We are getting married this fall and are considering doing things. We aren't planning on doing a favor unless we do the photo both or come up with some other non-crap idea.

Friends of ours gave out little boxes of chocolates from Artisan Chocolates in Arlington. Awesome.

We did not give favors, but my bridesmaids loved their gift. I got them each a gift certificate for a half-hour massage at a spa back where they lived (Wedding required travel for everyone).

We gave white ceramic angel ornaments with a small tag with our names and the date. 15 years later we still get Christmas cards from people mentioning they use the ornament every year.

We had the caterer offer warm chocolate chip cookies to guests as they left along with coffee to go. Those that wanted to partake did and there were no leftover goodie bags to mess with. The cookies were fabulous!

We gave everyone a little tea gift bag. It had a heart shaped tea infuser, a magnetic tea tin to go on a fridge or something and then a few different flavors of loose leaf tea.

We were married in Austin. Round rock is a suburb outside of austin. Lone Star bakery in RR is known for their doughnuts. The bakery packaged up the doughnuts for us. Everyone loved them..it seems.

This is cute! Mostly because the story is great.

Best favor I've gotten was at a wedding shower, which was a cooking class at Sur La Table. We each got a little 1/4 cup liquid measuring cup (filled with candies). I use thing every single day.

Food. Particularly food that is special to the couple. Always well received. And those who don't want leave it, and those who love it take a second for their kids or whatever.

We set up a self serve candy bar with bags at our wedding. I think it was pretty popular.

Minis - Kalua, Vodka and Baileys

Obviously some people did not like the favor though because we had a whole bunch that night.
