lone champagne glass that didn't match any of my other champagne glasses.  That's just me though.

    I voted for chocolate, but I would like a candle too.

    I think the champagne favour is really cute. I have also never gotten that before whereas I have gotten chocolate so it seems more original!

    I voted champagne but would also love chocolate. Iknow not everyone drinks or drinks champagne so I would think chocolate is the best crowd pleaser. It's also nice to have as a late night snack in the hotel room or the next morning.

    Chocolate - I am not a fan of moet and the one glass would be odd sitting in the cabinet.

    Chocolate!  That way it's eaten and I don't have to take it home and keep it.

    My fiance and I have SO many random lonely glasses in our collection. Actually, after combining our things recently, we are getting rid of most of them! I'm giving chocolate to my people since I love it myself.

    Chocolate! I would never turn that down. Champagne might get left on the table.

    I think all of those favors are really nice =)  I would really love any of them.  I think most people would prefer the chocolate though.  Sounds delicious.

    Champagne for sure!  Personally, I don't really like chocolate, and it's EVERYWHERE.  I've gotten chocolate favors many times before, and I never eat them.  Also, all the couples would end up with 2 matching glasses, which is always nice.

    I really like all three ideas but i voted for chocolate because we already have tons of glasses and also tons of candles and candle holders. I'm constantly trying to get rid of these things and probably wouldn't take it home. You could do a combination of champagne bottles and chocolate instead of glasses and maybe attach a small box of chocolate to the bottles with a ribbon.

    I was torn between the champagne and the truffles.  I love Moet!  I love truffles, too!  I wouldn't know what to do with the mismatched champagne glass, though.

    I voted truffles.  It might also be more of a crowd pleaser. I know several people who don't like champagne, but nobody who doesn't like chocolate!

    I voted for the chocolate. I have a few of those champagne glasses all from different weddings and they don't match so I tossed them.  The candle is just more clutter.   I love chocolate and anything i don't have to cart home with me is awesome!

    I voted chocolate because who doesn't love something edible.  On a side note, I love the champagne idea, just without the glass.  A glass that doesn't match what I have in my house is just another thing to take care of that I would rather toss and I wouldn't want to toss a nice gesture like that so . . . .

    My aunt is making traditional Italian wedding cookies (and some of mine and FI's favorites) for us to set out on tables. Before that, I was going to skip favors altogether. I find people don't like monogramed/personalized knick knacks for the home, especially with someone elses' date on it. And with the eaten favors, I didn't have the time/patience to make them myself. So my aunt is such a sweetheart and is traveling down from Pittsburgh a few days early to help me with the wedding. :)

    My vote is for chocolate. I always think edible goes over best as favors.

    I agree with others to lose the monogram...  I think the chocolate is probably the safest bet though, because you don't have to worry about people that don't drink or don't like certain scents. I'd personally be thrilled to get any of those 3 favors though!

    Chocolate! I had to toss the wine at the last wedding I received because it was over 3 oz and I was flying. It was sad.

    Chocolate! The reason it is a popular favor is because it is delicious and definitely a crowd pleaser. Can't go wrong with something sweet :-)

    If you are having a Adult only wedding I would say the champage (No lonely glass) and if you have a Kid Friendly Wedding, then chocolates.

    Wow these would all be really amazing favors!!

    I love volupsa candles so Im partial to them - however, I think women would be more appreciative of a really nice scented Candle. My vote is for Moet, bc really Ive never heard of some one not liking champagne! But you know your guests - mostly adults who love bubbly? perfect! plus it will be so photogenic :) I agree with others though, ditch the lone glass, and just do the champagne with a little thank you tag tied around them!
