Matchbooks and Napkins

Hey everyone... Are these important to have??? Are they expensive??? Will anyone miss them if I don't have them?? I am not sure if it is good to get them or not.

TIA

ETA: How many of each should you get???

I got them...they're definitely not necessary, just an added touch. But I really don't think anyone would miss them if you don't have them. If you get them when theknot.com is having their sales, they're not too expensive. I think I got mine when they were having their 100 for $14.99 sale or something like that.

I go back and forth with it. I am definitely not doing matchbooks but if I can find napkins that actually look eggplant and not grape-ish I would consider it.... It's a cute little touch that people will notice but if you don't have it I don't think your guests will be walking around asking each other 'Where are the friggin customized napkins?!?!?'

Re: Matchbooks and Napkins

I think they are cute but no they are def not necessary....i haven't decided yet whether or not I will do these...I am thinking about maybe doing napkins but not sure about the matchbooks.

Re: Matchbooks and Napkins

we're not doing napkins but we are doing matches. We have about 110 people coming so we'll probably get 100 since a lot of people don't smoke. We'll be in my parent's backyard so we're going to have out cigars for the guys and girls.

Re: Matchbooks and Napkins

I'm debating the matchbooks. I checked them out...for 100 it was like $17, but then after tax and shipping it came to $30, which seemed like alot for matchbooks. maybe 1 day if i have an extra $30 laying around ill get them

Re: Matchbooks and Napkins

i got them, but theyre really not necessary at all... i got them when they were on super sale on the knot, the napkins i think were like 12 or something and the matchbooks 15, i could be alittle wrong on the prices but they were pretty cheap nonetheless

Re: Matchbooks and Napkins

I plan on getting napkins but no matchbooks.

Re: Matchbooks and Napkins

They are definetily not necessary (sorry I can't spell that word!), they are just an extra touch. I'd say order 1 matchbox pp and 1.5-2 times napkins as people

Re: Matchbooks and Napkins

it was just another little extra thing that we got, we went for both the napkins and the matchbooks

Re: Matchbooks and Napkins

They are so so so not necessary. I have never been to a wedding where there were personalized napkins and matches. I am kicking myself because I have no idea why I bought the matches.. this site makes you do crazy things.

I only got 100 napkins and 100 matches. It's just for an added touch, not for everyone and their gma to take one.
