    They're for your guests :) I think they're meant to be a thank you for coming kinda thing?? People usually leave them on the tables for the guests to see when they sit down & it can be whatever you want, as small as you want. Sweets, keyrings etc xx

    A token of appreciation in the form of a treat or keepsake for your guests. I've seen everything from sweets to personalised charms to colouring books for the kids. Not essential but very popular :)

    traditional favours are a bag of 5 sugared almonds, they are meant to represent happiness, wealth, health, fertility and long life. I having chocolate kisses in a little jar but still sticking to the 5 pieces

    i think it is a little but lots of twists on that now. not 100% needed but a little personalised item for those to keep who want to always goes down well

    you can get organza bags on the bay quite cheap, then put in sweets of your choice - whatever your favourites are, or even personalise your napkins with a stamp

    I think if you decide to have wedding favours i think it should be personal to yourself. But there is a numerous of things you can do. As i am doing mini treasure chests with there names on.
