Do I need party favors for engagement party?

My family is throwing us an engagment party at a restaurant. It is in a small party room there and we're only having 50-80 people. It's going to be a buffet, nothing fancy. Do they need to get party favors for eveyone and what do you recommend if they do? I was thinking no.

Re: Do I need party favors for engagement party?

Leave it to FH to go overboard!!!!!!

We wanted to give these awesome cheeseboards but my luck...DISCONTINUED!!

So we went with the love letters collection love and roses candles. After doing epics last night, FH wants to also get cheap frames and give everyone a picture of us. When will the madness end?????????

Re: Do I need party favors for engagement party?

I think the chocolate idea seems cute. I guess it can't hurt to give a little something to show our gratitude.

Re: Do I need party favors for engagement party?

We didn't do favors, but we did have an open bar for whatever our guest wanted, whether it was a martini or a beer or a good aged wine.
