DIY · UNDER $2 · BULK SUPPLIES
No, really. I priced out every supply at bulk quantities for 100-guest, 150-guest, and 200-guest weddings — so you can stop comparing tabs and start making.
Wedding favors are the easiest line item to overspend on. A single Etsy favor at $4 × 120 guests = $480. The exact same thing, made yourself from Amazon bulk supplies, runs $1.40 to $1.90 each — including the labels, ribbon, and packaging.
Below are twelve favors I've actually made or sourced, with the full Amazon shopping list under each. Every supply is linked directly. Pick one favor, copy the cart, you're done.
Palette inspiration: Cool Blue (Pinterest Predicts 2026) — soft icy blue, cream, navy, brushed silver. Works for winter and Christmas weddings without locking you in.
Bookmark or pin it back to your wedding board. All 12 favors, the supplies, the labels — it stays here so you can come back to it on your phone at Target.
