Honestly I'd toss it. But I really don't keep any favors. I'm not sure I even kept them from my brother or BIL's weddings. Chat Icon

Re: Adult favors for 1st bday

ehh - I don't love it. I also don't think the adults need favors. Do the majority of them have children?

I wouldn't even bother doing favors for the adults. If you feel you need to, maybe just get candy bars made or lollipops.

I only did goodie bags for the kids but I included a professional wallet size picture in the thank you cards.

These are what I did for the adult favors. They are edible chocolate bars with Ella's name and birth date printed on it.

I will post pics when I get them from the photographer. I am still waiting on pics from her.

Truthfully I would pass.
Edible is always good. I didnt do adult favors cause I wanted the focus on the kiddies but when we do our adult party it will be chocolate--

I strongly believe in edible favors that I don't have to keep around the house for months until the guilt subsides & I have to throw it away.

in that case - yes - I would absolutely do favors.

Are you having the party in December? Do something Christmas related. For Jack's Christening I gave out beautiful Lenox cross ornaments

Re: Adult favors for 1st bday

I agree that something edible would be good. I'd just throw away a gumball machine because I don't lke to have too much stuff around the house.

You are doing a candyland theme, right?

What about big lollypops with a "S" on them, any type of candy would be good.

I also like the idea of a small picture frame with a 1 year old picture in it...that I'd keep.
