Repost from '10 Favor question

To the girls that have ordered favors already- How did you figure out how many favors you needed before you got you final RSVP count? I am not ready to order them yet but I am afraid that I wont order enough or order too many

I just got extras. We did reusable grocery bags and got 200 of them. We ended up with 110 at the wedding, but they were super useful anyway. I used them for OOT guest bags, and have given several away to people who couldn't make it to the wedding too.

What is your item? Is it something you can return / resell / use if you end up with fewer people than expected?

I got extra. We are doing wine bottles (1 large bottle per couple). We bought 11 cases (132 bottles) and are having 180 guests...some are going to be single guests and 180 is simply our min. so we could have more people. This is why we had to get more than 90.
