Wedding Favors- Yes or No?

Is anyone not doing wedding favors for their guests? My fiance and I are discussing not giving favors because they are just going to sit on people's shelves and collect dust. Plus we aren't doing a send off, we decided we're just going to quietly slip out with the help of our best man and MOH.

    Totally optional. I only been too a handful of weddings, but only one did they actually have favors. I also love your idea of quietly sneaking off, sounds romantic!

    We're mostly doing it so our two little ones don't freak out over us getting in the car and leaving without them lol we're going to say bye but after that they'll have a meltdown

    I do not want to do favors.
    I *think* FFIL wants to do them, he's mentioned them, but it's not in our budget. If he wants them, he can buy them, honestly.

    Not doing favors either! We might do a donation to charity in place of favors. Favors are so unnecessary. You are throwing a huge party and will be sending thank yous, so why are they needed?

    Hi, I’ve been thinking the exact same about our receptions. The last 3 weddings we’ve been to did not have favors. In place of a favor, we’re doing a photo booth and was thinking that would be a memento from our wedding.

    So FH is retired from the military, we found this idea from Pinterest. So we’re doing this as our wedding favors.

    We’re doing a photo booth and that’ll be favorable as it’ll get.
