Favors

Guest favors and takeaways — what they are, and how they reach each guest.

Also called: favors, takeaways, guest gifts.

When couples book this

Usually booked about 4 months out. It moves with your date.

Your wishlist, before you talk to anyone

Questions you can answer early — they become the yardstick you compare candidates against.

What kind of favor are you dreaming of?
Wishlist mirror of the favor_type candidate fact below.
Do you want the favors personalized?
Anything that matters in how they're made?

What to ask each candidate

Facts that differ from one vendor to the next — worth writing down while you shop.

What's the favor?
Edible favors pull the allergen note below into play; perishables shape the delivery timing.

What settles once booked

The working details you and your vendor pin down together.

One favor per guest, or one per household?
Switches what the quantity derivation counts — guests or households.
How many favors?
DERIVED — the couple never counts favors by hand. Overriding stops recomputation.
Allergies to keep in mind
Personalization
How do the favors get to the venue?
Where do favors go?
What time do they arrive?
The time you agreed together, not an estimate worked back from the ceremony.
What time do they finish?
Who do you call on the day?
The name and cell number of whoever is on site — not the office line.
Where do they come in, and where do they park?
The load-in door or dock, where the vehicles go, and who opens up.
Do they need a meal?
Counts toward your caterer's vendor-meal number.
What balance is due on the day?
Your own figure, from your contract — what is still owed when they arrive.
What gratuity are you planning?
Your own figure. It rides beside the balance on the day-of money sheet.
