Who gave the golden apple to Paris?

First off, the golden apple was given to Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of Love. Secondly, to answer the original question, the apple was given to Aphrodite by Eris, the goddess of Strife, who was enraged because nobody invited her to a party with the rest of the gods because of, well, her specialty, so she decided to do what she did best, and rolled the apple to the three major goddesses. The apple said "to the fairest" on it, and, of course, the goddesses argued over it. Paris was then sent there to judge, as he was renowned for his unbiased decisions, and his strength of character.
