  • My friend had the same idea but used sweets. Her tables names were lots of different sweets such as Haribo, flying saucers, bon bon's etc and then had these on the table in a bowl. It worked really well - although they didn't last long!!!! Enjoy
  • I CLICKED ON THE link (caps lock sorry!) and It said it may be a phishing website- a pop up box said it was a suspicious website so be careful here peeps!

    Hi all,

    Sorry if someone else has already spoted and posted this.

    I was just having a little look on the hobby craft website and they have packs of 20 organza favour bags buy on get one free in quite a few different colours. So you get 40 for £4.88.

    That is only 12p per bag, not too bad for an MSE wedding!

    Thought I would share my little find!

    well i think i changed my mind about 5 times lol and in the end i bought plastic wine glasses from asda (10 for 99p) put glue on the rim and dipped it in glitter. added pink and white tisue paper inside and bought 560 mini rolls of lobe hearts for £40 from the swizzles website added 5 to each glass
    They went down a treat and was none left by end of the night.and still have 200 rolls of love hearts left lol

    I also just said in another thread there is a seller on ebay (100% feedback) that sells 200 dragees for £2 in various colours plus p+p which may be worth looking into!

    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
