We've decided that instead of giving away cake(friend did it, too messy and cliche(altho i love the concept) or the newsppr and donuts/bagels (cousins did it and too many of the same ppl invited) we're giving to-go cups with the java jackets/coffee sleeves. We're having a hot chocolate bar bc we both love hot chocolate and there are so many fun toppings, etc....also, coffee with the flavor syrups, flavored whipped cream, etc....
so, when ppl are leaving at the end of the night they can take coffee or hot chococlate to go.
Now: what should the java jackets say????
Just our names and the date? or some witty something that i can't come up with? "Thanks so much see you at brunch" doesn't work bc not everyone is invited to brunch.
The event is black tie and there are about 280 ppl coming. the colors are black gold and white and the java jackets will be white with gold(we're hoping) printing.
i've seen the word "sweet" used a lot for take-aways (mostly candy "bars" but it could work for hot choc too)... like "sweet dreams compliments of the newlyweds" or "life is sweet, enjoy your treat" or "a sweet goddnight"... things like that. or you could do something using the word "warm"... like "warm wishes from the bride and groom" or something.
i'll try and think of more ideas. very cute!

i LOVE "warm wishes from the bride and groom" !!!! LOVE IT! esp since the coffee holder thingy is to protect you from the heat of the cup!
