Candles are usually the most romantic centerpiece you can get for the money. For favors feel free to check out the "Wedding Favors" page on my website at Todays Destination Weddings - Planning - Suggestions There are some very cute affordable favors listed there.

Congratulations and best wishes!

We are making a charitable contribution in lieu of traditional wedding favors. I have seen it at a few other weddings and it was well accepted by all the guests. With traditional wedding favors, many guests don’t take them and I personally feel it ends up being a waste of money. At least with a donation you know your money is going to good use.

My fiancé and I are donating to the Jonsson Cancer Center Foundation at UCLA. They are a great organization and they made it really easy to donate. They are also providing us with favor cards that we can use at our reception. So that way guests do have something tangible to take with them. Check them out: UCLA's Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center : Wedding Donations

We are doing 12 in glass mirrors in the center of our tables. On top of that, we are putting different vases (hurricane type in all shapes and sizes) on top of the mirrors. We have Orange votives (as my colors are burnt orange and champagne) to place inside along w/ that gelatine stuff so that the candle shines through the gelatine as well as reflects light off the glass. There will also be flower petals around the center area and wedding confetti all over the table.

As far as favors go if you are an ebayer...you can get candy bar wrappers with your pics, names and dates for pretty cheap..having something cute and edible can never be wrong!

Here is a site with a bunch of nice Fall wedding favors. We are having a fall wedding also and I have been shopping online and found a few elegant ideas. I loved the Autumn Book Mark Favors.

Two great articles that helped me:

Live Fish as Decor and Favors

AND...

Combining Decor as Favors (Helps saves money, and the potted plants idea is REALLY good).

Hello,

Check out www.theweddingshoppe.ca. They have an assortment of favours and other accessories. I would try to favours that aren't too vivid in colour...maybe candle favours that have a soft tint in one of your theme colours? I've been a wedding where EVERYTHING was dark purple, and while it was dramatic, it was also a bit overwhelming.
