Our wedding is at 4pm, with a bbq at 6:00pm... initially we where having everybody we wanted at the wedding all day but as it draws closer ive realised there are certain members of my Dads side of the family who Id like to attend so we invited them along for the evening. The adults favours are the pictures they take away from the characaturist and the kids favours are good bags. Do I now need to make more favours for the kids coming in the evening??

I would be say, if you have the budget then a goody bag fake the kids coming in the evening would be a really nice touch. But if it's not in the budget then I really wouldn't worry as its really not a nessity. Xx

I don't think evening guest would expect a favour, but it might be a nice touch for you younger guests.
Its all down to you and your budget. If you think you can afford it without it breaking the bank, then go for it - on the other hand, if you think the money could be spend better elsewhere, then don't worry about it, and spend the money where you think its needed the most.
Looking forward to becoming the 3rd and last Mrs McLauchlan

I wouldn't have thought you have favors for evening but if you wanted a pack for the kids to keep them occupied then might be nice?

i would make extra favours up for additional kids, i'd hate to see a child go without and not understand why. The adults would be more understanding

Ive managed to squeeze another 2 goody bags out of the bits I already have im reluctant to buy anything else to be honest because I bulk bought everything in packs of 25 and now there are 27 kids. LOL. They have a packof gummy sweets, a pack of pl@ydoh, an activty book with crayons, bubbles and an inflatable (like a guitar, sax, microphone etc) the eldest kid is 12 everyone else is under 10 so Ive taken her goody bag and put somebody elses name on it and i'm going to buy her a throwaway camera and an eye spy list. She might apprieciate it more with some pl@ydoh and an inflatable. The other child Ive managed to get a bag roughly the same shape and colour as everyone elses and put in spare crayons, pl@ydoh, bubbles from my own daughters crane machine (i had to improvise) and some gummy sweets of which I have loads. I dont have anymore activity packs unless I bulk buy more, I might try and make my own or buy a cheap colouring book from the shop that fits in the bag.

I bought them from the bay. They have a personalised front qith an owl on it and then just printed off sheets of paper with puzzles and colouring pages etc. Nothing special... I made my own for at least 80% of the goody bags but my printer ran out of ink. They cost £1.34 each. Thankfully i just had to buy 4. X
