Re: order extra favors
If you're sure you won't have more people and you're not worried about them getting lost/broken, I wouldn't. Some people probably won't take them and the hall will give them back (at least that's what happened for us!)

Re: order extra favors
i think it depends...for us, our favors were lotto tickets and wine bottles. i ordered extra bc i wanted to keep some for a keepsake and i knew i wouldnt get many back. i actually got nothing back so im glad i did order extra.

I figured I will probably end up getting some back since alot of people dont take the favors.

Good point, it definitely depends what your favors are!! If it's something edible I might order more, but if it's something like coasters or something, that you wouldn't want a whole bunch of hanging around, I would order maybe 1 or 2 extra...

Re: order extra favors
I ordered an extra 25
We did Lenox bud vases and for everyone that couldnt attend and sent a gift we sent a favor to. I had an extra 8 so i gave an extra one to my sisters, my sister in law, mother in law, mom and aunt. I kept a few for a keepsake.

Re: order extra favors
I ordered 10 more (1 per couple) than my expected just to be safe so I say go for it, better to have a bit too many than too little~

Re: order extra favors
mine were in big boxes so they were handed to guests as they left and a few asked me for an extra for someone who didn't attend... which I wasn't thrilled about, but you can't say no... I'm glad I had extras on hand!

Re: order extra favors
I ordered my favors so far in advance that we have an INSANE amount of extras! I have no clue what we're doing with all of them, but I'll worry about that later!
