    i am getting organza bags from ebay around 100 for £8.

    And i am using chocolates that you get at tins at xmas, but you could always go to tesco and buy a variery pack of mini chocolate bars, if you keep your eye out for offers you can get them reallly cheap....

    Sugared almonds are always cheap too!

     

    It depends on what you want. Do you have a theme?

    well the only theme we arwe running is "Autumn".  The men are in the "Pride of Scotland - Autumn" kilts.  I must keep an eye on discount chocs in the supermarkets!!

    you can get a great offer on chocolates if you get them atthe right price.

     

    Do you know anybody that can go to a wholesaler for you? You could get a bulk load of something for the price of what you could pay in a supermarket for a quarter of the price.

    A friend of mine bought lots of love hearts and gift bags off ebay, was about £10 for about 100 people.

    For our wedding we are having Pin/Lapel badges from a charity which is closed to my heart - Diabetes UK.  It has worked out for 100 badges to be less than £50.  So we are going make a donation to make it up to £100.  We are going to pin the badge onto the name place card with a note saying something along the lines on "On your behalf we've made a donation to diabetes UK."
