Wedding & Event Favors
How Are Wedding And Event Favor Magnets Different From Personal Photo Magnets?
Quick Answer
Wedding and event favor magnets are the same core product, a durable, hand-pressed photo magnet, but sold in event-scale quantities (50, 100, or 200 packs) and, for the 200 pack, offered with live, on-site pressing at the reception itself rather than shipped ahead of time.
The Full Picture
The standard photo magnet packs (5, 9, 25) are built around personal use, gifting to family, building a fridge gallery, giving a handful of magnets to a few relatives. Wedding and event favor magnets scale the same underlying product up to match guest counts, since a wedding favor needs enough units for every guest or every household attending, not just a handful.
The pricing structure reflects that scale, a 50 pack at $124.99, a 100 pack at $229.99, and a 200 pack at $449.99, working out to a lower per-unit cost as the order size grows, which matters for couples budgeting favors across a full guest list.
The most distinctive option in the event favor line is the live, on-site pressing available for couples in and near the Twin Cities area getting married. Rather than shipping a box of pre-made favors ahead of the wedding, Snapped Memory Magnets can press the magnets live at the reception itself, turning the favor into part of the event experience rather than just a box of party favors sitting on a table. This only applies to couples getting married near the Twin Cities, given the logistics of an in-person, on-site setup, but for those within range, it's a genuinely different kind of favor than a pre-shipped box.
For couples outside that live-pressing radius, or planning an event elsewhere in the country, the standard shipped pack options (50, 100, 200) work exactly like a personal order, just at wedding scale, and can use engagement photos, a save-the-date image, or any other photo the couple wants guests to take home.
Pro Tips
- If you're getting married near the Twin Cities, ask about live on-site pressing well before your wedding date, it changes both the guest experience and the planning logistics compared to a pre-shipped box.
- For guest counts near a pack size threshold (just over 50 or 100), consider whether rounding up to the next pack size makes sense versus running short on the day.
- Mixed designs are available even at event scale, some couples use one main engagement photo plus a couple of secondary shots.
- Order confirmation photos and final counts well ahead of your event date, since wedding timelines don't leave much room for last-minute reprints.
- If you're unsure whether the 200-pack contact-for-mixed-designs option fits your specific event, reach out directly rather than guessing at checkout.
A Real-World Scenario
A couple planning a wedding just outside the Twin Cities opted for the live on-site pressing option with their 200-pack order, and guests were able to watch their own magnet get pressed with the couple's engagement photo during the reception, turning a normally passive favor table into an actual moment of the event that guests remembered and talked about afterward.
When to Reach Out
Bottom Line
Wedding and event favor magnets are the same trusted product scaled to guest-list quantities, with the live on-site pressing option, for couples near the Twin Cities, offering something genuinely different from a standard shipped favor box.
