How much to spend on EPARTY FAVORS vs. WEDDING FAVORS????

This weekend we have to find favors! And i'm stressed ~~~~~~> party is

DECEMBER 12TH! Right around the corner.

How much do you spend usually on favors?

I was thinking of chocolates....my FI recommended wine however I was considering that for the wedding so I don't want to use up that option!

I want to do something creative & useful...however...the creativity cells aren't functioning this week.

HELP!

I wouldn't do wine for the eparty favor. Go with something smaller. We had little personalized coffe packets that were under $1 each. I think a 2 pack of truffles from Godiva would be nice as a gift.

we're doing personalized coffee mugs. we're having the eparty at my parents bed and breakfast and we wanna serve lots of soup (since its already cold and snowing up there) and since we didn't want to have to rent bowls and mugs are easy to walk around with we figured might as well make those the favor..

plus we're getting a bunch for my parents with their logo on them as a thank you gift but shh!

some of the mugs we found we're only like 1.50 each.

I got them from theknot.com when they were the deal of the day. I got them in about a week. They were a huge hit. Loved the perfect blend on top with our names. Cheesy and cute all at the same time.

Here were the actual packets with our names. We put a blue ribbon on them.

Our engagement party favors were $6
and the wedding favors will be $15, on the high side but like I said FH loves to spend (waste) money!

What ideas do you have?
