Gourmet Popcorn Favors from Too Haute Cowgirls

Okay, I know it is bright and early here (let’s just say I’m still working on my first cup of coffee), but somehow that doesn’t seem to have any bearing on the fact that I’m absolutely obsessing about how to get my hands on some of this popcorn. Because, dear readers, I know just how good it really tastes; the Too Haute Cowgirls were kind enough to bring samples by the mywedding office at one point, and I had to very politely sit on my hands in order to not shove the entire bag into my mouth (I don’t think I was the only one).

My personal favorite is their best-selling Fistful of Fleur de Sel, which is popcorn drenched in dark chocolate, topped with homemade toffee (now you understand about the hand-sitting…). They also have milk chocolate, peanut butter…

William Gives Advice on Favors, Gifts and Seating Etiquette

What is the most popular wedding favor going on right now? Something easy to make/put together. Jessica Elizabeth Raybuck

Dear Miss Raybuck,
A handmade wedding favor is always the best as it presents an even more sentimental value to your guests. Here are a few of my favorite DIY favors:

-Baked goods like cookies, candy or breads are great tagged with a message, such as “Baked with love for you. Thank you for sharing our day.”

-Plants, bulbs or seeds are great lasting favor options. A seed pack tagged with a message, such as “Watch us as we grow together“ is a very thoughtful gesture.

-A candy bar is a great interactive favor that guests love. Theme the bar according to color, shapes or flavors and you have a totally personalized take-away that won’t break the bank. Remember to personalize the sacks or boxes.

-Whatever favor you select
