Favors - Legal Ones!



Picking out favors is a difficult task. We all want something that fits the decor, isn't crazy expensive, and that our guests won't throw away a week later. For me, the obvious choice would have been to cook/bake something, since both Mr. Tango and I love cooking. Here comes the problem: We can't legally bring food to Panama. We also can't legally bring in any sort of plant/tree, which would have been our second choice.

Our latest thinking is to do something very different - like Chinese sky lanterns. You give one per couple, they make a wish (and/or write it on the outside), light it, and let it fly into the sky. That way, they can keep it if they want, or release it in a big group - making for some beautiful pictures and a fun time. On an important side note - they're cheap and biodegradable!


What do you think? Is it selfish to have a favor that probably won't be taken home by the guests? Should we stick with more traditional favors? We were thinking maybe flip-flops or something related to coconuts (which we'd have to buy there).... So many options!
