i was asking around at my office (in scotland) and the best one i heard was
make your own tablet and put in little boxes

better yet get a friend to make it for you.

Oh and buy Packs of Sweets Like Eclairs n werthers Originals n Tic tacs.. They went down well at our wedding.. we even bought Chocolate Coins in the Xmas Sales cos our wedding was in the February and Liquorice all sorts... In favour bags and the cake boxes decorated with wrapping paper ribbon and heart stickers.. We divided all the sweets into the Bags and Boxes..

I've seen some that had red lips sweets in and said "a kiss for you" and then another had a penny in and said "so you'll never be penniless".

Not sure what I'm having yet.. I'm from Wigan so think I may have Uncle Joes mint balls

But I like the none food ones that a more personal, like the little seed sticks. Or there is a website that does personalised paper fans fanfairuk.co.uk. There is also a site that makes personalised scratchcards for 25p each - scratchees.co.uk

Hope this helps x

I was all for the idea of wedding favours until the past year when I attended 4 weddings and was shocked about how many just get left on the tables at the end of the night. I was surprised because I always take mine home with me, plus place names etc (I'm a loser!) as souveniers!

Well after research and chatting to many friends about this matter I decided not to have any, then this morning I woke up at 5am and started thinking about it again.

My wedding colours are chocolate with ivory & gold and I thought as something different I will name the tables after different chocolates rather than number them - malteasers, minstrels, revels etc - then as favours I will fill a little organza bag (or glass from bar maybe - even cheaper!) with whatever chocolate that table is named! Quite proud of myself as I'm not really the bright ideas type but thought it was a nice idea for something a little different!

Does this sound like a good idea or naff????

Sounds like a good idea.. I think it's mainly the sugared almonds that get left as hardly anyone likes them!

My sister gave favours to the family instead of the individuals. They were lovely mirrored glass trinket boxes. But they were placed next to the females place name. So I got one for me, OH and ds, Her sister in law got one for her family and so on. So for a 140+ guests she only had to have 70+ favours. She did have alcohol minitures on the tables so the men would get something.
