Personalized Bud Vases
August 14, 2007

At first I thought that these we extra large shot glasses. But then I thought “Wait, what are flowers doing in shot glasses” I’m a genius like that. Did you know that I can also bend spoons with my mind?
While those powers are incredible, they aren’t quite as amazing as the gall that some brides and grooms must have when they think that their guests want some breakables engraved with other people’s initials.
These personalized bud vases are on sale for just $5.99 each at The Knot (minimum order of 12), smartly filed under the category ‘Unique Favors.’ Listen folks, if you’re buying a favor off of The Knot, it isn’t unique, even if it is engraved with your brand-new married initials.
If you want some decor that’s a bit more affordable (and easier to reuse) head on over to Ikea and grab 80 of the BATIST, FRAGIL, or TAJT?* They’re all considerably cheaper than the crap from The Knot.
*Even though I’m not known to break things, I will probably never ever EVER purchase something named FRAGIL. Even if it is misspelled.

Blech! Personalized wedding favors are so, well, annoying. You are so right–who wants something with someone else’s initials??

Yeah, I don’t like things engraved with my own name, let alone someone else’s.

Oh man your site is hilarious! I just came across it from one of the other wedding websites and I was laughing so hard because the last few entries are favors that I’ve seen recently (since I’m planning a bridal shower) and I thought very similar thoughts. Those vases are such a rip.

I like the shot glass idea for these. Fill ‘er to the brim with some Jameson.
But I don’t need a dozen of them. They’d probably go over big at a Frat party it seems.
