Need help with Favor Ideas - Long Island Weddings

We're doing bottles of personalized BBQ sauce since we both love BBQ and our wedding is on the 4th of July. FH dreams of making the sauce from scratch but I think we will just buy bulk! lol

I got a quote for the olive oil/vinegar. Here's what she said:

The 60mL mini bottles usually retail for $4.95 per bottle (that is for any flavor except the truffle oils and the gourmet oils.) Please note that this pricing does not include any special packaging. (We can package for you, but usually it is more cost efficient for you if we provide the bottles and you package on your own. If packaging is something you are interested in please let me know and I can give you more information on that.) We offer volume discounts as follows:

50-100 favors = 10% discount
101-150 favors = 15% discount
151 favors and up = 20% discount

We also have the next size up bottle which is the 100mL bottle. They usually retail for $8.99 per bottle. The volume discount listed above could also be extended to you for this size as well.

I am starting to think about favors. I have no clue what I want to do. I don't mind DIY or getting something already done. I was thinking maybe something edible/drinkable but not sure what. I don't want something that is going to be a waste that people always get or will just throw away. Does anyone have any ideas? I am open to anything. Thank you now for your ideas :)

I personally don't even eat the edible favors when I go to weddings, and notice that many other people don't either. There is so much food at long island weddings to begin with, so any treats will probably get left on the table! Our photobooth will be a favor because they get the photostrips, and we decided to make a charitable donation and print cards saying that in lieu of favors we decided to make a donation in their behalf. I feel like the favor money is going to a better place than on another food item
