  It depends on what you are interested in. IF you are not buying in bulk then up to $3-$5 in most cases but if in bulk and really research you can do $1 or under (bigger orders= bigger discount) I am not doing any of that. I am doing a candy buffet, photobooth, and cookies (friend is making)

  I agree with the PP. It also depends on if you are going to do a little bag of candy or something more memorable that they can take home with them. Doing a little research on things you like will help

  I agree with PP. The average per person would be $3-$5

  This really depends on your budget.  I have no idea what the average is, but we basically set aside a few hundred dollars and broke that up per person.  So if you had $500 to spend on favors and maybe 150 guests, you'd be spending a little over $3 per person on favors.

  Hi,

  
  

  My sister-n-law and I recently opened up a favor boutique and we've found the average price for custom favors is between $3-$5 .

  
  

  Here's a link to our Etsy shop in case it triggers any ideas.

  Thanks,

  Carrie

  Haha, I feel cheap.  I'm going to try and DIY and keep it about $1 to $1.50 per guest.  While there is a lot of really cute stuff out there- so much of it was way more than we wanted to spend.  I'm going to give out hot cocoa that I've put in those clear cone-shaped bags, added marshmallows and maybe something else on top, and tie with ribbon. I'm having a winter wedding. so I feel like it fits my theme and maybe will actually get some use.

  Ditto.
  
  I spent less than a dollar per person.  We did two fortune cookies per person, one green, one blue.  The sentiment was customized and decided by MOH, my mom and MIL.  They went over really well and were delicious.  (I feel like I have posted this a ton of times).
