Are the lids and handles really necessary? Thanks!

We went with a larger (18oz) plastic cup. Although I agree with Jackobelle in that they won't keep the drinks cold, I think people appreciate having more room for booze. lol

Something to consider would be the cheaper large plastic cups with Koozies that fit on them-- that was it is still cheap, but they stay a little more insulated.

Where did you find your mugs?

We have used a label maker and it has worked well. You can use the person's real name or a nick name...wedding date...personal message...whatever.

 

We also have purchased party straws...the resort does not use them and we like to sip our slushy drinks instead of tipping the cup.

 

Love the other ideas ladies! So creative!!

Charm idea is great! Where are you girls buying the mugs? I only need 35 and it seems alot of sites have min. quantities!

I am having the same issue with the mugs - we only need 20! Any ideas? I love the charm idea.

DH and I made custom 18 oz stadium cups for everyone-- we used large sparkly scrapbook stickers for the girls and permanent black letter for the boys. When we arrived we decorated them all with foam stickers of the beach-- too cute!

 

Anyway-- the foam stickers and the "permanent" black stickers stuck through pools, liquor spills, dishwashers-- you name it they stuck!

 

Purple didn't last the plane ride in.

 

My word of advice (and a cheap / easy solution) USE FOAM STICKERS!

Great Ash!! where did you buy your cups?

We actually bought them in two-packs from the Dollorama her in Calgary for $1.50/pk. They were AWESOME all week! I will post pics asap. Our guests LOVED them and they were everywhere-- even on night after the wedding. lol

Thanks for the ideas, I never thought about putting the guests names on the cups!
