For my shower, I made sugar scrubs for all the guests, and I got rave reviews. I think it worked out to maybe $2/jar? I still have about 25 jars if you decide to go this route.

 

This may be too much info but whatever LOL

 

I got pet jars from Uline (sold by the case, best prices I could find), sugar and oil from Aldi (cheapie grocery store) and fragrance oils from Michaels. One variety box of fragrence oils would make more than 85 scrubs. I made labels and tags and I was able to make 40 jars in one night.

I have been in 10 weddings and probably been to at least 20 showers and I have never received a "Favor" for attending the shower.  Of course, we would get prizes for any games played, but that's it.  So, are favors even a necessity, especially for 85 people???  It's definitely a nice gesture, but I have never expected anything from a wedding shower just for attending. 

 

But, I do think the sugar scrubs sounds fab!!!

I've been to several showers and have received favors at some but not all. The favors I received were super cute! At one shower, we were given small mirrors which were personalized with our name, photo below. At my shower, one of the hostesses gave everyone really cute patterned dish washing gloves, I believe she got them at Michaels.  She put them in white take out boxes and tied the box with a bow in our wedding colors.  Everyone loved it!  

 

As people said above, I wouldn't feel pressured to give a gift to everyone at the shower, especially since it sounds like there will be a lot of people there. I think giving a gift to the winners of games that are played is sufficient. However, if you do decide, I hope some of these ideas helped!!

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
