Wedding favors are an item where either our couples come up with something creative or it each just brings added stress to their already busy schedules. We get asked a lot if they have to do favors, or what they should do.

We see a lot of creative ideas when it comes to favors which I think makes guests not want to leave them behind. But do you really need to have favors, when you are spending money already on food, drinks, and a night out for your guests to dance and have fun?

According to The Knot they say yes. Favors are your way of giving them a thank you to take home and remember their special night.

Something that we have seen a few times is couples giving money to a charity of their choice and letting their guests know that they decided to do this instead of a favor. A lot of the time it is a charity that means something to the two of you so it adds a special meaning to it.

Whatever you decide to do, remember your guests are there to share your special day, and just want to see you happy!
