    Hello ladies,
    I have 6 weeks today, until the big day so now thinking about getting the favours pretty soon,
    However we chose to have organza bags, and I love Haribo strawbs so h2b said about having them, so now I'm thinking are they going to be all funny if placed into a organza bag, 3/4 in each bag

    If you search for cone shape organza bags on the bay of E they'll look awesome!

    Hmm, I understand what you mean. I think you will probably be fine, however I immediately thought of the mini close-seal bags that you can get? Maybe put the strawbs in those, and then put those in the bags? You can get them from the bay in bulk really cheap, and you'd only need little ones. Just a wee thought if you're that worried.

    Ooh never thought of that! Perhaps with them being in an organza bag it will keep the air flowing? Do a test run of one or two just now and see how long they keep, what climate they ruin in and are best kept in. That way, no panicking closer to the big day? xx

    Or you could layer them with rice paper hearts to stop them sticking together?

    Yep what Kirsty and Cheeky said. Worse case scenario; put them in the bags the night before and keep them in a cool place :)

    I would consider putting them in plastic wrap or sellphane Hun they will stick to the organza! I did a wedding sweet buffet and she asked me to do the favours and we did a test run and they stuck even when they were left in the wiring cupboard overnight so I got done pale pink sellphane and wrapped them in that and left a bit sticking out the top, they looked really pretty when we finished
