I think a lot of us out there feel that way! It's like it's something you HAVE to do, even though for many of us it's not our style or doesn't fit our budget or we'd rather be creative in other ways.

It's almost taboo, isn't it, to say you don't want to do them?

In our case, our families would end up throwing most of it away, so we'd much rather put the money into something they will remember, like sailing!

I understand with 30 guests the cost adds up. I am doing an OOT bag per room/and or couple. I will have a few single people, but I do not think that I will have that many people at my wedding. I am definetly on a budget and I must start buying a little at a time. Good Luck! Remember - Have fun. Don't sweat the small stuff.

We're also doing a charity donation to the American Cancer Society instead of favors. I've had to travel for a lot of my friends weddings because they all got married in Boston this summer right after my fiance and moved to Texas...and quite honestly, I felt terrible but the favors always ended up in the hotel room trash can (except the edible ones)...I probably shouldn't have just admitted that hahaha
Hi Lilly129! Could you please share where you're getting your truffles? I was thinking the same thing, getting some Mexican chocolate or coffee or something along those lines.
