These candy bags labeled “his favorite” and “her favorite” are popular for several reasons, top being a sweet treat guests will love and an easy way to keep your favor budget smart.

Why His and Hers Wedding Favors Are a Most-Loved Pick

This style of favor packs in meaning and simplicity:

• It reflects both you and your partner: each gets their “favorite” candy spotlighted.
• Guests feel invited to pick the one that resonates: “Oh, I know her favorite candy!” or “His favorite: chocolate!”
• It looks cohesive on a candy buffet or favor table, especially when you use matching labels and clear treat bags.
• Edible favors often get eaten, not forgotten in a drawer. In fact, some couples report nearly zero leftovers when they do candy bags.

Select your candy

Pick two distinct types of treats that reflect you both. For example: his favorite might be chocolate covered pretzels, mine would be gummy bears. :) I highly recommend ordering here: it’s the best pricing I’ve found so far.

Decide quantity & placement

• If you expect each guest to take both “His” and “Hers”, you’ll need roughly twice your guest count in bags. Some couples offer just one bag (either or) to reduce quantity. I highly recommend placing them in a basket near the entry of your wedding or by the dessert table to ensure guests don’t miss it. Most guests take one of each, so be sure to order more than enough.
• Use a simple spreadsheet: guest count x 2 if “both”, plus ~10% extra for buffer.

Assembly & Display Tips

• Purchase your candy in bulk ahead of time so you’re not scrambling or over-spending as you approach the big day.
• Fill your bags a day or two ahead of the event to avoid last-minute stress.
• Apply stickers or labels after you fill the bag so the top flap remains clear when sealed.
• Select bags that fit your candy volume: a 4″ x 6″ bag holds approx 1–2 cups of sweets.
• Display them either at each guest’s seat, at a dedicated treat/favor table, or near the exit so they can grab one on their way out.

Last-Minute Notes

“His and Hers Favorite” candy bags are more than just a favor: they become part of your story and they’re something guests actually enjoy! You get to pick the treats and keep things budget-friendly. Plus, it’s one DIY you can tackle so easily (and know they’ll come out looking fantastic!)
