Wedding favours: A cute way to thank your guests or just another sneaky wedding expense?
At first, they seem like a small part of the budget—until you realise you need one for EVERY guest and suddenly, you’re contemplating whether giving them a heartfelt high-five counts as a wedding favour.
So, how much should you actually spend on wedding favours in Singapore? Should you go budget-friendly, splurge on something fancy, or skip them altogether? Let’s break it down.
💰 The Average Cost of Wedding Favours in Singapore
Here’s a rough guide to how much wedding favours typically cost per guest:
💸 Budget favours: $1 - $3 (affordable and functional, but nothing fancy)
💎 Mid-range favours: $3 - $8 (good quality, cute packaging, Instagram-worthy)
🚀 Luxury favours: $8 - $20+ (bespoke, custom, or edible treats in premium packaging)
Most Singaporean couples spend around $3 to $6 per favour, which is a safe middle ground—affordable enough to not feel painful, but still nice enough that guests don’t just chuck it in their bag and forget about it.
🏆 How to Choose the Best Wedding Favour for Your Budget
Instead of just throwing money at random gifts, think about these three questions:
1️⃣ Will my guests actually use it?
