We're having a luau style at home reception because it is more laid back and fun. Since we're doing the luau style, we've decided to have empty candy bags at each seat. We are going to set up a candy buffet, but because an actual candy buffet can get pretty expensive with the glass jars.....we are using sandbuckets( new ones, obviously) with shovels.good luck!

I love the idea of the sandpails!

I've been to tons of weddings and the only favors I kept were wine glasses. When it comes to favors you want to make sure people will keep them and that they can fit into anyone's decor in there households. Anything too cutesy and kitchy will probably be thrown away or stuffed in a box.

Thanks everyone for the advice! I'm glad to read that there are some who are doing wedding favors as well as others who are not. I will have to think it over, but I don't think it will be in our budget to do them. :-)

Hi! We are thinking of doing an icecream bar/sundae station at our "hasta-la-vista party" /send off party...having a casual taco buffet and no favor! Question for you- did you send a save the date with both party dates or just wedding? Was it you that's doing the evite for AHR? Thanks

Is it acceptable to do a candy bar or ice cream even a popcorn bar as the favor instead of something to take home I feel like we threw half our favors away once we were in the car trying to avoid that and be more practical

We are only doing save the dates for DW the at home thing just doing invites 3-4 months in advance since its more casual and not a whole afternoon thing it's still far enough out to get a good response
