I could everyone''s advice on what sort of favors to have for the wedding (I''m totally late on this front with five weeks left! Eep!)...
We had talked about putting together a mix CD, but the songs we want to put on aren''t particularly romantic--just good ones that we love. Is that weird/tacky? It''d likely be mostly country (of the Lyle Lovett/Willie Nelson/Merle Haggard variety), jazz, motown and "frat rock" from the late 60''s/early 70''s (a la Sam & Dave, The Animals, etc.).
Since we''re getting married on the NH/VT border (technically in NH), I thought it might be cute to include little bottles of real Vermont maple syrup. I found a company near our reception site in VT that makes little 2-ounce bottles with your names and wedding date engraved on them. Super cute... What do you guys think?
Going with one of these ideas doesn''t preclude the other, but I was curious if y''all thought one of the ideas was bad and if you would do both, how could you combine the two into one package of sorts? I thought you could attach the placecards to the maple syrup containers and have the CD''s at everyone''s seat. Or just have both at everyone''s seat...
Let me know what you guys think!
