Hello ladies,
For my wedding favor my fiance and i have decided to give out coffee mugs. It will be designed with 2 hearts with "All You need is Love"
My concern is do I give out 1 favor per couple? or per guest?
I want to do per couple because I don't have 2 of the same mug in my house. Am I wrong?
I don't want people to think I am cheap by giving one favor per couple, but for this type of gift I would think one per couple would make sense.
Any advice is appreciated.
thank you
Re: Favors- per guest? or per couple?
I'm also at the other end of the spectrum, I prefer having at least a matched/coordinating pair.
But you might want to rethink this altogether. While you may like mis-matched coffee mugs, not everybody does and you could end up with a lot left over at the end of the evening. Why not take the graphic you are planning for the mugs and print it on labels that you could then use to seal bags of something edible?
I'm also in the "do something else" camp but I also think that one per couple is fine if you go with this. I think it needs something else though honestly--like maybe fill it with candy and wrap it with cellophane and tie it with a bow or something.
With All the Trimmings

<div>Ditto this 100%. In all honesty, I don't take trinket favors from weddings. It isn't that I am trying to be mean, but I have no use for odd coffee cups, candles, coasters, etc. Especially if it is personalized. I leave it so that maybe someone else who would like extra will be able to take mine. If I can't eat it, it usually stays behind.</div>

I've pretty much tossed/lost/broke any trinkety favors I've gotten from weddings. I've eaten the edible ones.
