Do I give a favor to each person or each couple? Im on a budget and don't want to spend too much on favors but i don't want to look cheap either...does anyone have any ideas?

    Its up to you, and you can base it on the cost of your favor.  We had looked at a few options, and if we went for the pricier ones we would have done 1 per couple.  If they are cheaper then 1 per guest. 

    Also, it depends on what the favor is itself.  If its a wine stoppper, then each couple definitely only needs 1.  If its a candy bar though, I would do 1 per guest.  Just think "would FI and I want 2 of these?"

    We ended up doing 1 per guest though.  We had a photobooth, and did frames for the strips that were really cheap.

    Don't do one!  You are already spending lots of money on these people with food and entertainment, you don't need to spend a couple bucks more on some trinket that is really mostly unappreciated by most.

    Millersbest- I find your sig statement very rude and offensive.  There are many same-sex couples on this site, and I hope they haven't had to see your sig.  I find it hard to believe that a grown adult could be so offensive.

    If you want to do favors - usually it is one per couple unless food - then usually it is per guest.

    On another note -I agree with pp. If us KNOT ppl are so 'gay' then why be on here?

    Usually if it's an object, one per couple.  Edible favors, one per guest.  I also find that comment out of place.  But I guess considering the fact that you are a knot member yourself, you were only speaking about your own persona.

    I think it depends on what it is. If it's something that is easily shared by two people than I think 1 per couple is fine. But if it's something like a piece of chocolate than I think each guest should get one.

    I did mini-champagne bottles and I did one per couple; and a candy bar where I did one per guest.

    I think it should be per couple, because do you really think Men care?

    Try and get something usable.  I did shot glasses with our names and wedding date.
