What would you like to receive as a favor? (out of the following options)

Glass pumpkin ornament (also placecard holder): http://www.myweddingmarket.com/PlaceCards/FBL_PCHolderPumpkin.shtml

Glass photo coasters: http://www.blissweddingsmarket.com/store/000597.htm

Leaf wine bottle stopper: http://www.blissweddingsmarket.com/store/silver-leaf-wine-bottle-stopper.htm

Seed place card : http://www.blissweddingsmarket.com/store/fall-leaf-plantable-seed-place-cards.htm


Or should I give out minature wine bottles with our pictures on it? If I give a favor that doesn't have a place card what should I do for place cards? I don't know why this is so hard for me, but it is.
favors, fall

I like the glass pumpkin....my reasons why

the glass coasters aren't really good to use as a coaster because the water drips right off of it...mine actually had water go on to the photo and ruin it.

wine bottle stopper....not everyone drinks wine

seed place card holder...most people will honestly forget what they did with the card and never plant it. even though i love the idea

favours are tough. i think i like the pumpkin or the wine stopper. if you did choose something without a placecard you could always double your thank you tag as the placecard, which is what we are doing. on one side it will say "thank you from S & J blah blah" then on the other side i will write the guests names and table assignment.

1)  Ornament--I wouldn't like this---my MOH had this for her wedding, just plain silver ornaments with ribbon with their name and wedding date wrapped around it, placed in a cute box....I had a couple of the ornaments rolling around in my car for months until I threw it away or they broke.  

2)  The glass coasters are cute too.  Good idea.  Definitely something that can be reused and something for everyone--could use it as the place card and then people can put whatever picture they want when they get home.  

3)  Leaf wine bottle stopper--it's always nice to have a good wine stopper---but what about your guests that don't drink?  This may be useless to them, but useful to others (remember you can't please everyone).  You can always collect the ones that people leave behind and use for yourself hehe

4)  Seed card--very green!  I love this idea but then you are assuming everyone will go home and plant them---which some will and others may just throw it away.  I would probably type a little saying or something that states they can be planted.  My mom got a card that was like this and it's pretty neat.  Then again, if it doubles as a place card, who cares if people don't take them...because you are still saving money by not having to do the place cards separately.  Perhaps you could assign someone the job of collecting these things after the guests have left and you can use them for yourself!  :-)

I don't think you can really go wrong with any of your choices--they are all good, it's just a matter of what you think people may use the most.  

My vote would be the seed place card or the coaster since they are easily suitable for anyone.

Definitely the bottle stopper!  I've got both this and the coaster before and the coaster I ended up throwing out (just not my taste with the picture inside...)
but the wine stopper my FH both received and both LOVED them!  One of them ended up getting a little rust spot on after a year so we threw it out but the other one is still fine (and the fact that the rusty one lasted as long as it did and we got tons of use out of it was good enough for us!) it was the best wedding favour we've received so far:) ....this is what we'd be giving but quite a few of our guests do not drink, so it would depend on your guests:)

I'd say either the seeds or the wine bottles. I would say wine bottles first.  You could attach the place cards around the bottle like a gift tag or if its corked use a pin to stick out the top?

The other ideas are cute, but I have heard (and agree) that so often people don't use those things and you spend so much money on it...better off doing something people are more likely to use (or drink :) ).

Good luck!

I love these little pumpkins as a place card holder.  I thought about them for my own wedding, but went an entirely different route.  They are very colourful, and they will add some colour to your guest tables since everyone will bring them back to the tables with them.  They are very cute, for sure.  These aren't very practical for guest favours, but I don't think there's much that people want to hang on to anyway, so it shouldn't matter much.  Go for it if you like it.  They're expensive place card holders, but if you're not buying another guest favour, then "who cares???".

Bottle opener because even if they dont drink people will come over and drink.
