How do I know the # of wedding favors to order?

I need to order them within the month and obviously won't have my final count.

What is a safe # to order with out spending too much extra on favors?

We are inviting approximately 250 people. Just cut in half or is that too much? We do have some single guests.

TIA

I would say however many invites you sent out is how many favors you should buy.

Me too, b/c even if they do respond no they may send or give a gift anyway and then you should have a favor for them.
