Awesome ideas ladies!!!!!! Love the shot glass idea!!!!! Shot glasses, filled with candy!!!! And most of my guest list drink, so that’s awesome! We are also having a signature drink (haven’t chosen one yet-but some kind of fruity martini-like one I am thinking)…so the shot glass will go along with that theme!
And UMMMM RMC has THE best apples!!!!
I’m Irish and my fiance is Korean so we’re doing two favors that will alternate seat by seat on every table. Personalized chopsticks with our names and dates…pricey, but his family will appreciate it. And the Irish are well known for their love of tea (among other things) so the second favor will be white ceramic teapot spoon rests. I can’t wait!
At first I seriously considered donating the money to charity in lieu of favors, but we ended up going with these (handmade by my childhood neighbor), just in our wedding colors instead of pink…
I will say that if you go that route, you should be careful of the candy you choose, since the larger candy won’t really fit in the shot glasses. Erm… if you’re going to do drinks with the shot glasses, filling them with candy might not be a great idea. ๐ Maybe go with one or the other?
We will be making a donation and we also have a candy buffet .
Just this weekend we found a local bee farm (is that what you call it?) that makes honey straws in different flavors. Blueberry, grape, and peppermint make a lovely color combo of our wedding colors, and the clover honey is a lovely pale color, like champagne.
We’ll tie 2 or 3 together in different combos with little notes like ‘thanks for beeing here on our special day’ or ‘love is sweet,’ etc etc. 60 cents max/guest, so I’m loving it!
Im doing the good ol Candy Buffet ๐ We are on a tight budget and it works well for us!
We are doing homemade jam to go with our country theme!
