We wanted to give our guests something that they would use and enjoy, but at the same time represented us and what we enjoy day to day. What better gifts than coffee mugs and candy, right?
We ordered custom mugs with our wedding logo from DiscountMugs.com. They were delivered by a freight carrier, which was new for us. It was nice to see a tractor trailer in our neighborhood.
We ordered the clear boxes from PaperMart.com. They took FOREVER to assemble, so be prepared if you decided to use them. The mugs were padded with shredded paper. We bought a ream of fluorescent sheets (the Staples brand of AstroBright) and put them through an old shredder. (Just a note of caution, the shredder we used was REALLY old. The newer ones don't make thick strands like this one did for us.)

Unfortunately, we didn't get any closeup pics of the M&M candy tins fully assembled. But here are some pics of what we did manage to take photos of. The custom M&Ms came from mymms.com. They are definitely on the pricier side.
The tins (and the custom printed ribbon) came from eFavor Mart, the same site that did the beverage napkins.

We really liked the trend of the "candy bar" or "candy buffet," so we decided to include one too. The theme was to stay on the all black and white color palette, so we had to spray paint and manipulate a few things to make it work. It definitely worked!
