we're having a viennese buffet and i want to know if it's tacky if we don't give out favors?

we were originally planning on giving out edible favors (like cupcake or chocolate) BUT i went through our RH contract last night and we have a very extensive viennese buffet! it has candies, cupcakes and even ice cream (how could i have forgoten about that?!). i feel like we're already offering a lot to our guests that no other favor can top it!

so, with that in mind, is it ok if we don't have any favor???

ITA! I never cared for favors and am choosing not to do it at my wedding.

I know this might sound horrible and a lot of people disagree, but to me, the entire wedding is the favor!!!! I never expect to get some crazy favor, I mean you have a night of delicious food, free drinks, amazing music and great company... I don't need something that I am just going to throw away in a week to show me that the people getting married cared about me enough to have me at their wedding!

Will they allow your guests to take things home from the V hour though? I have never heard of this! If this is the case I am definitely going to do that!

I think it's fine. Just get the boxes for the guests to take stuff home. maybe you can get cute monogram stickers to seal them closed.

ITA with this!

Love this idea!!

Love this idea also, very cute!!

I personally hate favors and i usually through most out but i still feel compelled to have them bc you know you are going to have that annoying great aunt who is going say , the wedding was wonderful but we didnt get a favor, and then complain about it to your whole family!
