I want favors that are "Australian" to make the wedding a bit more personal...err the reception. It's ok if it's typical "American"ized AUssie stuff...I know how the typical American thinks.

Right now all i've got are personalized wine labels on bottles of Aussie wine.

Any other idea? Hmm cadbury chocolate maybe?

Finally finished with immigration in 2012!

Hey Karo

Not sure if you can get them there easily, but what about lil boomerangs.

Or, I found these post-12204-1153209948_thumb.jpg

http://www.herweddingfavors.com/beach-combers-flip-flop-place-card-holders.html

Not solely aussie but we are big on thongs (flip flops)

On a side note for the tables.....

Do you know anyone in San Diego that you can get cut pieces of bottle brush. They are very traditional aussie plants and I noticed they have been imported to there.

You can find me on FBI

An overview of Security Name Checks And Administrative Review at Service Center, NVC & Consulate levels.
