Could you consider this a wedding favor?....

If I had a chocolate fountain set up at my reception, could I consider this the favor and not set anything at each place setting for my guests?  I can't afford the fountain AND favors, but know I want to do edible favors, so I wonder if the fountain would suffice?....

I don't think I would want to take fountain-ed items home with me (huge mess alert!), so I wouldn't consider it a favor  However, since you're not required to provide favors and tons of people don't, I don't think it's a poblem to spend the money on that instead of favors if that's what you want.

Agree with previous posts

ditto PP.  Just do the chocolate fountain and don't worry about the favors.

I made this choice- chocolate fountain over favors for me!

Could not have said it better myself :)

ITA: make a choice with your budget that you have to, and no one expects favors.

What PP said.  Plus I'd rather be able to enjoy a fountain while we're there rather than take home some personalized stuff I'll probably never use.
