    Skip them? they really won't be missed, I assure you.

    but if you don't want to skip them something edible is always best.

    Favors aren't a requirement but we did personalized hand sanitizers during our microwedding this year. We plan on doing the same with our upcoming reception since COVID is still a huge thing.

    Im doing little bags of candy that say his favorite and her favorite and they will have our favorite candy in them. Something quick easy and most people will enjoy.

    We're skipping them, I don't think I've ever used someone's favor unless it was a food item lol

    I dont like food items that I don't know who handled them lol. Im wierd about that. So I'd rather have something one-time usable like a little candle or hand sanitizer. Not something reusable that I have to see "so and so forever" on it for the rest of my life, like personalized can koozies, etc.

    With only 21 days to go, I would give yourselves the gift of deciding not to do favors. Seriously. You will be better off without this stress and expense at this late date, and your guests won't even miss them.

    You can do key chains with a picture of you and your husband to be and give them to your guest.

    We’re doing a candy table with a bunch on candy and boxes that guests can fill themselves as our favors. 90% of the candy is all individually wrapped which is a plus. It was around $120 for 26 pounds of candy

    Unless you go edible, skip them and use the money for something guests actually remember: good food, free drinks, great dj, or use it for photo/video for your own memories.

    You don't have to do them. If you want you can skip them. But if you do get favors get edible ones. People will eat them at the wedding or take them home. I wouldn't waste my money on something like a personalized glass, bottle opener, or Keychain. Let's be honest nobody is going to keep something like that that has your wedding date and name on it unless it's like your mom or dad. Most get left behind or eventually thrown out.

    Since our wedding isn’t super big. ( bc this could get expensive for a large crowd) We are doing little jars filled with honey. Who doesn’t love honey?!

    I found $1 Mason Jar Candles at the Dollar Tree! They were the perfect size. You could probably find something similar at Walmart, Dollar General, or a Family Dollar. We made our own labels on the computer that said Let Love Glow.

    As Yasmine mentioned, hand sanitizers are also very popular right now!

    Chapstick has new Life Moments Toast to Love tubes that are designed for weddings! You can get them in 10 packs from Target right now Smiley smile It says they can be shipped and arrive in 2-3 days if you are in a hurry! I considered these because of how lightweight they are. It'd be so easy to set them in a cute basket and be done!
