When Should You Order Personalised Event Favours?
Share
Personalised event favours are made for a specific celebration, so timing matters. The exact lead time depends on the product and quantity, but planning early gives you more room to check personalisation, delivery and any last-minute changes.
Why personalised favours need planning
Unlike an off-the-shelf item, a personalised favour may need names, dates, artwork or other details to be prepared before production. Larger quantities can also take longer to prepare.
A simple ordering timeline
Start by choosing your style
Decide on the type of favour, colour palette, quantity and personalisation before you are close to the event date.
Confirm your guest numbers
Use your latest guest list to work out how many favours you need. If appropriate, allow a small number of extras.
Check the product lead time
Read the current production and delivery information on the individual product page. Do not rely on a generic timescale because different products can require different preparation.
Leave time for checking
If possible, allow time after delivery to check names, quantities and the overall condition of the order before your event.
What if your event is soon?
If you have a fixed deadline, contact the supplier before ordering. Give the product, quantity and date you need the items by so the available options can be discussed.
