Favors...yes or no?

Favors are definitely not necessary! You can skip them altogether and no one will miss them (most guests probably won't even notice)

Absolutely cut favors, no one cares. There are VERY few people who need or want the most common favors, especially if they have someone else's names/date/etc. on them. Treat your guests as best you can with a nice meal, beverages, dancing and fun, and they will be more than happy!

Nope not necessary! I bought mints off etsy that say "mint to be" For each plate seating but I only paid $40 for over 100.

As PPs mentioned, they're not necessary at all! Your guests won't miss them.

A lot of guests throw them out anyways totally not an expense to be made if you don't have the extra money or want to spend the extra money

Feel more than welcome to cut the favors! The reception is a thank you to guests anyway

No you don't have to!!

a nice alternative would be to donate to a charity in lieu of favors. then at the place settings just have a small card that says something like "thank you for sharing our amazing day with us! in lieu of favors we have donated to (insert charity of your choice) in honor of our guests. "

Cut the favors! They are not necessary and guests will not even notice not receiving one. I always end up throwing my favors away.

I think you have your answer - no need for favors. We were planning on doing favors but after researching, we learned people just don't care about favors unless they're edible. (Search Reddit to see what people truly think about wedding favors.) So if you want to provide a little station with cookies or cupcakes or candies or something like that (and can keep it low cost) that would be the max effort needed for favors. But if you don't care, and you're throwing a kick-@$$ party anyway, then nix them. Nobody will miss them.

Favors are totally not necessary - don't even give it another thought if you need to cut something!

Favors are definitely not required. If you have them, great. If not, chances are no one will miss them or even notice.

I wouldn't do favors! I was at a wedding last month and even though the favors were already at the place seatings, I completely forgot to take it home.
