Opinion on Magnet favors?

My vote is no. Usually I see save the date magnets with e-photo on them. I think food, candy, chocolate - homemade cookies? is always a good thing.

Yeah, I would lean more towards the edible. Think of your girlfriend...if she were getting married, would you want a (magnet, frame, etc) of them on your (refrigerator, table, etc)? Favors are a way of saying thank you for coming, but not necessarily something a person needs to keep forever.

Our ceremony is going to be outside at this gazebo on the lake, and then we're having our ceremony at a new catering reception hall. It will be indoors and outdoors. The outside will have a big white tent with the chinese lanterns. My napkins are going to be pool blue with a black table cloth(white under that) My BM dresses are pool blue. I guess I don't really have a theme, other than those colors (black and pool)

I like the candy buffets where people can take their own baggy and choose what they want, but that's so expensive. I want something cute, but different at the same time. ughh, idk! thanks ladies, you make a good point!

We are setting up a photo booth for our favor. I agree though, the magnet should be the STD and not a wedding favor.

What kind of budget are you on?

I agree with and edible favor. How many guests are you having? A candy buffet really isn't that expensive. You can get huge bags of candy at Wal-Mart or if you have a membership to Sam's Club, Costco, or BJ's you can get some at a great price.

We got these wedding favors, they grow flowers out of the heart. I figure the more we have left over the more flowers I can add to my garden and reasonably priced!

We are doing little heart magnets with a "K" (fiancé's last name intial) and the date. Small and affordable yet cute. I got one handmade at a friend's wedding 3 years ago and still use it on my fridge to this day!! I got my wooden hearts very cheap at Michael's, a pack of magnet strips on Amazon, and my MOH is making them with her cricut. $50 total for 160 magnets.
