Biggest hit at our wedding? The favors!

When we started thinking about favors for our wedding, we knew we wanted to do something really fun/cool...what better than Jones Sodas?! I mean, our last name is Jones after all!! Once we decided on fell in love with this idea, the obvious choice was to look into ordering personalized bottles from the company (because personalized bottles are so much cooler!). Unfortunately, they would have been close to $600 after shipping...not something we could afford. :(

Time to start brainstorming again, right? Wrong!! Why not make our own?! Mr Jones is a photographer and quite handy with Photoshop (if I do say so myself). This would be an easy project for him. After we talked it over and came up with a Game Plan, I tasked him with making the labels. I absolutely love how they turned out!!

And, our cost was a lot less - BONUS.

Labels - we made a different one for each flavor


Taking off the old labels...


And putting on new ones!


The finished product at our reception! :)



P.S. The barcodes were altered so the bottles cannot be returned for a deposit.

    Wow! That is the best favor I have ever seen! We did personalized cookies that we used for name cards as well! That is really very neat T!

    Those turned out great! What a clever idea. It's so cool that it's your actual last name too. :)

    How amazing! Score on having the handy talented groom to take on projects like this! I love Jones soda and had seen them as favors before. I wanted to offer them at each place setting in a red color to coordinate with our wedding colors. Unfortunately, we already have other favors and I couldn't justify an added expense. Love yours! And so great it goes perfect with your new name :)

    These are SO awesome! I wish our last name was "Jones" too! Did you put coasters under each one? Are they fabric or paper?
