Am I supposed to wait to see how many people are coming or should I just order them and take a guess

Re: favors when do i order?
I ordered as many invites that I sent out. Some guests who responded no send gifts- so I am sending them a favor. HTH

We guessed. We thought we'd have 150 couples so we bought 170 favors (just in case).

Hi date twin! I'm not ordering mine until I have about 90% of my responses back. So I'll around them around the end of this month or early next month. They should ship pretty quickly.

We ordered as many invites also - I don't know if we'll send the favors out, since they are bottles of wine, but I hardly doubt they will go to waste!

I waited. I spoke to who I was getting the favors from and asked for a deadline to place my order based on when I needed them. Try doing that so you can get a better idea of what you need (I did it so I didnt have to waste money)

i ordered mine like 6-7 months ago, but only because I caught a sale. since we are a month & a half away you should probably order pretty soon.

I am not sure if you need to have them wrapped, but I ordered mine in May because the wrapping is taking alot of time.

Same here. I got a good deal and didn't want to wait. Worse come to worse, I could always order more later. And it's also one less thing to worry about. I say cross anything off your list as soon as you can!

Re: favors when do i order?
we bought a little extra since some people will not be attending and my family likes to give out favors to who gave a gift and could not attend.
I also would order ASAP just incase your favors are back ordered or theres a problem you have enough time to fix it.

Re: favors when do i order?
I would suggest ordering them now don't wait for the responses. We waited until we had our headcount which I think was a huge mistake b/c we still had programs and seating cards to do and not to mention the other little miscellaneous errands that needed to be run. The good thing about the favors is people will always take more if you have any left over trust me they won't go to waste.
