Hey, invite the bride to the board.

We recruit ...... TE members that is

Then there's the gown

Oh, yeah...


I don't have many ideas for wedding favors. That wasn't part of wedding supplies when I did the wedding-thing.

little plastic bike pins
Second the "Share the Road" bumperstickers (good for riders and drivers)
invitations to a coffee cruise ride
bike coffee mugs
bike bandanas

put the tchotchkes inside water bottles .....

Create a special gift at http://cafepress.com -- mugs, pins, badges, whatever. It can have a bicycle design, logo, or pic of the happy couple on bikes. The options are wide open!

What about little bike bells? Is there such a thing as inexpensive ones? Might be fun to "ding-ding-ding" as the bride and groom dash off for their bikes.

my brother and his wife had water bottles printed with their name and date. They were even full of water for the drive home.

oooh.. more good ideas. Sent them off to the bride for her judgement

Do they make small sample sizes of Butt'r?

bike bandanas

Hmmmm. Bandanas? What's with you and bandanas? You had another post about picking up a lost bandana out of a mudpuddle. Are you short on bandanas? I have 5 spare (blue, pink, lilac, white). 4 are sewn together into a Cinderella rag "skirt", but I could pick out the stitches easily enough. Interested?

Now back to wedding tchotchkes everybody. Don't want to start another Thread Drift

Could you make place card holders by bending old spokes (maybe picked up from LBSs)? New spokes are prob'ly too expensive for that.
Easy enough to find bike images on-line to copy onto the place cards. Or use personal snaps from a ride the couple have done together.
I like the bell idea. Could be combined with the tiny flashing lights instead of candles while waving the couple off into the night.

She wears them sometimes, looks great. Knott I have a Wildflower route sheet bandana, mamogram bandana. interested? .... back to wedding planning.

I don't think of bandanas as bike'ey" sure, I carry one sometimes but you risk it visualy saying "cowboy" not bike.

Not that there's anything wrong with that
