    I got some small volie (sp??) candles in burgandy and pale pink and put them in ivory and burgandy organza bags, got it all in various sales so rather than being £2.59 each they were 59p each!! Very MSE :D
    :rotfl:Ahahah got my signature removed for claiming MSE thought it was too boring :rotfl:

    Me too, I got save the date magnet, brochures with info about the place we are getting married, pens (for fun), address labels, business cards to use as place cards, notebook for our plans to keep which matches the theme, will get thank you cards after the wedding, have already got notepads (again, for fun really and jotting down bits), name stamp, notecards to match to be sent to certain people with save the date magnet and loads more. If I wasnt making my invited myself, I would order them there as well!

    I see I have some catching up to do! :p

    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?



    It an asian wedding and the colours are red and gold. I love your idea of the green and blacks chocolate. We are having 250 guests so i want something nice but most of all cost affective basically mse!!

    We are not having favours, but instead going to get a local choc company - http://www.cocoa-ooze.co.uk/ to make chocs to put in the rooms of all the guests instead. I thought it would be nice to have a wee treat while they were getting ready, or before bed, and I have been to a few wedding where beautiful favours are just left lying about at the end of the night, and that would annoy me!

    I noticed in this months you and your wedding magazine that they have an offer on these, I think it's 25% off, so would make them even more affordable!

    I got 25 for p&p which was under £3
    when you get the emails it states what you can get for free and then when you click link it states what you can get -big ones you have to pay for but then in the options couple say "so many FREE" and then you go from there.

    I also have started abusing them and am going to keep i have an email every bledding day what do they expect!!!

    My favors are: Men tux boxes (my bargain the 10pk in £1world lol) in them mini aftershave, choc and mini drink (i think I did find some ace diy scratch cards so umming and ahhing more to the point i dont know how id feel if someone won a ton of money haah)
    Women are getting a goody bag :)
