In Reply to: A duckie wedding after all! posted by Karen on May 10, 2003 at 20:46:05:
Karen,
I'm thrilled for you and your daughter! How wonderful that you found those ducks just in time. At my own wedding a few years ago, we gave a rubber duck and jordan almonds to each guest and everybody loved them. Adding to the fun was that for a couple years afterward we would visit our friends and family and spy "our" ducks in their bathrooms and other rooms. That always made us smile.
Best Wishes to you and your Daughter!
> For the last year I've been looking around for affordable duckies to use as favours for my daughter's wedding. She is also a collector and wanted everyone to take a duck home from her wedding. No luck at all. I looked into ordering them, but since we are in Canada, money exchange and shipping and duty almost doubled the price of the duckies. Disappointed, we resigned ourselves to duck decorations only. We dressed up some Schylling ducks as a bride and groom to preside over the guest book and have a bride and groom set for the top of the cake. It would have to do.
> Today, 8 days before the wedding, we were in a Looney Lizard dollar store getting some other stuff and there they were. Little bags of tongue ducks, four for a dollar. We have our duckie favours after all!
> When it comes to rubber duckies, never give up!
