Hi Ladies,
My wedding is in 11/06. I've been thinking about what kind of gifts I would like to give to my guests. I though about a personalized wedding CD, but I haven't made a decision. I want to give something that is really nice, but inexpensive. If you guys have any suggestions, I would really appreciate your thoughts. As always you sisters have have been an excellent source of ideas.

It's pretty hard to pick out a gift for your guests but I think the CD is a good idea. You might think this is kind of silly but what do you think about shot glasses or beer mugs?The can bought at wholesale prices.If I think of anything else, I'll let you know.
Born Blessed!
How about a deck of cards.I saw those on a web site but I don't remember which one.If I find out, I'll let you know.
Born Blessed!
I've seen a little bell with your names embossed in a little decorative bag.
Charlotte wishes you all a beautiful Christmas filled with loads of love, laughter and the true meaning of this blessed season.
Thanks ladies, as always, I truly appreciate your input.

THE PEN IDEA IS WHAT ME AND MY FH HAVE DECIDED TO GO WITH AS WEDDING FAVORS. ALONG WITH PENS WE ARE ALSO MAKING BOOKMARKS TO GO ALONG WITH THEM. ON THE BOOKMARKS, I THINK WE ARE GONNA TRY A PIC OF US OR JUST A THANK YOU AND OUR NAMES & DATE. IF YOU LIKE THE PEN IDEA, I CAN TRY TO LOOK UP THE WEB SITE FOR IT.

I purchased my wedding favors from Orential Trading and the prices were great because the items were in bulk. I bought the wedding candles, the engraved pencils with the bells on the end and some wedding candies to place in bags. I ordered some scrolls off of ebay and some really cute engraved bags to put all the items in. My husband and I bought some tissue paper to match our wedding colors and the color of the engraving on the bags. The bags looked really great at each table setting for the reception! It worked out well and everyone loved their gifts. Good luck!!
WHAT WILL YOU LADIES BE GIVING YOUR GUEST?
I am going to give each guest a puzzle. The puzzle will be a picture of my fh and myself with our names and wedding date. It will be packed in a tin canister with the same design as the puzzle. It will have a ribbon and tag on it that say's putting togethor the pieces of our love.

That songs like a cute idea.I will be givng my guest a personalised CD (one CD per family),personalised bookmarkers and a bell with an almond as the ringer.
Ladies another great site is Wrap with us.com or wrap with you .com. I found some great personal gifts and they were really inexpensive. I am doing picture frames not the normal ones but nice silver ones w/hearts kinda lasered around them. With a picture we are taking b4 already in it. My brides maids,flower girls and coordinators are getting goody bags w/stuff from several websites in it. from wrap I got double heart keychains and heart wine bottle toppers. From abc distributors, I got beautiful pj's for some and spa baskets for others.. Ladies please check out those sites. Some of them even do samples. You will be surprised to see the savings and quality.

Congratulations! I think Wedding CD's are perfect. I'm jumping the broom 8/07 and my Fiance and I are giving Wedding CD's. We both LOVE music so it was no brainer. Just figure out how many songs your cd will hold, then divide the number of songs between the two of you, (ex. 16 song cd...8 songs to dedicate to him and vice versa)Call your 8 songs the "BRIDETERLUDE" and his 8 songs will be called the "GROOMTERULUDE", hence INTERLUDE. Not costly at all if you have a CD Burner. If not, we all have at least one friend with one. If so..Hint to them, the option of them making your CD Wedding favors as a Wedding Present to you and your Groom-To-Be. Cute, huh?
That's how we spent yesterday; sorting the music for our cd.It was great fun.We were even dancing to some of the music.Thanks to you vibrides we were able to use some music that had sentimental value but we had completely forgotten about.
I'm doing CDs too and one of my co-workers is a musician and he offered to burn 100 CDs for me for free. He has a special machine that can turn them out quickly. God is good!
Delight yourself in The Lord & He will give you the desires of your heart!Ps 37
I wanted to do the cd thing, but we just went to a wedding where my fh cousin just did the exact samething. I am going to be a little diffrent and have a picture of me and my fh on a puzzle, including our names and wedding date.

That's a cute idea.
I teach fourth grade. I wanted to create a little book and each page will have my students answer filling in the blank "Love is....", I also wanted to include our favorite scriptures & love quotes.
It just seems like so much work, graphic design, printing and assembly of it all. I may opt to just keep it simple.
