hmmm maybe get maroon and grey (or silver) organza bags and fill them with candy/chocolates. or grey boxes tied with scarlet/maroon ribbons- they can be filled with candy as well.or seed packets of maroon/scarlet flowers tied with a grey ribbonit's better to give edible favors, inatimate objects become dust collectors

How about something silver like a bell or other silver trinket? Hershey's, M&Ms etc has personalized favors and you choose the colors.

Do edible favors in scarlet and grey packaging. I say that will always go over well. They now have fortune cookies that you can put your own messages in covered in chocolate and sprinkles in your colors. I like them a lot!http://www.fortunecookiestore.com/mall/c100/s2935/The only think I can really say is don't spend a ton of money on getting anything engraved or on small vases or picture frames or coasters. I'm noticing the more and more weddings I see or attend that at least half of the guest throw them away. I think thats sad b/c we do spend all this money on it but they'll do it anyway so we might as well make sure they actually use it again. Someone posted a question last night sometimes asking about the coolest favors ever. There were a lot of interesting ideas.I loved one where the bride asked each guest to send her their favorite recipe with the save the date cards and then she took them all and made each guest a cook book with tips, times, temperatures, and measurement equivalencies. I thought that was so super cool it would just take a lot of time to print all those pages off. She just designed a cover on the computer in her colors.Another one I love is the packets of seeds, they are super cheap and all you'd have to do is print off a custom saying to put on the back of each packet saying "may your love blossom and grow everyday" or something like that. Sticking them on is as easy as double sided tape.I've also seen place card and favors in one when the place cards with the names were made of plantable paper (it actually had seeds IN the PAPER!) it was really cool. At a beach themed one I got flip flops and it was something I was more than happy to use again they were so cute!Seed packets --> http://www.sanzospecialties.com/index.cfm?action=cat.prodInfo&productID=399&categoryID=105Plantable paper --> http://www.daisy-days.com/plenfa.htmlFlip Flops --> http://www.caririsflipflops.com/for-sale.htmlEdible --> http://wrappedhersheys.com/cat.cfm/ct/2?gclid=CPWI0NKo3pICFQQtswodlSRy-ghttp://www.cookiesbydesign.com/default.aspx?startpage=0&utm_id=GKW289&gclid=CKGZxdio3pICFQUilwodYRAf-Qhttp://www.hersheygifts.com/family/index.jsp?categoryId=2758864Hope one of my suggestions helps you out a little bit!!!Good luck picking your favors and congratulations!

A couple of cookies or chocolates in maroon boxes or bags with grey ribbon or a grey sticker embossed with your intitials would look lovely.

Everything About Your Wedding Wedding Marketplace Buy and sale all wedding related products. Where and How to Start? There’s so much to do, it can be mind-numbing. Don’t worry. I planned and held my first wedding in two months and my second wedding in three months. If you have the luxury of a year or more, feel lucky! Wedding Invitation Ideally, invitations should be mailed out 6-8 weeks before the big day to give guests time to make arrangements to attend and RSVP back to you. Wedding Attire Where I come from, buying a tuxedo is virtually unheard of. Renting is probably the way to go to realize the ultimate savings on the groom’s attire. Wedding Flowers Cheap doesn't mean that your wedding flowers can't be beautiful. All flowers are lovely no matter what they cost. Wedding Ceremony Decoration Most wedding ceremonies are short and sweet, so why spend a majority... Wedding Music Music for your wedding ceremony could consist of live or recorded performances. Wedding Photography Pictures are priceless, and you want to be sure you have plenty of good pictures of your special day. Wedding Favors Some brides don’t like the idea of giving gifts to her guests, but we think it’s a nice gesture as a thank you... Wedding Food Wedding food can take a huge chunk out of your wedding budget. Wedding Cake Your wedding cake is the centerpiece of the reception. It is a scrumptious dessert as well as part of a tradition Wedding Party The question of whether or not to serve alcohol at your wedding is one that can cause dissension in the ranks of family.
