Our wedding favors, honest opinions please!
ok they are all wrapped and ready to give to our guests at our wedding in 2 weeks. I really should not even post this, but here it goes. How would you feel about getting these as a wedding favor? Having last minute doubts, and i think most people would love them but someone i told was like, "not that many people drink espresso". 
They are champagne colored and match my champagne/black theme. I am of course giving them out no matter what, as its too late to do anything about it nor would i want to, because i LOVE them and think its a great favor! But i was wondering what you girls would think so i can gage what my guests reactions would be. Thanks all!
PS they are a set of 6, the picture is missing one as it was outside the box on display.

Re: Our wedding favors, honest opinions please!
I think more people would use them than you think... they're a nice size and look like they would even be good for tea

Re: Our wedding favors, honest opinions please!
I think they are beautiful and would love to get them as a favor or any gift and I don't drink espresso but when I have people that come over and do I would serve them with those cups. Don't second guess them.

Re: Our wedding favors, honest opinions please!
I think they are very nice, I'd much rather receive a gift like that then a frame with wedding bells or a vase that I probably will never use.
Don't worry...they are a great gift!!!

Re: Our wedding favors, honest opinions please!
Thanks ladies.
I got them at the wedding coach in brooklyn, and they have a website. They come in sets of 2 as well. The 12 pc set was $13 per favor. But with wrapping the difference wasn't big one because this place throws in free wrapping for favors over 10 bucks, otherwise I would had to have paid for the wrapping too and it would have came out to $10 anyway.

Re: Our wedding favors, honest opinions please!
i love them!
as the other ladies have said, if people dont use them for espresso they can just display them bc they are lovely!
also i was thinking of doing mini espresso makers for my favor - bc FH and I really LOVE espresso - so its something that reflects what WE like and i think thats always a personal touch!
ETA: i just showed them to my mom and now she is like "Oh we found your favor"

Re: Our wedding favors, honest opinions please!
okay honest opinion... not a fan. BUT that is just me. They're too fancy for my taste and i don't drink espresso. BUT that's not to say that you can't find some other use for them somehow... use it for another drink, give it to your daughter or niece to use as a tea set, etc.
The important thing is... it's different and i know that i'm tired of getting the same old favors at weddings... so for that reason... I LOVE IT!

Re: Our wedding favors, honest opinions please!
that's awesome. even if you don't drink espresso, you can use it for something else - or even just for display. people would be crazy to not like them.
