Apart from paying a deposit for venue and photography, this is the first thing we have bought for the wedding. So nice to have something to hold as it makes it all the more real and exciting :D They are some lovely green favour boxes, so cute I think and a bargain at 58p each :D Now to think what will go inside... Let me know what you think, all opinions welcome (I'm not going to get upset and report you if you don't like it, seriously, everyone is entitled to their opinion!). I have no idea how to upload pictures on a post so have put a photo in favour ideas album in my pictures. x x x

Bet it feels all that more real now! We've not bought anything to grab onto as of yet - can't wait till we do! Definately a bargin! I've not seen any boxes like that before (well not in colour lol) they look lovely - in my eyes very different! Have fun trying to decide what to put in them :) xx

Thanks girls :) Oh, I have a while to wait to post pictures then MrsBorady2b lol! I think I might bake cookies or biscuits to put inside, they are the only thing I can bake but people tell me they taste good :p Will be cheap to do so definitely an option. x
CommentAuthorSian''OCD''Holkham
they look really good i love the pattern on them mine are just plain oink or plain navy gona add ribbon and pearls thinking of having chocolate hearts in our boxes have a look on the bay you cab get em really cheap on there or u could go traditional and have sugared almonds x
Ha, I thought that was what you meant. Yours still look good and will look gorgeous with the ribbons or whatever you choose to add. Sugared almonds or chocolate hearts will be nice, maybe have a variation so guests can swap if they want x
CommentAuthorSian''OCD''Holkham
thats a good idea actually! well i have a pic in a mag and the box is plain with ribbon tied round it and there are 3 pearls in the middle if u no what i mean lol looks really nice x
just had a nosey in your albums melliecake and your ideas are fantastic some really beautiful ideas, and the favour boxes are cute an so unique looking x

:) I just thought if people are allergic or don't like nuts. Yeah that sounds really pretty with the pearls, put a pic up when you do it! x
CommentAuthormelliecake
Aw thank you Claire! You have some lovely ideas in your albums too. I have a sort of nature/green theme if you noticed lol. Only have a smallish budget of 5k, hope I can do all these things with it. x

Aww there lovely,can you post a link on my wall for the supplier please ? xx
a slightly excited bride to be ; )
CommentAuthormelliecake
Thanks ladies :) I pretty much screamed when the postman had walked far away enough from the door Kye, it was totally unexpected, thought they would take a lot longer to arrive. I have thought about chocolate hearts suzky, I'm thinking something edible would be good, just trying to decide on the most cost effective idea! I requested you as a friend kirsty but now it won't let me post anything on your wall... :s so I've put the link on mine if that's ok x
CommentAuthormelliecake
I found these on e bay for £7 cheaper for the same amount ...no!!! lol I have learnt my lesson to check there first! x
CommentAuthorClairebear67
Well ive just ordered my shoes yay and im so excited, heavens knows what I will be like when they arrive, kids cannot understand why im so excited now, but then they are kids and they dont understand, but my guess is their minds will change the day we go and sort their dresses out Lol : ) xx
