Help! Table favors - are matches outdated?

I wouldn't bother honestly. So many will get left behind! Put that $$$ towards food or something that will enhance your guests experience.

I totally still use matches for lighting candles at home!! I'd love this as a favor!

I'm doing them for my youngest daughter's reception. Mainly because my DH is setting up a cigar bar for the groom. We will have cigar lighters as well (not favors, just good lighters to use) but I thought the matches would make a nice touch, and even though I'm typically all for skipping favors, I personally would take the matches to keep by my candles. Since it has sentimental value to you, I would go for it!

I'd rather get matches than some of the other silly favors I've seen at weddings, if we're talking about non-edible things. At least I can use matches, and I don't think there's any expectation by the couple that they will be kept forever, knowing that people will throw them away when the book is empty.

I think these are adorable!! I'd love getting them as a favor

I do also agree that favors are absolutely unnecessary. If they work with your budget and you want them, then hell yes, these are too cute!! But if the answer to either of those is no, then no one will miss them.

I'm not sure if we will do favors at all, but matches are a contender. Everyone uses matches, or at least has a stash in case of a power outage. This is something I'd like to see the couple's name on as well. It's not right in your face every day like a wine glass, but it can make you smile when you pull them out to use once in a while!
