Custom Matches as Wedding Favors: Quantity & Personalization
Custom matches have quietly become one of the most popular wedding favors — small, useful, beautiful on a welcome table, and a perfect surface for a monogram and date. Here’s how to order them so the count and the design come out right.
How many to order
Order by guest count, not table count, and add a margin for the welcome table, the sparkler send-off, and keepsakes. A working guide:
| Guests | Favor boxes | + Send-off / spares | Suggested order |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50 | 50 | 20 | 100 (our minimum) |
| 100 | 100 | 40 | 150 |
| 150 | 150 | 50 | 200 |
| 250 | 250 | 75 | round to 300 |
What to print
The classic is a monogram or first-names-and-date on the box face, with a short line on the back — “Let the adventure begin,” “A perfect match,” the venue, or a hashtag. Keep it to two type sizes and one or two colors; foil on a matte box reads expensive and photographs beautifully under string lights.
Personalizing each box
For place settings, you can take it further: send a spreadsheet of guest names or table numbers and we’ll personalize each box individually so it doubles as a place card. It’s the kind of detail guests pocket and remember.
Order to guest count plus ~30% for the send-off and keepsakes — 100 boxes is our minimum. Foil on a matte box is the photo-ready favorite, and per-box names turn favors into place cards.
Send your names, date, and colors and we’ll mock up your wedding matchboxes free, usually within one business day. Comparing formats? See custom match sizes.
