Ok so i brought up the caricature artist idea to DF and he isn't sold. He doesn't think everyone would appreciate it... meaning his family.
They aren't very open to things like that, so i started my search for another option... i'm not counting out doing the caricatures just yet though.
I was looking through the favors thread on the wedding boards and i saw what RPMDFW used and i LOVE them!!! Df said that one of the things that reminded him of beach boardwalks was the nightly fireworks (partly because they drive our dogs nut every night in the summer
) He asked about moving the reception time to later so we could watch the fireworks from the attic but when i told him the minimum went up he said "Nah"
Well these not only look like little fireworks but they'd double as favors AND centerpieces! What do you think?
this is just one they have on their website but they can custom make one to match your colors!
So i'd do it in these colors!!
If they can deliver them to me that would awesome because i dont know how i'd get them to the attic from home. But it goes with the candy that you get at the boardwalk, the colors, the theme, and it doubles as centerpieces
