We weren't going to do favors at all because people don't normally take them and I thought they'd be a waste but I found a discount for flavored fortune cookies that seemed affordable and fun so I'm considering it. My fiance thinks it is not a good idea and here's why:
Our wedding is very formal with very gourmet and elegant food, a champagne signature drink and it's at an elegant high end hotel so it feels kind of princessy. He thinks that after the gourmet meal and cake that the flavored fortune cookies will seem really cheap and that it would be better not to have them because they won't be missed. He thought the cheap fortune cookie was not the best last impression considering how expensive the food is. He also said that fortune cookies don't fit with the theme or feel of our wedding.
What do you all think? Should we skip them or do you think people would appreciate getting a flavored fortune cookie?
Re: fortune cookies yes or no?
1) You don't have to do favors, but I think it's rude not to
2) I personally prefer edible favors that somehow relate to the couple and the fortune cookies just seem like an afterthought, so I don't really like the idea. Can you tell us a little bit about you and your FI so maybe we can help give you ideas?
3) How much are you looking to spend on favors (what's considered "affordable" to you may be completely over-the-top for the rest of us)... a price point can help us give you suggestions
