If your favors are a little larger, or you don’t want to have them on the table you can have a decorated box which has a sign saying “Thank You” or "Please Take One" for when your guests leave the reception. If you are worried that your guests may forget the box, or miss the box, then you may have your waiters pass them to your guests after dinner
The Cost of Favors
How much you spend on your favors depends on you, but you can easily get favors from as low as 99c. When you're buying your favors you should always remember that in most cases buying in bulk is usually cheaper than buying smaller amounts.
If you have chosen to give more expensive favors to your guests, then a good way to cut costs is to give one favor per couple, this should enable you to keep your costs down. Just remember to work your favors into your budget.
