Wedding favours

Just wondering if people still do wedding favours and what you have or plan on doing? I’m conflicted about it, I feel like that money could be spent elsewhere. Is it a thing of the past?!?!

    I'm going to add to what I said. If you have more money to spend (I.e. it's in the budget as others said), look where in your guests experience you could be making it better. A photobooth is the only favour I've ever enjoyed or haven't left behind (edible favours are fine but are you not serving enough food and dessert? That's not a favour...) and it's a photo memory to take away from the wedding. I may get some flack for this but if a couple is having a cash bar but also did useless favours, wtf? Spend that on subsidizing some of the drinks for guests at least! We had a four course meal, photobooth photos taken by one of our photographers, table wine, open bar, cake, late night food.... we figured that was enough and favours would just be left behind/unnecessary.

    I plan on making little jars of jam as favours. We also have a photobooth booked so the guests will get that as well.

    Its within our budget so we are doing favours. Just our fav chocolates Ferrero Rochers, Mini Reeses Mini cups. Plus there is a polaroid station for the guests to take 2 pics, 1 for them and 1 for us.

    We had it in our budget so we did wedding favors. We had little chocolates with a note and some dried flowers on it that said "Love is Sweet". We also gave guests lottery tickets in an envelope that said "we hope you get lucky tonight". I think it's nice to have guests go home with something from the night but I would be against anything with our names and wedding date on it.
