kemo_2002

I am thinking of giving my over 18s guest a scratch card as thier favour, where would i go about getting 100 scratch cards , would feel really bad going into a shop asking for them!!

Also envelopes to fit?

Also... Is there a way i could get something printed on them along the lines of, you have wished us good luck, hope you find some here?? thats really rubbish can anyone help?

Kemo -
Envelopes as on Tash's thread about envelopes.

I would suggest just buying the scratch cards in batches - get OH and other members of the wedding party to buy them in 5 at a time...!!

Also - if you go to Vistaprint, you can get business cards printed with your message on.

What about something like this?

Oh, and it wouldn't bother me going into a shop asking for 100, but maybe buy 10 a day for 10 days so you don't have to count and recheck at the same time lol x

My mum got some envelopes of ebay, they were printed on the front with all the guests names and the wedding date, so they doubled up as place cards, then they were also printed on the back too.

They werent cheap about £4.50 for 8 but this included each envelope being printed with a different name in silver.

When they arrived they were gorgeous and worth the money.

BUT on the day of the wedding, they were quickly cast aside and it all seemed such a wasted effort. And iMHO almost £50 wasted.

Some never even got opened. So we had to go round and collect them all and check, in case we'd thrown a jackpot away.

You could but lottery tickets instead, these are slightly bigger.

if you buy then that week and have then for the night of your wedding you can get the venue to put the draw on the big screen, ive seen this done a few times, then you can watch everyones faces as the balls come out.

Our venue are setting up the wii and ps3 for the kids on their bid screen.

we're going to buy personalised scratchcards from Ebay. You can pick how many winning and losing cards you'd like sending and supply your own prizes. I think it's less than £20 for 60 and they include your name and message on. I think we are going to hide them under everyones seat and then as part of the speeches they'll all be instructed to look there and see if they're a winner. Thought it would be fun to have a few fun surprises on the day and at least you know someone's definitely going to win something.
