A personalized guest favor can cost less than €2 per person without looking cheap: happy tears tissue packs from €0.85, temporary tattoos at around €1 per guest, earplugs at €1.50 or kawaii stickers from €1.10. Here are my 7 ideas, all handmade in my workshop in Paris and available from a single piece.
Which guest favors can you give for under €2?
| Favor | For which moment | Price per guest |
|---|---|---|
| Sparkler tag | Send-off, first dance | €0.80 |
| Tissue pack in a vellum sleeve | Ceremony | €0.85 – €1.10 |
| Engraved wooden place card | Meal, then keepsake | €0.90 |
| Temporary tattoos | Cocktail hour, party | about €1 – €1.40 |
| Kawaii stickers in your likeness | Favor boxes, welcome bags | €1.10 – €1.80 |
| Earplugs in a sachet | Dance party | €1.50 |
| Fan tag (on your own fans) | Outdoor ceremony | €0.80 |
1. Happy tears tissue packs (€0.85 – €1.10)
It's the simplest and most touching guest favor: a tissue slipped into a vellum sleeve with your names and date, placed on every ceremony chair. My fixed-layout designs, such as “To dry your tears of joy”, cost €0.90; the vellum pouch starts at €0.85 without a tissue. They can be ordered from a single piece, then in multiples of 5. To choose the design and quantity, read my guide to personalized wedding tissues.
2. Temporary tattoos (about €1 per guest)
A sheet of 50 fine-line tattoos costs €14 and covers 10 to 15 guests, or about €1 to €1.40 per person. Set up as a tattoo bar during the cocktail hour, they become an activity as much as a favor. For 80 guests, 6 sheets (€84) are enough.
3. Earplugs in a sachet (€1.50)
The touch that always gets a laugh: a pair of soft foam earplugs in a sachet with your names, set out near the dance floor, in welcome bags or on the pillow if your guests stay overnight.
4. A wooden place card guests keep (€0.90)
The laser-engraved wooden place card with each guest's name does two jobs: it shows them to their seat, then goes home in their pocket as a keepsake. One item, one budget.
5. Kawaii stickers in your likeness (€1.10 – €1.80)
I draw your kawaii stickers from your photos, with your names or favorite phrase. The price drops automatically with quantity: €1.80 from 21 stickers, €1.35 from 41 and €1.10 from 91 (minimum 5 pieces). To hand them out in a playful way, my sticker machine can be rented anywhere in France.
6. Sparkler tags (€0.80)
For the send-off or first dance, my 3-in-1 tags hold the sparkler, present the match and include a striker, with your names and date. Allow €0.80 for design 1; sparklers are on your side.
7. A fan tag on your own fans (€0.80)
Already have fans? I can send just the personalized tags, with your names, date or ceremony program, at €0.80. With the wooden fan included, allow €2.80.
And for a little over €2?
The engraved clay magnet costs €2.50. To stay on budget, give one per household rather than one per guest: for 80 guests, about 45 magnets are enough. More ideas in my article 7 personalized guest favor ideas, and the full stationery budget in how much does wedding stationery cost.
FAQ
What budget should I plan for a wedding guest favor?
A personalized guest favor can cost from €0.80 to €2 per person with my creations. Plan one per guest for tissue packs or earplugs, and one per household for keepsakes like magnets.
Can I order small quantities?
Yes, everything can be ordered from a single piece, except tissue packs, which then go in multiples of 5, and kawaii stickers, which start at 5 pieces.
Are the favors really handmade?
Yes, I make them myself in my workshop in Paris, specially for your order, after you approve a proof sent within 24 to 48 hours.

I recommend ordering 8 weeks before the wedding. Production takes 1 to 5 business days after approval, then shipping 1 to 2 business days with tracking.
