Wedding tissues

Options
Hi

I know I shouldn't even be thinking of this level of detail yet... but ... I really want to get some wedding tissues.

Only paper tissues really. Maybe with a bride and groom or something on them. I would like to leave some in the ladies loo.

Worrying the things I have become fixtaed on :rotfl:

    Thanks so much. Will have a look at the links later. (really should get on with my report on lorry parking - god I have a fun job).

    I do like the idea of getting creative.... might get some plain ones and have a play. :)

    Thanks again

    I did a hat box full of mini 'emergency repair kit' in my ladies loos (complete with tissues with love hearts from Next)
    I bought: plasters, paracetemol, tampax, hairspray, body lotion, deoderant, handcream, party feet blister pads, lip balm, suncream, boob tape, wet wipes, facial spritz, perfume, body spray, tights, breath freshner, nail file, clear nail polish, needle and thread, comb, small scissors, anti-shine blotting paper, mascara etc etc!! The box was an old soap and glory hat box with a big ribbon around it and a card with the following words:
    So happy you’re here to share our day
    But should something happen to go astray
    Please help yourself to the contents within....
    Wet wipes, hand lotion or even aspirin
    Use what you need but please leave the rest
    As it may be useful for another guest
    So repair the damage that may have been done
    Then hurry on back and join in the fun!

    The only thing was, the ladies spent even longer in the loos!! :T
    Women marry men hoping they will change, men marry women hoping they won't! Inevitably they will both be disappointed.

    i got a big pack of 20 packs of pocket pack tissues that they do in tesco, and i basically took 3 tissues out of each pack and tied them with a purple ribbon and put them in a basket which was held by an usher and offered to people as they entered the church
    i made a sign that said "i always cry at weddings... do you?"

    hang on... will try and find a pic...
