Here's an exciting idea for wedding favors (at least tableside). Since we're having and outdoor wedding around the beginning of summer, I thought it'd be nice to have Asian-style sandalwood or red silk fans on the chairs of the ceremony, to make ita bit more bearable, in case it's too warm.
So, for the tables: I'm an absolute tea fanatic. I would love a tea-themed favor: personalized mugs, tea bags or tea tins and an infuser, plus or minus a personalized jar of honey. It would look something like this (except the imprint on the mug wouldn't say Godfather's Pizza - it would be the double happiness symbol with our names and the wedding date, or something like that; and it would either be in white or gold lettering):
The price breaks down as such:
- Mug ($1.45-$1.94)
- Tea Bag ($0.85)
- Tea Tin ($2.35)
- Tea Infuser ($2.20)
- Honey Jar ($2.35)
Totals:
Assuming no tax/shipping for the objects, for now, and also for the $1.94 mug, which is the only way it comes in the red color, unfortunately.
- Mug + Tea Bag ($2.79)
- Mug + Tea Bag + Honey ($5.14)
- Mug + Tea Tin + Infuser ($6.49)
- Mug + Tea Tin + Infuser + Honey ($8.84)
Bottom Line The honey is probably superfluous. The mug and tea bag is cheaper. The mug with tin and infuser is nicer. I guess it depends on how many guests there will be and what the budget shapes up like. So... would this look too tacky as a favor?
I think the honey jars are out of the equation. Cute, but too much. And too expensive, in the long run. Most are probably going to end up tossed out anyway.
The mug would look something like this. But since I don't have Photoshop at the moment, this probably isn't the best representative sample of final product:
