that is a good idea but we are not having a buffet so unsure if that would work the table by the door might though

I had a pretty decorated basket and actually went around my guests handing them out, which is a lovely way of making sure you have had a quick word with everyone and the favours were appreciated by the guests, as oppose to being something that were just laying around!

Thank you Shelanne i hadn't thought of that it is a really good idea i might even get my bridesmaids to do it as well

out of pure interest what sort of favours did everyone else have , i have little rock pieces in a bag looks really nice

My favors were lotto tickets and i kinda cheated because the name places were the envelopes we put the tickets in. Nicely printed out with their names!!!

My friend's having poppy seeds (she gets married on 11/11/11) and mini love hearts packs in red organza bags with a poem attached to the bag. We made them ourselves so it's been pretty cheap

We've got some chocolate truffles in boxes, like mini gift boxes which will be silver with purple ribbon or purple with silver ribbon. They're not the cheapest but they're doubling up as table decorations as we'll be putting them in everybody's place setting at the meal, so that's my excuse for spending a bit more! I am known for being a total chocaholic so it's entirely appropriate

my wife had the traditional sugared almonds in a little organza pouch .but i think she would have prefered the chocolate in the end lol
