Help with favours

maxinegallie, 2 October, 2011 at 18:34 Posted on Planning 0 5

I wonder if anyone can help me. A while ago someone posted on here about their favours, there were 5 things in an organza bag to signify 5 things they wanted to give to guests (e.g. wealth, health etc).

I couldn't see the post but loved the idea and wondered if they might post a little info on what the items were and why, it is a lovely idea to give some meaning to guests. I am starting to think of my own version for my favours.

    Hi Maxine

    Favours traditionally contain 5 sugared almonds that symbolise health, wealth, long life, happiness & fertility. These sugared almonds are available in many different colours to compliment your theme.

    You can also have chocolate dragees and many other things as your contents, the choice is really yours.

    We would be more than happy to assist you in any way we can to help you clarify what you are looking for. We can either make your favours to your design or if you prefer, supply all the component you require to make your own.

    Kind regards

    Maria

    Hi, i started a post about this ages ago not sure where it is now lol but i couldnt have almonds at the wedding as my son has a nut allergy and was trying to come up with some other ways of representing the 5 things i got as far a

    health -- i made wine charms as they say a glass of red a day keeps the dr away

    wealth --i am getting pennies from the bank in 2012 to symbolise the yr we get married and to start making people wealthy lol

    happiness --- Chocolates and sample perfumes/ aftershaves who's not happy with eating choc and smelling nice

    long life ---- a small rubber cube, to rub away past mistakes and start afresh to put arguements behind us and go to bed happy and still in love at the end of the night will lead to a long life together

    fertility --- short of viagra or a condom to stop it lol i havent come up with one for this yet

    i have also included a thank you scroll tied in my colour ribbon

    HTH mine are honestly just a bit of fun and hope i dont offend anyone with my fertility remark !!!

    It was AJ. I seem to remember there was a little pot of UHT milk in there somewhere (to symbolise long life).

    Why don't you do plant or flower seeds for fertility?
