Re: favors
I don't think there is a 'norm'. Some people spend $1 per favor, some people spend $10 or more. You should budget for favors the amount you can afford. HTH Like, I 'budgeted' $500 for favors, and mine came to $7.00/per couple for 120 people (I bought 65 favors). How many people are you having?

Re: favors
I would estimate about 70 couples maybe a little less...

Re: favors
so would you think a donation of $250 to each is appropriate?

Re: favors
thank you so much! It is so hard because with favors, you can shop around for the best deal but with donations, some people know what you spend.
