I think no matter what you choose, you can’t please everyone. We decided to give away travel sized hand cream and bar soap, which we will hand assemble ourselves. I had mentioned it to a friend and she said “are you sure? Seems a bit feminine and not a lot of men would use it…” Oh well, too late now! if there are leftovers, we’ll gladly take them home to use ourselves! ;P

We got an “our love story” map made and will print out for guests to take home. We also created our own CD cover from engagement photos and made a CD of our love songs. It was very cheap since our printer could accommodate.

For my sisters wedding we went to Costco and got a variety of specialty chocolates (those Brookside dark chocolate covered Acai and pomegranate chocolates, or the chocolate sea salt and caramel chews, chocolate covered raisins, cranberries, etc. and stuffed organza bags full and tied them with handmade tags that had a silhouette of a bird on it with the phrase, “a sweet tweet for you!” (since she had a lovebirds theme). People loved them, and we noticed they were scooping up the bags from the seats of the people that didn’t show up. Tsk. I was looking forward to those leftovers too!

Cute idea, Stephanie! I’ve seen those koozies before and they’re perfect: fitting and functional! Thanks for sharing.

My fiance and I are on a budget too, but we found a koozie company that was less than $1/koozie. Ours say “To have and to hold and to keep your drink cold.”

Tara, thanks so much for sharing! What a great idea… it’s a great way to share both cultures and, as you pointed out, doesn’t break the bank. I love it!
