Hey, Are you guys doing a fan per seat, or per lady? I have enough todo 1 per person but I'm thinking I might downsize a little and just put every other seat and a few extra's. Do you think that is ok?

I'm putting mine on every seat.. I just don't want anyone to feel left out or not have a way to fan themselves rather than using orograms, etc. But I did read somewhere that a lady was going to do fans for the girls and hankies for the guys..

It's your wedding though, so I think it's def your choice. )

Thanks, ladies! This thread was very helpful! I began to have a mini-panic as well when I couldn't find any raffia fans. Problem solved!

what size fans did everyone order? I have seen 3 different sizes. I was also considering the folding fans so they would be easier for travel. Has anyone ordered these?

I've seen the folding ones, they would be perfect for travel since they are soo compact. I personally like the raffia ones more. I ordered mine from Orientaltrading.com. There was no size to choose from, they are just assorted. Most are the same size, but a few are larger and a few are like mini fans.

I like the look of the raffia one, too, but I am trying to be practical, too. I am trying to remember if the straw market on Grand Bahama Island had any of these fans. I think it would be nice to pick up something local for the guests.
