Hi everyone,
The wedding has 150 invited guests, from 68 households, of course we won't know final numbers until much earlier and I don't plan to buy until maybe 6 weeks out. It's an outdoor evening wedding with kids in attendance as well, it will likely be mid 80s so I'm thinking chocolate or any other hard candy could potentially melt.
Ideally I'd like to spend under $300 but I can't really find anything that is standing out to me in my budget, so I'm debating going out of budget to maybe $400. I found some nice paper fans that double as programs for $200 (assuming all 150 come), we have custom plastic cups with our names, but that's really for the open bar and not really a favor.
I feel like it's not enough, but any add on that's super cute will go out of budget. Should I skip the programs (wedding & reception in one place) and just put it all toward finding other favors? Or is there any inexpensive favor you all recommend/ have loved at other peoples weddings.
I'm also debating skipping individual/group favors completely, and pooling it into a popcorn bar ($115), smores table ($125), or coffee bar ($175 Keurig), or a combo of any 2.
I'm open to ideas!
