For our wedding favors I partnered with Beau-Coup for affordable practical gifts for my guests. Let me preface this by saying favors for your guests are something that are completely optional! You are paying for their meals and an evening of entertainment, so if this is something that is not in your budget, do not do it! No one will ever think twice about it.
For our wedding, our budget didn’t allow for us to serve alcohol at the reception, so I wanted to give my guests something that they could go home with and have a drink on us. Beau-Coup offers so many options for gifts ranging from wine glasses to candy and even salt and pepper shakers, many of which are customizable.
The hardest part was actually choosing the favors I wanted. Beau-Coup had endless possibilities. Once I ordered, I was very concerned about them making it all in one piece since they were very fragile, but there wasn’t a single glass broken. I also LOVED that the monograms were perfect and matched all of the other monograms we had.
I think favors are a nice way to say thank you to your guests and Beau-Coup offers favors as low as $0.28 each so it could definitely be squeezed into your budget if needed.
What do you think about wedding favors? Worth it or a waste of money? Let me know in the comments below!

We had a photobooth for our wedding, so the “gifts” were all the print outs of the photobooth pics they took! I love this idea, too! My cousin just did this actually for her shower, and she had coozies with their monogram for the wedding. Super fun/cute/usable idea!

For our wedding cake is included on our wedding package, but my aunt is a baker and I can’t imagine not having her cake at my wedding. So instead of the cake that is included we are getting cupcakes from that bakery and sending them home as a late night treat/favor. No extra money spent! Except for little cupcake boxes to take them home in and maybe a sticker to put on the box. It worked out great!
