## Common questions

**Do wedding guests expect favors?**  
Not always. Many couples choose a small, useful favor guests will finish or reuse, or they skip favors and make a donation instead. A thank-you card is the one thing every guest should still receive. Match the favor to your guest list size so leftovers stay manageable.

**What should go on a wedding favor?**  
The couple's names or monogram and the wedding date. Keep the text short so it fits coasters, tags, and tote prints. Match the design style to your invitations so the favor feels part of the same celebration.

**How early should I order wedding favors?**  
Six to eight weeks before the wedding, so there's time to check the proof and assemble everything.
