So many good ideas already given, but how about chocolate spoons - really easy to make yourself and very inexpensive. Also, cute, cheap, and easy are custom/personalized stickers for chocolate kisses. You can get tips on places to order these and other favors or just step-by-step instructions for making them yourself at http://www.chocolate-candy-mall.com/chocolate-candy-for-weddings.html

I hope the day is memorable for all.
Congrats!

Instead of doing favors, my husband and I made a donation to a charity. We wrote on the bottom of our programs: In lieu of favors, a donation has been made the American Cancer Society.

Something different and cool would be a beta fish…..in a glass globe with a cheap plant on top. I sure you can get a deal buying 100 beta fish…….check it out……it will be nice too….if done right and could be cheap too…..

How about a packet of flower seeds attached to a piece of decorative paper with your names, wedding date, etc…

Decorated sugar cookies are great, but buying them can be costly. I like anything that is a consumable because we all have a lot of stuff laying around the house.

What about a tree from the National Arbor Day Organization. You can get them and attach a card with your wedding info on it. Maybe even a garden stake for the guest to put in when they plant the tree. You can give one tree to each couple or family. Don’t put them at the tables, but put them in a basket by the entrance. I know someone who got them for free and another who paid less than a dollar for each tree. If you are a homeowner, you can plant the rest in your yard.

Take a plastic spoon, place 3-4 Kiss candies on it and wrap with tulle. Tie with some curling ribbon and attatch a tag that says "A spoonful of kisses from the new Mr & Mrs."

You can print your own candybar wrappers. Try http://www.alenkasprintables.com/ for this and many other ideas.

Also a neat idea:
Decorated sugar cookies with a wedding theme.

An easy way to personalize any favor would be a clear "address" type label with your names and the date or any other information you might want.

Instead of pre-packaged party favors, set up a candy bar!! Select several different types of candies & place each into a large crystal bowl with a small scoop. Have mini bags or to-go containers nicely decorated on hand & let each guest make their own mix!! Much better than a packet of seeds that will just get tossed in a drawer once the guests go back home! Congrats & Good Luck!!

Don’t know how elaborate your wedding will be.
We did fortune cookies and mints in tulle with a ribbon.
Might I suggest a fun picture of something that you both love doing as well as a picture of each of you when you were younger…
Place on one of those large picture calenders like they do at Walmart along with a poem of your choosing. "Two hearts, joined together…looking toward the future." name, date of wedding. Relatively inexpensive, unique. Shouldn’t have to do 100, one for each couple or single person.White envelope, thank you for coming.

Did the artwork and poem on my computer, saved it in one picture file; took to Walmart had it printed on 8 x 10 picture paper and gave as gifts to relatives to honor a family member. Offered picture frames to some.
