    We have a lovely shop near us that sell those bath mallows that look like sweets and they put them in little pretty white boxes so I'm having those for the ladies and girls. As for the men, I have no clue.

    I am going for cancer research pin badges.

    Im stuck between going for Cancer Research uk where i wil have ribbon with pink stone for the ladies and ribbon with blue stone for the guys.
    Or World Cancer Research Fund where the badges will all be the same with dif colours representing different forms of cancer.
    On top of this i will be making my own butterfly shaped chocolates and wrapping them in purple foil.

    We're having LOROS scratchcards. LOROS is a local cancer hospice which cares for people with terminal cancer and is funded completely by donations. My auntie spent time there before she died, and it was such a lovely place - much better than the hospital - so it's a worthy cause and also a nice way to remember my auntie x

    have my favor bags at home but cant decide what i'm having at the moment is still lots of time so therefore need to discuss that with h2b liking the ideas of the charity or cancer research would really love to do that any tips from anyone who has done those????? would be nice to know :) (probably doing them without h2b's help as he didnt like the idea so much but i liked it very much so :) apart from that will think that kids will get sweeties and maybe some miniature toys which they could use on the day like drawing book with crayons :D otherwise was thinking of those "boring heart shaped chocolates or the chocolate which is personalized" :)

    is there any advise that u lovely girls could give me???

    We have bought 3kg of love hearts for a really good price from the website named after a rainforest. We have put them in gift bags, though the bags are a bit big for number of lovehearts so I may have to get more/ add something else in.

    I've only just started thinking about wedding favours so apologies if this is a daft question, but do you give these just to the day guests who are ceremony/meal or to the evening guests as well?? Only wedding i've ever been to there were only 40 guests in total so everyone was there all day! xx

    Just got this off another website as a definition of favours:

    Traditionally at a wedding, five sugared almonds were given to each guest to symbolise the bitter-sweet nature of marriage and to represent health, wealth, fertility, long life and happiness. Favours are your special little gift for every guest to take home and remember your day. They are usually left at each guest’s place setting at the wedding breakfast, but can also be given out after the reception providing the bride and groom with the perfect excuse to stop and talk to every guest.
