Don't forget to check your loacal market. Ours has a great sweet stall, and if you want bulk you could always come to a deal with tem.

There's also the option of the pound shop.

Why do I never go in there and spend just a pound though?:rotfl:

I know what you mean... It always costs me about a tenner in that place!

At a family wedding recently the bride put the traditional 5 sugared almonds (bought in bulk - as you could do with choccies) in little voile bags bought v cheaply from ebay. They were v v inexpensive, looked gorgeous and fulfilled her wish to have favours.

Lots of guests (esp older more traditional types) thought they were brill and took them home to give to the grandchildren . Lots of others ate the sweets and left the bags behind and I collected up around 20 and have recycled them to hold all my costume jewellery separately and nicely!

So it was all good!

Hey!
I brought my wedding favours from ebay.
100 sweets for £14 (sounds alot but when you see them youll understand!) There little pieces of rock with just married written in the middle! You can get them in 3 different colours too!

My little favours bags were also from ebay totalling about £5 for 100

Hi,

Thanks everyone! :j

I'm still looking at all your ideas, I liked the Thorntons idea but would still be really expensive, now off to search ebay again!! Like the rock idea, should I just search for rock??

Bought a waistcoat and cravat for my nephew from BHS yesterday someone suggested it on another thread....slightly cheaper than the £79 I was quoted for hiring him a 2 yr olds suit!!! :rotfl:

My friend says her husband can get balloons from qualatex?? so hopefully they might be quite cheap.

I'm also considering following the video to make my own bouquet to see if I can do it, hayfever might interfere tho!! Going to a florist Saturday but have a feeling it will be expensive:eek:

Thanks again x

Hi,

I'm still looking and found these

Do you think they would be ok in organza bags or look too cheap??

I think they'd look really classy in organza bags!

Also found these but would prob need to buy 2 packs for 100 guests? So got more than 2 each??
