1. I agree that the boxes are much more formal and they look really pretty. The organza is very overdone and it just gets thrown away. Most people will/can re-use the box for a small gift sometime down the road.
2. I think the boxes are more classy. Also, sometimes during transport, some of the chocolates may break apart and the organza would just get messy from the crumbs, while the boxes keep everything looking neat.
3. I think the boxes look more refined and you could even put a label on top with your names and the wedding date. it would look very pretty.
4. The boxes definitely look more elegant and formal, whereas the bags are o.k.
5. most people will keep and reuse the boxes and they look very formal and that is good if you wedding is formal or casual
6. I can feel your pain about this difficult decision. Let me help. The boxes look absolutely fabulous. I think they are marvelous. Plus, if you get married in the summer, and it is a hot day, no one will notice if some of those chocolates melt in the box. The boxes themselves are splendidly classy, and you can spice them up with a little ribbon. (btw, flutter the end of the ribbon for a nice twisting and curly loo. Those bags look drabby my dear. Don't use them. When I looked at them, the first thing I thought of was something I am probably not supposed to post on a family oriented site such as Y/A. But trust me on this one, my dear, the boxes are your better choice.
7. it's all very cute but dont you wan tto be a little bit more creative and do something other than kisses and M&M's! They are soooooooooo overdone! Why dont you wrap lollipops or by molds with your initial and melt chocolate into them for a personalized feel. There are so many things you can do with favors that to stick with the boring kisses and m&m's is such a shame! Depending on what month your wedding is another great cheap favor for fall weddings are easily made homemade caramel apples!
8. you could do both if you were loving both...... the m&m's in the boxes the kisses in the bags i found some little glasses i might be using from oriental trading.com for my m&m's. i personally like the boxes and you could use a ribbon the colors of your wedding it looks very nice. good luck!!!!
9. i would say hershey kisses in the boxes.. would look very elligant and beautiful
10. I like the boxes. They are cute. I am going to do candy at my wedding and Im putting them in boxes.. instead of the little bags!!
11. The boxes are so cute! If you want something less formal, just use a more casual looking print ribbon.
