Remember cootie catchers? They were those folded paper “fortune tellers” that usually made the rounds during 5th grade recess. Well, they’re all 
grown up and are now making the rounds on the wedding circuit. I saw these cute cootie catcher favors in the April/May 2007 Brides Magazine UK- they’re from a British company called Cox & Cox, and are available for around 25€ for 30 favors. Unlike their kiddie counterparts, each “fortune” of these origami favors is a romantic French saying.
If you like the idea, but aren’t planning a wedding, how about customizing your cooties? (Didn’t know you could, didya?) Caroline’s Fortunehearts is the DC-based company of graphic artist Caroline Armijo. She designs personalized cootie catchers that you can download and print at home. These are great for weddings, showers or birthday parties- and are only $30 for the design and the rights to print as many as you want.
My fiance and I have decided to have a moulin rouge themed wedding as “come what may” would always have been our song for our first dance and also as it is a favourite film of mine. Would you have any additional ideas that we could incorporate in to the service (very subtly obviously) and any fun ideas for the reception.
