This is a very common question. There is no set rule to giving a favor. It all depends on your budget, the overall theme of your wedding, and the item you would like to give. Here are some guidelines to help you.

One Favor given to each couple

• Giving one item per couple is the most common method of giving favor. This method tends to be cheaper in the end. Save even more money by giving a favor that does double duty such as a picture frame. Use it as a place holder during the wedding, and then your guests can take it home and put their favorite picture in it.
• This method also offers to be used for large or fundamental keepsakes such as personalized items, coasters, bottle stoppers, and bottles of wine.

One Favor given to each person

• This method is more popular for large budget weddings or when the favors are smaller or not a substantive. Use the favor as part of the table décor to cut down on decorating costs.
• Use this method for small or edible items such as chocolates, candy, or almonds.

Different favors for men and women

• This is a modern twist on giving a favor and happens to be my favorite. Give one item to the men and give a different item to the women. This method offers a great way to compromise when you can not decide which item to give. Stick with your budget; you do not have to give two large or fundamental items.
• This method is common when you would like to give anible gift such as chocolates or almonds and a keepsake such as a bottle stopper or a set of coasters. Place the editable favor at the women's place setting and the keepsake at the men's place setting.
• For single guests – either give them a favor depending on their gender or give the more fundamental gift.

Other helpful hints:

Do not forget to buy a couple extra for those last minute additions to the guest list. Also, send a favor with your thank you note to guests who sent a gift but could not attend the wedding. It will make them feel appreciated even though they could not be there on your special day.

Follow your budget and do not forget that favours (and how to give them) are as individual as each wedding couple. It's your way of saying thank you for being with us on our special day. Give something thought and you can not go wrong!
