we're lucky that our MOH and BM will also be the koumbari for our Greek wedding, and the koumbari pay for the favors...I haven't spoken to them about how much they are willing to spend on the favors, but I think it will probably be somewhere between $6 & $10 (1 favor per family)

Re: Favors
We're doing personalized wedding cd's of our favorite love songs. I found kits in AC Moore -- they include labels and lovely cream colored packaging for each cd. My sister has an industrial burner (no clue why -- she is a martial arts instructor and realtor!) and I got the blank cd's on clearance at staples. It will cost me like $75 to make 100. Then I plan to fill small italian boxes with chocolate hearts -- I want to place one on each plate setting. I found the boxes in a tiffany blue color (have to assemble them myself) and I'm still looking for the chocolate. I think those will run me $1 - 1.25 each.
I seriously thought about skipping them all together but both of our families are expecting favors.

Re: Favors
Favors are great, but I have been to weddings where they are left behind, people forget. I know we would love to do more,, but when it comes down to it, I think nothing says thanks than a hug or handshake better. We are having a $5 per couple favor. I am boxing and wrapping myself. So with that in mind probably $5.25 total each

WOW that's is VERY generous! I think FH would tie me up and put me in a dark closet if I spent that pp. We're giving other stuff too but DAMN!
ITs a BEAUTIFUL gift and a wonderful reminder of your day though.
