Hi everyone

Im getting Married in 2 weeks!! oh my God!!!

From the beginning i've always wanted a free bar, so i decided to not do favours. Not im having last minute doubts... I want something for the guests to have at their tables places...

what you you think? I just don't know what to do!!!

I'm sure someone on here had thorntons chocolate slabs iced with peoples names. Or if you're not having a sweetie buffet how about jars of sweets in the middle of each table? Or someone recently posted a report where they had hats filled with different lollipops (I think!) could do a mixture of things!

;)

Hi, I wanted favours but I didn't want to spend lots as some people do just leave them on the table at the end of the meal and forget about them. SO, we bought a lollypop mould/mold (sp?), sticks and cellophane bags on good old Ebay for a few quid and we're going to get some chocolate and make chocolate lollys. We'll either pipe peoples names on them or make tags to put on them, this way they double up as place settings. So place settings AND favours for under £15 depending on how much/which chocolate we use!

Hope that helps. :D

As suggested you could put a jar or vase or something in the centre of the table and fill it with chocolates, sweets or something else hth

Thanks! Nice ideas...
with 2 weeks to go and so much else to do, i doubt i'll get round to doing anything for favours... but will the guests be disappointed??

Exactly! ;) I really don't think the guests will be disappointed, there will be so much great stuff happening anyway, so don't worry! If you have doubts again, you can do lottery scratch cards at £1 each, or a bowl/jar of sweets per table, the sweets are always welcome by all guests!
