Bridal Shower Favor Idea from Wedding 101, Nashville’s New Wedding Boutique

Monday, August 17, 2009

Monday, August 17, 2009 On Friday, I went to preview Wedding 101 and it was so exciting!  As I stated last week, I wasn't able to attend the vendor preview but I do hope that you at got to go to the grand opening Saturday. If you haven't checked it out, here's how the boutique looks.

 

When I arrived on Friday, Ashley was on the phone and told me to get a party favor as I waited.  She directed me to a table with 3 apothecary jars that were half-filled with brightly colored balls.  The table had empty tins...my first thought - what a cute candy bar!  But it wasnt:).  Ashley ended her call and told me the jars were filled with scented balls (not candy).  Ahhh...got it now:).

new candy bar idea

 Just like a candy bar, the scent bar would have a tin for filling with scented beads, mini candle, a favor bag with a cute label

As I created my "scented sachets" tin - I thought - no, this isn't a candy bar but it could definitely be a scented favor bar.  I told Ashley and a new fun bar was born!

Wedding 101's favor bag includes confetti, travel candle, tin with beads and a label - so cute

I think this would be a great idea for a bridal shower.  Maybe you could allow your bridesmaids to create scented tins of their own.  The bar would be just as cute and interactive as a candy bar but for zero calories!  Plus, the scented sachets would last longer than candy.  The only concern is that people might mistake it for candy - so beware! Wedding 101's scented balls and candles would be a great place to start if you are interested in seeing it in action or buying the supplies.  Ashley said they would definitely help you create a scented sachet bar for your wedding.  There are like 7 fragrances available.  My favorite is the sunshine!  You can rent the jars, buy the sachets and even buy coordinating Botanicus travel candles to match. As you see, Wedding 101 is not only a library of info but also has a retail area too.  I'll be hanging out there a lot and I promise,  ABG and 101 will collaborate to make planning your Nashville wedding easier and even more fun and fab!
