    I'm having 3 mini bars of green and blacks chocolate for the guests, but my guest list is getting bigger so I might get something else too, just in case their are people that don't like chocs.

    What theme are you having?

    Is there anything you or your family does that is special or could be tweaked into something 'favoury'? This is what we are doing. My H2B's mum makes honey and my mum makes marmalade & jams, so we have asked them each to fill several 1.5oz jars with their 'produce' and we will label it up & put it as a present on each guest's place as a gift from both of our mums.

    As my h2b has a big sweet tooth, we're making homemade jars of sweets that will double up as the name places.
    Each jar will have a gift tag on with their name and will also say thank you for joining us on our day.
    Think of what homemade jam looks like (fabric cover on top) and replace the jam with sweets and that's our favours!

    We are having cigars for the boys and fans for the girls. Also having little organza bags filled with sweets and wine glass charms.

    we are having some bombonier for the guests which will probably contain an indian sweet that my mother plans to make herself with nuts and loads of sweet milk and for the day guests, we are having keychains with elephants. ours is a fusion theme so both kinda go with that. :)

    We weren't going to have any, but last week my lovely cousin offered to make some for our wedding, so we're having organza bags with pink and white sweets in them plus a card on each bag with the date and our names. So lovely and sweet of her!
