I want to give cups as party favors, but not 100 to everyone, how can I do this?

With ease . . . Your cups will come packaged in a plastic sleeve of 25 cups per sleeve. (For an order of 100 there will be 4 sleeves of 25 cups, for an order of 250, there will be 10 sleeves of 25 cups.) See on the order form where it says order extra sleeves? Determine how many cups you wish to give each person/couple. If you are ordering 100 cups and you wish to “break them down” (cup lingo for breaking up the sleeves) and give each person 10 cups, you will need to order 6 extra sleeves. (Get it?)

Then you may separate them into sleeves of 10, tie them with a CUTE ribbon, maybe put a gift sticker or tag on them and VIOLA!, you have a great little favor. If you ordered 250 cups and you want to give each person 10 cups, you would have to order 15 extra sleeves. (Your order would arrive with 10 sleeves of 25 cups, 250 divided by 10 is 25, so you would need the additional 15 plastic sleeves to make 25 total sleeves of 10!)

At Christmas, this is also a great way to do gifts for school teachers, staff members, hostesses, manicurists, hairstylists, neighbors, coaches, Sunday school teachers, etc. They are also fun to put in gift baskets. Some other cute ideas than the ones above to put on “bulk” orders of cups are:

My wedding reception is outside, yet very formal. Is there a cup that would be appropriate for this?

Of course, there is! The Paper Dolls would suggest a Frost Flex cup for a wedding reception, perhaps with a beautiful silver monogram. Serving ice cream, get the 9 oz Frost Flex, serving cocktails, get the 14 oz Frost Flex to match, and don’t want those tacky brown beer bottles in your pictures, get the 16 oz Frost Flex as well. Then, order the napkins to match and you’ve got a look to die for.

What’s this about the “mashed potato bar” at a wedding reception?

You mean you’ve never heard of this? What about a coffee bar? Iced cream sundae bar? Yep, we’ve done cups for ‘em all! We use the 10 ounce foam for the ever-famous mashed potato bar because it’s big enough to put all of the toppings on, we use the 12 ounce foam for the coffee bar (don’t want any sloshing out) and a 10 clear for the sundae bar. All of them with the same matching monogram, of course! (If they were all for the same wedding, that is!)

My wedding is being held outside in the gardens of my parents home, Tara. Extra portable restrooms are being brought in (i.e. van-style -think the Masters golf tourney, not port-a-potty style). Is there any possible way to add elegance to these with paper products?

When functions are held at locations other than a country club (that supplies beautiful hand towels in the restroom) we always suggest you order monogrammed or personalized guest towels to put in the restrooms, perhaps that match or compliment your wedding napkins (and cups, or course). What could be uglier when dressed in formal wear than brown industrial paper towels pulled off of a roll?

My significant other and I entertain frequently on quite a grand scale, however, we never seem to have enough linen fingertip towels for all of the powder rooms. Are paper guest towels an acceptable option?

Well, if you do not have enough fine linen fingertip towels for each to only be used one time what other option do you have? Lovely printed paper guest towels are a welcomed sight in anyone’s powder room. What could be yuckier that an already used, unsanitary, limp, damp linen towel that is supposed to be shared by all 200 guests? Order disposable paper ones and all of your friends will be thanking you for their health!
